Have you reached a level of faith&prayer yet where you will sometimes laugh&/or cry for unknown reasons or to someone looking at you the reason for your laughter or tears is not readily apparent?
In the last...3/4 months I guess:
1.There was a time where my dad was playing the piano&he,me&my mom were singing some songs&worshiping God(Jesus);and during one of the songs,I started to laugh.No other reason than just the presence of God was there&I was enjoying it.
2.A few weeks ago while at Church,while praise&worship was going on,a storm outside knocked out the power,lights&everything.Well everybody stayed&we continued the worship in the dark,with only a few candles&flashlights.About the middle of the song,there's no doubt in the mind the spirit of God was there;cuase tears started to roll down my eyes.I wasnt sad or anything,I just started to cry;there just little to no way to really describe when you know in your spirt&in your heart that God is there.

that emailed me,claims to be a practicing medium,I emailed her back about what I thought about it and what God says about it.But later I took some time to pray for her;never met her,dont know her name,dont know where she lives;but I prayed for her&deep into my prayer,I was praying kinda pasionately&fervently,&once again I started to cry becuase my spirit&heart just knew God was there.
Have you come to the place in your walk with God that you're that intimate with God?

Sometimes when I am listening to praise and worship music I start to cry. I remember what God has done in my life and it touches me deeply. Especially that he saved my father. Dad passed away at 91 and four days before he died (he had been an unbeliever all his life), he finally accepted Jesus Christ. An answered prayer that I will thank the Lord for all the rest of my life! Yes, those sorts of things bring tears of gratitude, for sure.

I know exactly what you mean. You feel God's presence and you just start crying and even laughing at the same time. My dad did on Thursday. He started a church right here and we had prayer, and he just started crying and laughing. There's nothing like being in God's presence. Praise God. Email me and we can talk more about this.

THE first man mentioned in the Bible as walking with God was Enoch. The second was Noah. The record tells us: “Noah was a righteous man. He proved himself faultless among his contemporaries. Noah walked with the true God.” (Genesis 6:9) By Noah’s time, mankind in general had deviated from pure worship. Still, Noah proved himself faultless and was “a preacher of righteousness.” (2 Peter 2:5) When God commanded him to build an ark for the preservation of life, Noah obediently “proceeded to do according to all that God had commanded him. He did just so.” (Genesis 6:22) Truly, Noah walked with God. The apostle Paul wrote: “All Scripture is inspired of God.” (2 Timothy 3:16) Through the pages of the Bible, Jehovah tells us clearly: “This is the way. Walk in it.” (Isaiah 30:21) Obeying God’s Word helps us to ‘keep strict watch on how we walk.’ (Ephesians 5:15) Studying the Bible and meditating on what we learn enable us to “go on walking in the truth.” (3 John 3) Truly, as Jesus said, “the spirit . . . is life-giving; the flesh is of no use at all.” The only reliable guidance by which to direct our steps is spiritual guidance, which comes through Jehovah’s Word, his spirit, and his organization.

Beautiful, just beautiful! What a beautiful touch of God in your life! Continue your relationship with Him and you will get closer to Him (Hebrews 10:22 NIV). Don't let anyone make you think otherwise. This is your personal relationship with Him. NO ONE can take that away from you.
So awesome. God Bless You!

I've heard of many people being filled with the Holy Spirit and/or sensing God's awesome presence, and just being overcome with joy and laughter, or even tears...
Just be careful though...don't start laughing thinking that it will bring you closer to God...it's the closeness of God that can bring you laughter...

I think that is a reflection of
Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.
Too often we compartmentalize our faith and fail to love God with our whole being. But it should be like the song says:
I'm Yours, Lord, everything I've got
Everything I am, everything I'm not
I'm Yours, Lord, try me now and see
See if I can be completely Yours

Praise God! Keep on the straight and narrow. The challenge is to cling even when the emotional times are not there.

Yes. I find the closer I get to God the more I weep. I feel undeserving of his love/forgiveness/understanding and that is why I weep. He humbles me.
