THIS IS REAL

Right before testimony, I uncontrollably fell to my knees to praise.

1.30.99
'99 Youth Winter Retreat

Tonight, I felt a closeness to everybody. Something happened tonight that was so real. Great testimony time that ended w/ Jeff E. breaking down. I got down on my knees and prayed. God was just surrounding the room, CBC Youth had really grown. Jeff felt so abandoned and neglected and did not want to live. We all prayed for him in a group of guys including Brian, Paul, Victor, Young, Weiki, Kevin (from Wheaton), Carlos, Philip, Edwin, Derek. God told me to reach out to all those I didn't know. We really need to show welcome to everybody. Teresa was just sobbing. God showed all his Realness to everybody. He was just shining through to everyone's heart. It was so real, and almost everyone in the room could feel it. I felt so much love for everybody. I wanted to share about friendships. They work towards God, last forever. They are really worth fighting for to save. Praying should not be a ritual but something you've experienced and seen the power of scheduling - God can only be found in the slowness.

God showed himself to me tonight.
