random stuffu

lying awake in my hospital room, silas creek parkway is my only view, and the doctor just came by and told me the news - i need a second opinion; i don't believe that it's true.

Two nights ago I woke up at some unknown dark hour of the night with this really weird feeling. For one I was completely melting. (Someone had fallen asleep in the "yeah, I'll turn this electric blanket off just before I fall asleep" phase.) I don't know if that was what woke me up. Probably. I kinda had a sore throat too. It's still kicking around. But the weirdest was I felt really scared. It sounds weird written down, but it felt like God wasn't there. Like, what hell is. Don't know why that kind of sudden fear kicked in, but when I got up in the morning I could still remember what it felt like. Really scary and horrible. It all reminded me that hell is real.

Hey,
I get that too sometimes. especially after doing some kind of dumb sinning type thing. I feel like all of a sudden i dont have the spirit anymore (similar i guess to what you were saying about God not being there). It feels really scary and you remember the experience months after.
Probably a good opportunity to drag out the end of Romans 8 (awesome) and remember that nothing in all creation can separate you from the love of God that is in Christ jesus.

Yeah. Go Romans 8.
Hmm, it wasn't so much feeling like I wasn't God's, but just that hell is real and it is something that will be experienced eternally by many. Like as though for a second I was tasting what that would feel like, even though I knew that's not where I'll live. If that makes sense.

Yeah, makes sense. It is sad that so many people will go there.
