An evening with Paul Strong.

I’m going to bed, but my father tonight was talking about God after we saw “World Trade Center” and I told him about this vision I had years ago of Jesus that was extremely similar to the one in the movie, and I said earnestly, “Jesus is Alive!” which is corny, yeah. But that excites me.

My dad says, “I’ve seen Jesus too,” smiling, “I’ve seen Him. It’s like…when we see Jesus, that’s the reality, and this life we live is just a dream, distracting us from the real Truth…”

On the drive home a person cut me off, and I gave them the finger as a song about Jesus played in the background (a good song, mind you; Sufjan) and he says “son, why did you do that?”

“I didn’t mean to, it was just a habit.”

“Don’t do that, son. Don’t do that.”

That’s probably the first time my father has ever parented me.

I need to pray for him more than I do.

23/fe/USA wow, that really touched me, I once had a dream, or maybe I died, i don’t know, but anyway, I saw Jesus, and he spoke to me and told me to go back home, and he was sooo beautiful and there was light that came from within him, and I didn’t want to leave him, I then knew how I could be happy just worshipping God for all eternity, it is a love that is indescribable. I Believe !!

he was probably wanting you to use both fingers. >:)

I say good for your Father….he’s right on this one. Don’t do that, Son…don’t do that. WWJD? LOL! Sorry..just had to do that. No harm done 🙂
