Man Child Birth - a.k.a kidney stones
I woke up at about 3:30am on thurs. morning in the worst pain that I had ever experienced in my life. I was in so much pain I was puking and at times really thinking that I would die. Sarah was in shock, worried, and not really sure what to do and I was in to much pain to think about anything at all. (i only wanted the pain to stop)
At that moment when neither of us knew what to do we were able to experience the love of God as we lived out what it means to be the church. sarah woke up some of our friends (people who are a part of our community) and asked them to come and pray for me. They came and gathered around me to pray for me. They continued to pray as they came together to figure out what to do next and as I walked around the house, layed in the fetal postion and occasionly got up to puke (because I was in so much pain). they all drove with sarah and I up to the hospital @ 4:30 in the morning. Stood next to sarah and prayed with her in the waiting room, stayed with me as I cryed out in pain, waited with me as we awaited the test results, talked to me when I was high on morphene and then rode home with us at 7:30 in the morning.
It meant the world to me to know that there were people who loved and cared for me this much.
Why is this a God sighting? Becasuse at this moment I was able to experience the love of God through the church (God's people).
Thank you God and thank you friends
