The Day of The Lord Disturbed

As usual on a Wednesday I come to the church late because of the transport. I then sit at the back of the church avoiding to walk in and disturb the members. I normally enter the church when the pastor is preaching. So, yesterday I came in and it was normal for me and I sat down. The pastor was preaching a very strong message and it really made me want to be close to my God.

In no time he asked us to stand up and seek the Holy Spirit. I made sure that I poured my heart to God and I don't let anything disturb me. I was so deep communicating with my Lord and I was asking for His Spirit when suddenly I felt like opening my eyes. It was strange because it is something that never happened. When I opened my eyes, I realised that my bag was gone and only the flowers I had were left.

I looked around to see if my bag was maybe with someone I knew and guess what I saw: a lady walking out of the church with my bag and her bag on her shoulder. I ran to her and I asked for my bag and she held on to it and said she wants money for food.

I have to be honest, i was not happy with her. More when I found out that she is not coming to the church. I was not worried about what she was going to do to me but about her soul. Remember, everyone in the church is seeking God and she comes in and decides to rob them. God was there and He was protecting His children as they were seeking Him. I really felt sorry for her. More especially that the people in the church are giving tithes and are faithful to God. It was possible that she did not have an opportunity to use that stolen money because she was upsetting the Holy Spirit.  

We have to watch and pray lest we fall asleep.

Stay blessed.
