My Testimonial

Sara, it's a long story. but you know most of it. the first time i heard the voice of God 
speaking to my soul, it was in three songs by lionel richie. and i heard the words and 
a spirit came over me telling me what they ment and what the message was . and it 
was to fall in love with april. but at that time april was unwilling but i told her 
anyway what the spirit did in that song. later came other clues like in the bible code. 
i told momma and the family that i was going to marry april because it was writen in 
there in the words "john and april loving." but God found away to let me know that 
the "loving" part was not my name but a verb. hHe showed me that He did not lie. 
and He showed me through a game i bought not long ago. and then the ideal came 
to me that i should make a cross and put it where i got the bad news. well i made 
that cross. i put two sticks together painted them white. put some white silk roses 
on it with a picture of her in a gold frame. and a silver angel below it. with the words 
April My Beloved at peace. and a white teddy bear. i know she wanted it. it lays in 
her bed in my basement where i guess now it will stay. but when it was finished the 
next day i played a Gerald Levert CD that i had bought. and one song came on and i 
felt that same spirit again . the verse went "i'm gonna miss your face" and it let me 
be with my april for a while. like i said in the end it's a true story. why would God 
want to speak to me? and i asked Him and He said because i gave april to Him when 
i wanted to do things Gods way.
