So I’ve decided to make little mini-articles about the miracles that tend to happen pretty often. Testimonies like these need to be spread far and wide in order for lost and lukewarm people to know how good God really is, and to emphasize how much he is really needed in our day-to-day lives. Here’s the first of many in what I guess you can just call the ‘Diary Of Miracles Posts’.

Like a week ago I’m driving from work to the store for some stuff that couldn’t wait and I see clouds that look weird as fuck. White but highlighted in grey underneath. I hit a few red lights and got pictures of them, anyway. So I get to the store and by then the hot and still day had went to pouring down rain and so much wind that I could barely walk across the parking lot. A shopping cart about barrelled into some guy’s truck but I caught it. Lots of other things were blowing around too. Two minutes after I get inside a tornado warning comes across my phone.

So, instead of hurrying I decide to take my time so it’ll be dry when I leave. But, as I work so much I can only take so long. I need to get home and get shit accomplished there. So when forty-five minutes later I had paid for my things and it was still raining, I was pretty irritated. I looked at the weather, and it was supposed to continue pouring buckets for a few hours. I could still see lightning coming down and hear the thunder cracking……….but whatever, I opened up my umbrella and decided I was leaving anyway.

Outside was how you would expect it to be during a storm, it looked dark even though it was way before time for that, and you couldn’t see that well between that and the rain. It was seriously nasty enough I thought I might get stuck once I started driving, until I remembered I had AWD on the car. The water was up over my feet……….in a dirty crusty Walmart parking lot. YUK. Talk about sickening. And it was freezing cold. The temperature felt like it had dropped 50 degrees since I had left work about an hour before. Luckily where I always park is on a slight incline, the only one in the lot. Only about half an inch of water there.

Right as I was coming up beside my car I felt the lightnight coming for me. Yes, FELT it. You can feel it coming like it needs something to connect to and it picked you as the unlucky target. I knew it was going to hit me, but luckily I was smart enough to be praying the whole way back to the car and so it was slightly redirected by the Lord and hit my umbrella handle rather than my hand. My hand kind of jolted forward and tingled and I saw a spark bounce off the metal part of the handle at about the exact second the thunder sounded. Minor heart attack (only figuratively), but I’m ok.

I just decided I’d put this miracle out there as a reminder to everyone to:

1. PRAY WITHOUT CEASING. and
2. ALWAYS BE MINDFUL THAT IF YOU AREN’T FIGHTING FOR THE SIDE OF GOOD YOU’RE FIGHTING FOR THE DARK SIDE, EVEN IF UNKNOWINGLY. It’s called Spiritual Warfare and it’s no fucking joke.

And as a P.S., I had just been working with a witch all day. And stood up for the Bible and the Holy Spirit to her face. Not in a rude way, but I had let her know what was what in my life and that I sure as shit wasn’t blind to the dark side and I knew how to fight it when she brought up “what denomination do you call yourself”? So, me being struck after that was in no way a coincidence. Just saying. And if I wouldn’t have been praying when it happened, it may well have struck my body instead of the umbrella handle. On the flip side, to me that’s some verification I’m a threat to Satan, and I like that shit!……….
