Camille’s New Life

I wasn’t really expecting that my life will be changing after I have experienced the LSS. How it began? Here’s my story:
My parents brought me to their Life in the Spirit Seminar last Saturday and Sunday at Christ the King Seminary. So as expected, we had the initial stages of the programs where people testified and gave praises to God for their renewal experiences and other blessings. I listened to their talks, however, there were also times that I aimlessly looked at anything while seated on a chair.
Everything changed after the room illumination was slightly dimmed and the formal baptism started with all the chanting and singing of the “Come Holy Spirit” song. We were asked to close our eyes and follow what they say while we were on our seats, so we did. As I tightly-shut my eyes, I heard people singing or shouting praises or crying or uttering words that are absolutely foreign (“speaking in tongues” experience). Suddenly, someone gently held my arms and asked me to stand. I already knew what will happen because I witnessed my brothers’ baptism and they were doing the same thing. I heard few words “Shwooshooshoohoo”, Then a wind blew my forehead and I fell at my back. (It’s amazing, only the wind caused my fall.)
I was still drowning the “noise” with my own mumbling sounds when I, for no apparent reason at all, felt a strange heat enveloped my whole body. I hear myself saying “Alleluia” fast for many times. I can’t seem to move because my body is chilling and the next thing I knew, tears were slowly flowing down my cheeks. I heard Daddy came to me and said “I love You” while I was still fervently in my closed-eye prayer-worship. I wiped off my tears as Mommy helped me to get up.
Yes, as they say, it was the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gave me clarity of thought, peace of mind, and a real strange comfortable feeling. I’m still mystified of what i have felt until now. But I believe God’s great power is working for me to understand fully His plans for me. God is Great!
A day after the seminar, I was invited by a friend from other charismatic group or community aside from my parents’ to testify God’s love for me this coming Saturday. I felt that this is a follow-up call from God so I accepted it whole-heartedly because I know in my heart, I’ll be doing this for my love and service for Him. This is my new life. A life living further with the Words of our Lord, our GOD.
Now, i already feel and relate with this song:
“I never knew that it could happen
Till it happened to me
I didn’t know it before
But now it’s easy to seeIt’s a start
Of something new
It feels so right
To be here with you
And now looking in your eyes
I feel in my heart”Start of Something New, High School Musical
Thank You God for sending me to LSS. It is a Life Changing experience. I know I’m growing and transforming with Your grace, Your Holy Spirit. Alleluia! Amen.
