Hi Pastor John,
I wanted to reach out and share an experience I had with Jesus earlier this week.
Tuesday after my first PT session, Margo brought me home, and I started doing my homework aka stretches. While doing my stretches, our YouTube was playing a mix of music, US getting the Holy Ghost, sermons, so on and so forth. Soon after finishing my stretches lying down, I stayed lying there. One of Aunt Donna’s songs came on “It’s Just Like You”. And I just got real still and let her song take over. Jesus spoke to me and told me to slow down and rest. Just slow down and rest. I knew at that moment life had been fast-pace and constantly busy with something. I knew then and there my injury wasn’t just by accident. It was Jesus showing me that slowing down needs to happen more often. In order for me to connect with Him, I need to slow down and rest. Yes, life happens, and you can start moving faster than normal. But are you going to slow down and hear Me talking to you. That’s what I felt, and in that moment, I knew He meant it in all things as well. Not just a back injury.
Goodbye for now,
Alex
