a little story

[pinkpirate]

i was in my bedroom crying my little eyes out a few months ago, about my dad cause hes really sick (has multiple personality disorder). it was raining really hard and it was completely black outside...as in night time lol. anyways, i had prayed for about an hour before crying myself to sleep...which is a long time when your crying your little heart out. i suddenly felt a hand on my right shoulder (was laying on my left side) and it felt warm, this hand on my shoulder but the rest of me was cold. i then heard a male voice whisper to me, "you are not alone. i shall never leave you, nor forsake you." i looked to see who it was and no one was there....my shoulder still remained warm for another 30 seconds and then it went cold again. i got a good nights sleep that night....i know it was definately God

That's a really comforting story! It is similar to mine. I woke up from a dream, which wasn't a bad dream, but was about something that had happened in my life that was hard to deal with. I was sad about it. Just as I opened my eyes, I heard a voice that said the same thing! "I love you, and I will never leave you nor forsake you." I blinked my eyes, and rubbed them, because the voice sounded audible, not in my head. I thought someone was there, and then the voice repeated the same thing! I bolted upright, because it definitely was audible, and just then a cool breeze came through the open window, and no one was in the room. It took me a while to get back to sleep again, because I was puzzling over what had just happened.

After that, some more things happened in my life that was pretty bad - tragedies, actually, and the loss of a family member over the next few months. I kept thinking about that voice, and what it said to me that night.
