Through some of the tradgic times in my life I believe when I was on my face crying my heart out to God ( which I call the highest place on earth, on my face at the feet of Jesus ) I believe God has even given me a vision, He picked me up and sat me on the Lap of His Love and was holding me. I could see me on His lap his white robe, I could see His hands, my ear was against His heart, I felt our hearts beating as one, but I could not see a face.
I needed that vision it was so awesome, we had just lost two of our precious children in an auto accident and a few years later our marriage did not survive the loss of our children. I begged my husband to stay in church and counselling with me, we did not need the grief of broken home on top of greif of losing our boys, but my husband listened to everyone else except God, and Godly counselling, I was devestated I found the highest place on earth at the feet of Jesus crying my heart out for God to "Please don't let me get bitter to turn the bitterness within me into something sweet as He turned the water into wine" Then I had that vision I seen God pick me up and set me upon the Lap of His Love and He was holding me. I don't care who thinks I'm crazy! If God had not of gave me such an awesome vision I don't think I could of survived all that heartache and greif. Im a survivor only because of the Love of God! He Loves us so much He has even inscribed our names upon the palms of His hands Isaiah 49:15-16
Isaiah 49:15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
Isaiah 49:16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
Praise God! Blessings! mommabear

How amazing! Thank you for sharing.
The first time I "heard" the Lord speaking to me was when I was first saved and I was reading the scriptures and trying to comprehend them. I came across "I have loved you with an everlasting love..." I said, "Lord, I can't understand what 'everlasting' means." Immediately and without thought, He said to me, "It means from eternity to eternity."
I'm so excited for all the times in the future when my Lord will take me by surprise and knock me off my seat in amazement, awe, and love with more "talks" with Him.
Again, thank you all for sharing your stories, words of wisdom, and scripture. I am happily His sheep from eternity to eternity.
