So, the miracle that happened at Kerrick made me think it might be a good idea to have a thread about all the crazy stuff like that happening to us. It doesn't have to be all spiritual and miraculous like what happened to Kerrick, if anybody wants to share anything like that with us, no matter if he/she interprets it to be something spiritual/miraculous or not, do feel welcome to do so!
I'll start off then, with something that happened to me today, not as epic as what Kerrick had, but still:
First off, I failed my school last year, so I have to do the year again. It means I'm now in a new class, in which I don't know anybody, which is really kind of annoying, because I had grown quite attached to my old class with which I had shared 5 years of high school al ready. So this morning, as I was cycling to school, I was praying about my new class, I prayed if I could perhaps share my faith or whatever this day, something positive.
So this day, in my Latin class, as I was translating some text, the three people sitting in front of me, out of nowhere, started a discussion about the final judgement, hell, based on something they red in revelations. Now that was kinda absurd for randomly happening in a highschool al ready; but then the guy sitting next to me joined in, so did I, and so did the two people behind me, ater the discussion I asked just how many Christians there were in my new class, it turned out at least half of my new class is Christian.....
Last year there were 4 out of 30...... including myself, and I al ready considered that blessed, most of my Christian friends had no Christians in their highschool class. It's just completely crazy that half of my new class are professing Christians, who arn't just raised Christian, but read their bible and know what they are talking about...... It's completely crazy to have a highschool class with half of the people being Christians, at least it is here in Holland. ;D
