A God Moment
An article by 
I’ve been focusing so much on God that I’ve definitely begun to lose my ego. I’m humble and peaceful. It’s pretty incredible really and something I’ve never experienced before. My trust in Him is giving me these abilities that I never thought were possible. So I was on a plane from Atlanta to Boston earlier this week. I was reading a fantastic book by Mike Yaconell. He called himself a Kmart Minister. That alone gives you an idea of the kind of humor Mike had. Anyway, I’d begun the book a few weeks prior and got stuck in the first couple chapters. They were incredible. They were all about how so many Christians have become boring. That’s boring with their faith. This guy is pushing the limit on passion and living for God in ways that Jesus did.
Me being in this new place and super pumped up, I loved every word. I kept thinking to myself, why are all these people not “on fire” for the Lord? I mean, I feel 110% changed, shouldn’t there be this excitement in others too? I know there is, but it’s often hard to see until you break through the facade people put up. In fact, I bet there’s tons of people who love God intensely but don’t regularly show it. I hope I can surpass that point in my life someday.
So back to the book… it was called “Dangerous Wonder“. (I highly recommend it).
As I was on the flight which was delayed and long, I got to really catch up on getting ahead finally. The book brought tears to my eyes multiple times (another trick the Holy Spirit keeps playing on me without notice!). But there was one point during our flight where for some reason, even though it was a late afternoon – early evening flight, the last bits of remaining sunlight shone through the window next to me and began making a specific area on my book light up. It was just as I was reading the word “God”. I felt this intense feeling overcome me. Some might call it goose bumps. Some might call it the heebie jeebies. But I simply called it my God moment.
All I can say is WOW. I sure hope I get more of those. Even though it only lasted a few seconds, I felt warm and safe. Wow.

I'm a guy who's suddenly been given super powers. I call it the Holy Spirit. I went from an unbeliever to a passion filled follower. My new belief is giving me strength I’d NEVER felt before and the Holy Spirit is changing me, from the inside out. I wake up every day now, ready to take on the world for Him, not for myself. Oh yeah, and I do make typos and grammar errors so forgive me.
