Consolation By God

Waking up this morning and not feeling my toes and fingers was weird. Was It because It was still asleep ? No, it was actually because the weather had dropped a whopping 47 degrees. That was the coldest It had been since fall started; Which was only a couple days ago. Nevertheless, to add more icing on the cake, hearing my mom scream "WAKE UP"!! In the background wasn't pleasurable either. Anyways while walking to school, I had the strangest encounter. Not with a human being, but with God. Usually while I'm strolling my way down the streets I'm always ecstatic. I'm singing, enunciating, and praying to the lord, thanking him for breathing his breathe of life into me, for his new mercies, and for his unfailing love. I did that but somehow i wasn't feeling his presence. For some peculiar reason, I didn't feel that special tingle of his spirit. Did I mess up in any way, I wondered? I was a bit petrified because I hate when I hurt the heart of God. I said to the Lord, "please bring me back to where i first met you". In the streets of Rockaway, I longed for the spirit of Jesus, but nothing happened.

At the end of 3rd period I sat at my desk and felt dreary while watching my boring law teacher talk about humans vs. weapons. Instead of paying attention to the lesson, my mind was on Jesus. I was thinking about If I had hurt him in any way. At a moment of despair I felt a tiny touch. I started feeling that special tingle again, the spirit of the Lord was coming. I could feel it. A second after, my teacher blabbed out a quote saying "Hold a gun, like you hold the bible". However no one understood, but i knew exactly what that quote signified. What he meant was the bible was sharper than a double edged sword. Nothing can be more treacherous than the true word of God, not even a gun. I heard the Lord speaking; saying, "I am always with you, I will never leave you nor forsake you, I forgave you long before you knew It". I was awestruck, His grace still amazes me. Without a glance, the student In front of me, turned around, looked me in the eyes and said "I'm Christian" out of the blue. I was excited because I knew there was a saved soul sitting in front of me and i could finally bond with a brother and talk about the goodness of the Lord. There was probably more children of God in that class, but I knew that God had purposely planned my day out like this. Now hopefully when I'm done with high school I would have shared 3/4 of the Gospel with every individual in that school. That's my goal !

PS. And my law teacher actually thought I was doing great in class today, he gave me 10 points on my grade for I don't know what !! Was It coincidence ? I don't think so . It was my Jesus, again !
