Opis

Truth Is Something That Happened In August 1994 while on vacation in London, England, the author has a supernatural encounter with the The Lord Jesus Christ, at one of the most unlikely times---while traveling on a double decker bus. On this bus, with her cousin Lyneth, she meets up with a prophetess. This meeting becomes the catalyst that begins her new walk with God. "We got on an almost empty bus and took our seats up front, close to a woman she apparently knew. Lyneth without hesitation, proudly introduced me to this person. The moment the woman turned and looked at me, her eyes popped wide open, and a terrified look swept across her face. Her countenance became like that of a person faced with a very gruesome picture. Then, her eyes quickly closed, her body became limp and lifeless, as she fell sideways in her seat. It was as if the hand of death had mysteriously reached out from some silent abode and seized her." Many more powerful spiritual encounters would follow as her life evolves into a new dimension, with Christ as her Savior. The other side of this new life, ironically includes an ill-fated marriage to someone that proves to be deceptive, and has his own hidden agenda. From this union a promised child is born: a true gem, rising out of the midst of chaos. This child would be molested by her own father. She then boldly speaks out about this to her mother and then to the authorities. "Daddy did something and told me not to tell." Like a champion, this seven year old stands her ground and continues to tell her compelling story. This child would later come to brilliantly define truth as: Truth Is Something That Happened In this book the writer not only addresses her triumphs, when she walks according to the directive of the Holy Spirit, but the failures she experiences when she tries to lean on her own understanding, and not prayerfully seek the Lord for answers. It is evident that as a new believer, she definitely does not seek the Lord when she flies to Jamaica, her native country, marries someone who is suppose to be Spirit-filled and talking in tongues. After his arrival in the U.S. the real person is unveiled. So many catastrophes be avoided, if we learn to listen and wait for that still, small, voice deep within us. This book promises a great reading experience, that will be forever etched on the walls of your memory.
