I know youth camp 06 was like 2 years ago but I still find this amazing event really...amazing. Freda and me still actually d have a slight connection that started since then.
"It was on the second night of our Youth Camp 2006
After the post-praise and worship session was our reflection time
I saw Jesus, sitting on a particular spot in the room,
(This was after some people had already left the room)
He was in a pathetic state, sitting down and suddenly I was in a busy street.
He was rocking himself gently, trying to attract the attention of the busy people in the street, yet at the same time, trying to hide himself as if he was ashamed of how he looked. He looked broken and homeless. Dirty and neglected.
I was there,
I just felt there .
I was watching him and then he looked at me
His eyes were a crystal light blue with black specks in them.
Then he asked me a question with those shocking eyes:
What about you? ?
Jesus was sitting there, like a homeless person, and multitudes of people walked pass him like they couldn't see him, or didn't want to- their eyes just slid over him.
Then I saw him stand up and walk over to Freda
Freda was sitting next to me with her head in her knees
I wondered if she was sleeping
Suddenly, a bit of noise came from within her and I saw Jesus bend down and hug her
She started sobbing a bit
Then I got an image of Freda as a little girl in the corner, vulnerable, crying
The walls were white
Then Freda got up a left
And Jesus came to sit down next to me
We sat there, I held out my hand to him, we sat side by side, watching people walk past
And I felt him say, with his eyes stay with me...stay with me a little while longer...stay with me...
Then after a while, I went out
Suddenly, I needed to tell Freda what I saw,
I was wondering if I should have told her in the room
go over to her and say
"Freda, I can see Jesus hugging you..."
But I didn't
Later on I asked Joy for her
Then I saw her come out of the toilet, all panicked because there was a cockroach in the toilet
I took her and told her "Freda, I saw Jesus hugging you"
And she just stared at me for a moment before saying "I, I saw him!! I saw him hugging me too!"
We both stood there, too amazed to speak.
What stood out in this experience, is that I saw Jesus as a person
Usually he in my comforter, but this time I saw him as a person
You know, this whole experience, it didn't strike me until I told this it Geri
And it suddenly became real, it made me realise how real this is,
You know, Geri told me something like how we never are aware
that each time you sin, you drive another nail through Jesus on the cross
Freda did tell me later on, that she was mad at God a bit, and that I was singing my heart out
And why can't I sing like that?
And she was also looking for a sign that it wasn't just happening in her mind
I, myself, during the Praise and Worship session, I was singing, but somehow, I felt a bit detached
I was a bit frustrated at why I didn't feel the closeness I feel usually
So, it was confirmed that what happened was real, and that Jesus was really there
That it wasn't just my imagination trying to imagine things because I wanted to feel God there
Neither was it Freda's
It really happened."
Ever since then, Freda and me have a certain spiritual connection. There have been instances when we've shared the same images of things in our minds and stuff like that
So thats my testimonial. Of 2 years ago
