LifeLine

On a cold winter January day, 1995, suddenly a powerful force of misty white, cloudy-looking substance swiftly swirled around me like a whirlwind and lifted me upward, higher and higher into the sky until I found myself standing inside of God Himself. He was more real than anything I had ever known. For the first time in my life, I felt totally loved, whole and free with unspeakable joy, like I was finally at home where I belongs. It was the most powerful experience I ever had in my life; but as powerful as that experience was it did not stop me from committing the one sin, I said I would never commit; and when I postponed, delayed listening to God's tender warnings, as a result, I plunged deeper into sin and suffered mental torment and terrifying consequences. Nevertheless, because of the great Love of a Mighty and Compassionate God He threw out the Lifeline and drew me in from sin and danger back to peaceful shores.
