Do you know the feeling?

Disclaimer: This post is somewhat different from the typical post you read on this blog. I'm not sure what your take on God is, and how you feel about the supernatural, or whether you even believe God exists or not.

As followers of Christ we have the opportunity to experience God in a way that is hard to explain to others who do not know Him. When a person accepts Christ, the Holy Spirit takes residence inside their body and becomes their comforter. [yeah, sounds a little eerie, huh?] Occasionally, I experience what some people call "God moments," where something unexplainable happens inside me, something that moves my soul, and awakens a new awareness of God's mercy, love, grace, or greatness. I am then reminded what a great God I serve, and can only thank Him over and over again!

There's a song puts me in this "God zone," and reminds me how small I am compared to Him. In 2005, Matt Redman released a song titled Facedown. The lyrics go like this:

Welcomed in to the courts of the King
I've been ushered in to Your presence
Lord, I stand on Your merciful ground
Yet with every step tread with reverence

And I'll fall facedown
As Your glory shines around
Yes, I'll fall facedown
As Your glory shines around

Who is there in the heavens like You?
And upon the earth, who's Your equal?
You are far above, You're the highest of heights
We are bowing down to exalt You

So let Your glory shine around
Let Your glory shine around
King of glory, here be found
King of glory

If you don't know what this feels like to have this "intimate experience" with Christ, then I urge you, like the psalmist writes, to "taste and see that the LORD is good;" (Ps. 34:8)
