There are many different ways to experience God; some people
can see a beautiful sunset or a night sky and see His hand at work, whereas
others can see God’s presence in the good deeds of others. For me, I
experienced God the most when I visited Spring Harvest, a meeting of thousands
of Christians in the convenient location of Skegness (Butlins...). Being with
so many other people who all believe the same as me and were happy to talk
openly about it was fantastic.
One day, during a prayer of devotion (everyone offering
their lives to promote the love of God) I suddenly felt this amazing bond, as
though I realised now what I’d never realised before. I had always been told
that God loved me; that He had sent His son Jesus, who had died for me, and
that one day I would understand His big plan for myself. But now, after this amazing experience I realised how true this was, and how much it meant that God wanted me to be part of his team*. This may all sound
ridiculous to you, but being with so many other people who were all worshipping
together made me realise how important I was to God, and how much He loves me. It
has helped me to see live in a completely different way.
