Something Amazing happened! July 1, 2006

Well first of all i finished my exams yesterday..yeay!!!
Anyways today’s story is about something i never thought i would ever do… so for me this was so amazing that i thought i would share it with u…
Well our Church’s 125th anniversary was on Friday and today r youth group decided to have a youth programme (u know like worship time and some games and a time of fellowship) So anyways we started it off with a few games and then after some choruses were sung we prepared ourselves to listen to the sermon… it wasn’t r parish priest who was to give the sermon.. we had invited a priest from a different church… anyways this is my story….
well very often it is difficult to give a very good sermon that would captivate the people, and most often u find that ppl would often not listen or might even fall alseep half way through
….. Anyways it’s very rarely u get to listen to a great sermon that could really capture the congregation… anyways today was one of those rare days….
but b4 i continue i guess i must start at the beginning… i had a falling out with two of my very close friends, abt 4 or 5 years ago… we haven’t spoken since then, and even when we bump into each-other at a party or the big match or some place like that we never used to even look at each-others’ faces…. it was very easy to do this as they had really hurt me a lot… but as time heals all wounds i began to heal… slowly, but i was healing…. but yet i hadn’t forgiven them….. The Christians out there know that one of the great things abt being a christian is to be able to forgive and be forgive in return… anyways back to my story….
The priest began to teach us abt r relationship with God and with ppl and it went on like that with many illustrations and a lot of animated talk… he had managed to captivate us with his powerful msg… anyways some where along his msg he suddenly started speaking abt broken relationships…. i wont go into detail coz some of u may not understand all that am talking abt
so i shall stick to making this as simple a story as possible
He told us that many of us lie when we say the Lord’s Prayer… coz in it we say “forgive us r sins, as we forgive those who sin against us” Well how many of us have not forgiven those who have hurt us but yet say those lines when we pray… well he went on to talk abt rectifying broken relationships and so on… but the amazing thing is while he was talking i felt as if some one else was talking to me…. i felt God was speaking to me (laugh if u like but u couldn’t ever know how that felt unless u actually experience it urself) It just hit me so hard… I realised then and there that this was a msg for me… and my heart was no longer angry, and i was no longer stubborn nor too proud to forgive my two friends who had hurt me… it was an amazing feeling!! As soon as i got home i wrote to them to try to rectify the broken relationships……(isn’t the Internet wonderful
) Well what ever the out come mayb i’m glad i did what i did…..
God bless u all…..

May the Holy Sprit be with you always!
GOB BLESS U!
SORRY! I miss spelt again, I MENT GOD BLESS YOU!
Well, if we can, forgiving will spare us from most mental burdens we carry. But unfortunately being mere humans, we find it utterly difficult. Sometimes it may be due to our pride. But by forgiving, we’ll not only give others a chance, but also ourselves a big relief. We ourselves get the biggest benefit by forgiving others.
If we believe in God, than we must believe that happenings are always with the desire of God, accept it gladly as it is for betterment, love others as U love yourself, because God is every where and any where, the even was for betterment, and future even is also for betterment, always please others with smile, things will sett at its own.
