Well I've been going to church since I was little since my parents are christians, I'd listen to delirious? on the way there and back and sometimes sing there songs in church, I got baptised when I was 10 but didn't really think much of it until i asked myself, why did I do it, and what do i do next, i prayed this for about 6 months, nothing happened, but then I went to the delirious concert at loughborough on the kingdom of comfort tour, I was on the front row, giving it my all, just looking at all the people behind me, I thought to myself, look at these people, all here for one reason, GOD! I suddenly had goosebumps right through my body. And then Martin started to speak about his time in africa. He then said to ME! whats your name? I was gobsmacked. He asked abit about me and who I came with and all such as that. After I started to read out of the bible, Isaiah 58 v6-9 if i remember rightly. read it it's really good, it says,
"This is the kind of fast day I'm after:
to break the chains of injustice,
get rid of exploitation in the workplace,
free the oppressed,cancel debts.
What I'm interested in seeing you do is:
sharing your food with the hungry,
inviting the homeless poor into your homes,
putting clothes on the shivering ill-clad,
being available to your own families.
Do this and the lights will turn on,
and your lives will turn around at once.
Your righteousness will pave your way.
The God of glory will secure your passage.
Then when you pray, God will answer.
You'll call out for help and I'll say, 'Here I am.'
Then at the end of this he said to this Jacob, I was like ME? you want ME? to do this?
Then I felt a strong sense of peace,.
So I go to church as normal but about 3 months later I'm setting there getting prayed for, then the priest says, everyone here is special, and has there own talent, but I fell there's someone here that has great patiental to go out on the street and speak the word of God, and maybe go away to other countries, I just had goosebumps and an overwhelming since of the holy spirit. I'm praying that one day that'll be me.
