Man, feels like yesterday. We met originally at a wedding rehearsal Sept. 23, 1996. But now It was Easter 1998. We were at Ridgley COGIC located at ninety thirty five… LOL…. It was packed in church like all other major holidays. I had on a cute tan color mini skirt and matching top with 3 inch white sandals. My hair was curled, my nails were done, you know… The typical Easter stuff.

You bid me to come to you and I did. I met you at the alter. I’m thinking we couldve done this at my seat. I was nervous at first cause I didn’t want anyone else to see me. Someone prayed for me. I started crying because you told me how beautiful I was without all of the “stuff”. As you touched me, my mind went blank and all I saw were white (brightness). I open my mouth to speak and the words arent right so I stop talking. I don’t want you to think I’m crazy.

Now the Co-Pastor is in here and she’s telling me to speak. I can’t open my eyes cause I’m trying to see your face. Now I feel like my world is spinning and my body isnt mine. What’s happening? Is it supposed to feel this way? I like this feeling. Now the words are seeming to make some kind of sense.

I open my eyes and now there are people around me with a sheet and praising your name… Now I feel like a woman and I can walk on clouds. I look down at my clothes and am ashamed. I’m not worried about my curls and I could care less who sees me cause I was just baptized in the Holy Ghost for the very first time 😉
