After that weekend, even though I didn't feel what I wanted, I still felt new. I still felt like I had a chance.
So I just kept my head up and hoped for the best. I prayed every night that I would feel the touch I wanted to. I remember that someone told me that he is just starting with me so I should be patient and wait.
After all that, I never been more excited to go back to church. It was my get away since then, it was how I got away from the world and lived in the presence of God.
I loved the feeling of that church so much. I wasn't big on churches that had over 500 people in it... But when you entered that church, it was warm, chill giving, and you could feel the holy spirit. I decided to ask my friend to come, because at the time, she wasn't the first person you would expect to go to church.
I really didn't know how to ask her, so I just asked a simple question... "Are you Christian?" She replied in a weary way, and said "Kinda", so I asked her of she wanted to come to church with me... She said no.
After that I tried and tried for about 3 months. She kept coming up with excuses, and saying one day that she would, and the next day be like "I have plans, sorry" But I never gave up. Day after day I would ask her, she finally said yes.
She came for the next few weeks and she was really touched. But through the process of this, I kept hearing a voice in my head saying "you can't do it, she will never come, just give up already." But then a voice would always interrupt the first one and said " don't listen to the ones who say you can't, I will help you, keep trying your best, and you will succeed." And I'm happy I listened to the second voice, because I helped save her from depression.I feel so happy because I can share my story, let me know what you think, and all of this is true, and remember GOD LOVES YOU!! ♥ ✝
