Several interesting things happened this New Year, in the presence of God.
I am still processing some of them. The most important is that i am now feeling well with some of the people from church, and I have that curiosity to learn more and more about Him.
The games and time we spent together was amazing, and most important I felt that God was there it us. I was used to go to New Year parties, or generally Team buildings where people need to drink in order to have fun, well...here all of this was not needed; people were naturally and genuinely interested in each other, and that made the athmosphere and time really special.
Something else happened which was unexpected. On the New Years Eve, we had a very deep moment of meditation and introspection in regards of 2013 as a year, and some of us wanted to share their experiences there.
I was impressed by the things people appreciate in their life, and I was more surprised to see that someone appreciated me. I know that I am appreciated by people, because i am helpful and funny, and i make people feel good, but this time this appreciation was different, because i believe it was an honest one.
The context of the appreciation was very interesting, correlated with a wicked heart, and how we as human find more pleasure in someone else as human, or in things but not necessary and not always in God.
Anyway it was an interesting and open perspective, which caught me by surprise, and there are very few people who can do this for me.
And then we continued to have fun, and to feel God's presence.
Second interesting fact happened the next day, when again there was an interesting discussion, and around 2 hours of One on One callibration.,
It was such a blessed time, just talking and thinking. Strangely there were moments of silence and they were not awkward at all. I did not feel the need to talk , to cover the silence, i felt the need to just enjoy it, and continue with my thoughts. I am amazed how this can happen with someone that I ve just met. Is something that happens rarely with people I know, but never with new people....until now.
I believe is God hand in this, taking me closer to Him, making me more curious about his nature, about his love, and about his plans.
And like the day was not blessed enough we had a circle of testimonials, where I ve finally came out of the seashell, and I ve told them my life. And i really hope that they were not scared, or disappointed or anything else.
Of course there was one part which was left unsaid, but I do hope I ll get the chance to share it with some of them. I was just afraid that if I go through with everything, they might be shocked.
What can I say?
I felt the connection with God, and with the people there, I am very happy that this New Year happened, and I am very thankful that God is putting new people on my path, people who I really need.
I wish I could stop the time now, and keep this feeling within me.
And God, if this is your plan, than make it happen.
Thank you!
