Tonight, Matt spoke and during his sermon he was talking about Gods authentic love and how he is the ultimate love beyond anything else which is so completely true. Well he started talking about love and he looked straight at me and was saying how people in life just are searching for love constantly for someone to just say (while staring at me as though he was speaking it straight to me and for me) I love you I care about you I’m not using you for what I can get out of you I’m so glad that you came this week I am so grateful to just see you mean something to me I admire you and respect you and completely just encourage them for the great person of god they are going to be. And just a ton of stuff and it was sooo what I needed to hear that I teared up and almost began to cry… then afterwards we were doing worship and i was just going for it and he came over to me and touched my temples of my head as if he was idk putting something or praying something into me. And at a later time during worship he came over to me and put his arm around my shoulders and just told me to sing it out and just worship god and I did. And I felt just such a release from my troubles it was amazing and then in the end we were praying and we prayed for Aly and then Bryce then I asked for prayer and the entire youth group prayed for me and the youth pastors wife Jamie prayed specifically out loud for me and it was incredible because she prayed for all the right things with incredible discernment and in the end she came up to me and said that when she was praying she felt just an overwhelming since of god in my life and how he is going to completely use me and take me places and I can’t remember all of it and I wish that I could but after everything it was exactly what I needed to hear.. I need to change my life and refocus my goals and my focus from things of this world to him and his glory and love in my life.
