It has to be a question for the ages. If I am a Christian, and am committed to Christ, how would I know that God has spoken to me? How would a humble human being actually realize that Christ touched them personally? I don't think that most of God's children see signs, or hear prophecy or have visions.. At least I suspect that at a minimum they don't every time God touches them. So how would you know?
Today in Church I felt a feeling that I have felt many times in the last couple of years, but always when I have my mind focused on God. On my personal relationship with Him. Not simply hearing the gospel, not simply in singing a song, or in hearing the message from our Pastor, but truly focused. Its hard to describe the feeling, but its something that is too big for me to hold on to. It always, always moves me to tears, its like my heart cannot contain my emotions and I wonder.... If Human love, that which I know, is the most joyous thing on this earth, then what would love from our God feel like? A thousand times stronger, a million, a billion? I think possibly that its something we cannot hold on to. When our creator loves, that emotion must just be more than we can imagine.
So in that time, when I focus, when I truly am thinking of my love for Christ, and all He did for me, I guess it should come as no surprise that I feel my heart want to burst and a tear forms in my eye. God is not necessarily telling me anything except....
I love you too son.
And after all, its the most important message of all.
