As I'm sitting in a chair in the corner of my mom's bedroom, she stepped out into the hall & I begin to lean down to finally take off my boots. The very second she left the room, I heard the deepest thunderous rumble, so deep I felt it rattle the entire room. Simultaneously, I felt a force push me back into the chair with both hands raised and in the air. The rumble continued into what sounded like 100 Blackhawk helicopters descending onto the roof of my mother's house. In an instant, a lightning bolt strikes the center of the room. It was not a flash, the bolt of lighting stayed as if an electrical current between two points. Then, a second bolt of lightning splits the first bolt right down the middle. And inside of the bolts of lightning, was the Christ. He commanded I gaze upon him, but somehow, also demanded me not too. He was of the MOST COMFORTING, LOVING, & BRIGHTEST LIGHT! As I somehow look & look away, I see His arms outstretched toward me, reaching into my chest. I see my arms & hands raised up into the air, & I was on fire. Flames rolled off of my entire body. I could see embers flying all around me, like when you throw a log onto a bon fire. His hands were on my heart, & he was burning my sins, clean away! His voice was as deep as thunder, yet still & silent. He told me many things & answered many more. In the best way that I can, I'll translate some of what He told me to do, & that was/is to “Tell of what Happened!”. He took the burden of guilt, self hatred, blame, & the question of “why”, in an instant. I had no idea how heavy those feelings were, until I stood up without them! The man who was an atheist sat down in that chair & died that night. And a brand new me, born again, stood up & out of the shell of what once. Now, I know that this is hard to believe, but I don't know you, & I have no reason to make any of this up. Only recently have I discovered that this has a name, it's called the Damascus Rd. Call, & I am doing what the Lord has ordered me to do, telling of what happened. Hopefully, this will reach any & all that it is supposed to. Jesus & I, both love you.
