Secrets: God's gift
My mother slept in bed with me for a couple of night. On the last night she slept in bed with me, I was awake. The pain in the brain was so sharp. It felt as if someone was drilling in there. At the same time, the pain felt like a sharp knife cutting me inside my brain. It was so much more painful than the time when I was 13-year-old and I accident slammed the car door shut on one of my finger. Yes, I am saying I felt like I was having a seizure.
I lie there silently. I didn't dare to wake my mother once. I didn't think to wake her. All I could think of my desire to sleep. She didn't have a clue what was going on in my body.
In the morning, I had gotten to sleep. I was so tired that even the pain could no longer keep me awake. It could no longer control me. I slept through the morning and the afternoon.
The night after the terrible pain, I woke up at three am in the morning. Not once, but twice. First moment I woke, I closed my eyes and go back to sleep. Then I am awoken again. Each time I woke, I saw beautiful bright light. It was a bright silver light in the room. It was like the light was made of crystal. To be honest, I have never seen anything so beautiful as that light. They sprinkle so bright and beautiful. It was like a white star was brought to me. It was a present to me. It was a blessing. Everything in the room, including my skin was silver.
As ill as I was, I was rather annoyed. I picked myself up and got out of the room. The light was also in the hallway. I couldn't escape. I was not afraid, either. So I went back into my room and lay in bed peacefully.
Like I said, the only reason I would get out of bed that night without any help come from the strength of God. The only reason I suffer no broken bone is because of God. The only reason I am alive right now, this minute, is because of God.
Please don't tell me that if I wanted to so bad, I could just lift my head at anytime. Please don't tell me I was pretending to be weak.
