I don't mind talking about it but I hesitate because it makes people uneasy. I think they are afraid to say the wrong thing, or just uncomfortable with death?

 

There was only one thing that I knew during this time. THIS> I don't know anything BUT that, God knows what He is doing. I may not understand but I do understand that He knows.

 

I can also tell you, that I needed God more than ever I needed him before. When I had to go to view her, I was in very much in need, prayed fervently and told God he HAD to help me. I did not pray "could you help". I grabbed on to the promise and He answered my cry. Hb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

I can tell you God's promises are true!

 

 I did not want to look at her in a casket. Talk about power, He gave me power to overcome, He gave me perfect peace! The first really wild SP event I preached at was kinda scary, (never done this before) The event passed and it was like a spiritual hurricane, but God put us in a space that was like a buble of peace. That is what it seemed like to me at the time. After the Funeral, some friends called to give me scriptures and a couple gave me the Psalms that talk of the shadow of His wings, and it hit me like a ton of bricks, that was the bubble I had been there before! His mercies NEVER fail!

PS 18:6- In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, ... He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
