Re: Bet I'm The Only One On AFF That...

I'm probably the only one that:

Drove up to a church building that was occupied with another denomination's congregation, felt the Lord tell me to call the pastor and ask him to sell the building to us, did and a few months later were having church in it.

Dreamed about wearing a pink pair of pants, got up and drove to Goodwill and saw a pink pair jutting out and, not knowing what size I wore, grabbed them and put them on and they fit perfectly. Bought them and put them on occasionally praying about the significance of the dream back when I was an ultra-con.

Dreamed about moving to our current state, told my husband who called the presbyter, tried out at the church, got voted in.

Hadn't seen my brother in 2 years (nobody knew where he was) and got into intercessory prayer for him one day, felt the heavens open up and spoke directly to him in the spirit realm asking him to come home and my Mom called a couple days later telling me he came home.

Went to a pastor installation where the pastor and his wife, who were friends of ours were being honored with many flowers etc. I cried on the inside because we were never honored with anything, it seemed like ever.....we always got the short end of the stick. God saw and on the way home, I found a dozen roses on the side of the road and put them on my table calling them "Roses from the Lord".

I rarely if ever talk about this kind of stuff.

Isn't that a compliment? You're apparently not a loser.

Re: Bet I'm The Only One On AFF That...

MY STORIES ARE JUST LIFE AS A MISSIONARY (PIONEER)

something else you might enjoy have went several times to different devil worshipping churches just to wait to talk to the witchdoctor about the LORD...

Went to make a visit and ended up taking communion with the Catholic priest...

A man from the Mafia gave me a housefull of furniture once...

The JEHOVAH WITNESSES ONCE LET ME GO OUT "EVANGELIZING" VERY MUCH AGAINST THEIR RULES...IT WAS AN INTERESTING EXERIENCE. (I HAD TO PROMISE NOT TO SAY ANYTHING..HA...)

Re: Bet I'm The Only One On AFF That...

Once, when door knocking, I came upon a man who was vacuuming nude with his front door wide open. He was "shocked" to see me standing there and ran and put some shorts on.

Another time, I walked up to a house and saw the front door was cracked open. As soon as I got up to the front door, a truck raced around a corner, picked up a guy up the street and raced into the driveway and I had three guys coming straight towards me. I was terrified and saw myself getting pushed into the front door. My best option was to walk straight towards the men. Also, fortunately, the neighbors were pulling in or out of their driveway at that very moment. The men asked me a question and I said "I don't know" and walked right past them. I went home immediately. I was very shaken.
