A miracle moment in my life

I want to share one of the most precious moments of my life with you—an experience that defined my relationship with God.

In 2011, I was visiting friends in Australia. They invited me to their church, and after the service, a man I had never met approached me and said, “God wants to say to you: and then he spoke these words in Dutch, ‘Ik houd van jou heel, heel veel’”. (which means “I love you very, very much”)

I was shocked! This man delivered a message from God in my native language! I asked if he knew Dutch or had any Dutch relatives, but he didn’t. He simply shared the words God had given him in a language he didn’t understand. 😳

I was beyond stunned. Of all the things God could have said to me in that moment, He chose to tell me how much He loved me. His priority was to communicate His love to me.

A similar situation occurs at Jesus’ baptism, marking the beginning of His public ministry:

“As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went out of the water. At that moment, heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him, I am well pleased.” – (Matthew 3:16-17)

Of all the things Father God could have said, His first words were neither directional (“go here”) nor instructional (“do this”). They were relational: “This is my Son, whom I love.”

God wants to tell you today: “I am your Father, you are my son/daughter, and I love you very, very much! I desire to have a relationship with you”!

Hey! You are a Chamatkar.
