I Was Touched and Frightened

Yesterday while at service something brushed up against my arms twice. The first occurrence happened while I was praying with my eyes shut. The second occurrence happened while my eyes were open, and in both instances nobody was near me. It felt as if they rubbed a finger across my arm.

After service I went to Wendy's and ordered a number 2 (yum yum). I went home, ate, laid down on my bed and opened my bible to 1Timothy. I became very sleepy and laid my head on my arms, and here's what frightened me.

I awoke to hear my bible's pages move! I looked at my bible and I saw as the pages were turned to the book of Acts. I then looked down and saw red lettering text (Jesus words) and began to read them. It was as if God was speaking directly to me. I then Knelt down to pray and something rubbed against me again.


Anyone ever experience anything like this?







p.s. please don't ask about the scriptures

Re: I Was Rubbed And Frightened

Maybe...but I can't tell from your post if it's something you think is good, or bad?

And I am curious about the Scriptures. lol

Re: I Was Rubbed And Frightened

Yeah I think the scriptures might hold a clue

besides why mention them and then tell us not to ask about them

You know very well that we are going to ask when you say that

There are many red letter words in the book of Acts. It won't take a theology degree to figure that one out.

Well, since you were rubbed and frightened, I'm very sure I wouldn't ask - anything!

When I saw the title of this thread I thought someone might have been physically abused.

Never had this happen though I have seen and felt different things over the years. We can not ask about the verses? What a let down. lol
