Tears in PE class


I remember the first time I finally got this verse. I was 16 years old, and the love of Abba swept over me like I had never known before. I had always loved God, and knew He loved me. But, this was different. His love for me became all-consuming. It's like the window shade to my soul opened and finally the full light of His love for me shone through.

I was different. His love consumed me, so I was changed. There was a friend of mine that I was trying to reach for Christ. I witnessed to her, gave her religious tracts, begged her to come to church with me, was a general pest, I imagine.

Everything changed the week I began to know the love of Abba for me and for my friends. My friend could see into my 16 year old mind and heart and see something was different. We sat together in PE class, and were just quiet. Suddenly, she laid her head on my lap and started weeping. Her father had beat her mother again, she was forced to call the police on her dad the night before. She always held the rage of those happenings inside before.

This time she knew she was safe and loved because I was safe and loved. It was the first time I ever felt the love of Abba for me reach out and touch the life of some one I cared about deeply.

That moment in PE class changed me forever.
