Have you ever felt the prescence...?

Question

of God and his love and strength so strongly, you were moved to tears? Love to hear your story.

Wow, I'm surprised at how many people haven't or rather feel that people who have are delusional. Trust me I'm sane.

I'm most of the time moved like that when I'm thanking him. When I, really paying attention how good he's been to me.

Answer 1

I sure have. A few months ago, my mother was injured at my cousin's christening party (an approx 30-something lb iron decoration fell and hit her in the head). I thought she was finished for sure, she was concious but that kind of thing can brain damage just about anybody. As she was rushed to the hospital, although she's felt pain, she turned out to be 100% okay in a time I thought I would lose her. God was right there, knowing that she would be okay when I thought I would lose her.

Years of being lonely in middle and high school to a family who barely understands me and in a town and school where most people were just so mean and bullied me around, I remember my senior year of high school my prayers were finally answered when who would be one of my best friends came along through a friend. This person was the first to truly understand me, listen to me, and somebody I can honestly I say I love dearly. That person has been my very best friend ever since and we do everything together, we've been through good times and bad. I pray for that person everyday and though we have falling outs I do truly believe it was a gift from God who knew what a rough time I was going through and how I needed someone to listen and be there for me (and likewise, I would do the same and help this person turn around as well).

Just seeing everyday beauty; the fall trees, the sky, the kindness of a stranger, really nice people smiling, all this stuff reflects God and his love for this Earth. It makes me wonder what all the mean, nasty people are doing here.

Answer 2

Omg yes! It usually happens on Sundays during Mass, when the father prays over the bread and says, “This is My body…”, and the cup, “This is the cup of My blood…”

Those words… so pivotal, so miraculous. I have to bow my head in reverence and awe each and every time. At that moment, it’s as if a change overtakes the air and I know that I am with Him, in His presence, body, blood, soul and divinity in the Blessed Eucharist. It is honestly the only reason why I go to church, just so I can see Him in the Holy Sacrament. Nothing compares. Nothing is more beautiful.

Praise Jesus and His Holy Church!

Answer 3

Oh my yes!

It was the first time I went to the Festival Of Praise (FOP). It was 1,000 catholic students meeting for two hours of worship and praise. They brought out the eucurist and they were talking and singing. I ended up breaking down into tears because God still loves me even though I denied Him for ten years. It was soooo awe-some. Happend a few times since then too.

Answer 4

yes, many times.

In prayer, at Holy Mass, at my Marriage Ceremony in Church, when I lived a Cursillo Weekend, when my first daughter was born. I truly feld God's presence on those occasion.

I will share one time in particular. At Mass, on one Saturday, the faces of everyone in attendance started to look the same to me. It was more than just having the appearance of being related. They each had the same face, and it was very real. Each face was unique in itself, but it was still the same face. At first it was very frightening, and I thought I was losing my mind. It then dawned on me that it was the face of Christ, and I was moved to tears.

Our Lord Jesus Christ lives in all of us. I have no doubt of that. We just have to let His love and His light shine through. Ever since that day, I can look at anyone--age, race, sex doesn't matter- and see the Lord Jesus. It is a special grace that the Lord has given me.

Answer 5

unlike a few other response i have. i go to a catholic school so we study religion and the previous day before our class retreat we learned that isaiah felt god not in a strong wind or fire, or storm but in a gentle breeze. so on our retreat we were having a reflection time and it was outside and i was laying down on this small hill and looking up at the trees and the sky and a gentle breeze blew by and before i was kind of cold because i didnt have my jacket but in that moment i was warm and i didnt actually cry but it was such a powerful moment. and i told my friend and she said she felt the same thing and i thought that was amazing

Answer 6

Many times, I also felt the conviction of the Holy Spirit while on my knees praying and couldn't get up. God is good and has answered many prayers for me.

Answer 7

YES!! OMG YESSS!

I have felt Him recently. AS my career as a choreographer in LA.. I have made many videos and what not. I also (recently) started to write about teachings that I have come up with.. THROUGH miracles.. I found that my teachings co-inside with "in the beginning" scriptures.

I felt His presence as soon as I saw the miracles that seemed to fit with eachother throughout my career till now.

I have my site up about the teachings and it shows how His presence has always been there with me.

when we look around at this world we live in and enjoy all its splendor and glory we see and feel god. when we look at our children laugh or take their first step we feel god, when we look to the heavenly skies on a dark night and see all the stars we see his power his strength.

when we look in the mirror each day we see his reflection.
we are all so wonderfully made each unique yet similar in so many ways, its hard not to be moved so much magnitude and love for everything. =)
