However, it is going to take me months to work through exactly what it means'<BR/><BR/>I like this idea of 'touchstone' event that leaves its mark on you - I have not thought about an encounter with God in this light. So often in my past an experience of God was being zapped by the Holy Spirit in a charismatic service which made you feel good for a few hours until the feeling wore off. My perception is a 'touchstone' encounter is a far deeper more transforming one. I had a 'return to faith' encounter<BR/>with God four years ago which still deeply resonates with me (after 10 years out of the church).<BR/><BR/>adios for now,<BR/><BR/>RodneyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20471270.post-1161689874517239732006-10-24T12:37:00.000+01:002006-10-24T12:37:00.000+01:00Trying to find words for the experience of God tou...Trying to find words for the experience of God touching your life in such a direct way is very difficult. For me it works best to keep these touchstones in my heart and think of them, cherish them in happy and in difficult times. They are reminders of a God who is both close and holy, loving, and who knows exactly what we need and when we need it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
