Day 3

December 3/06

Got up this morning and checked my email and got some amazing emails from some of my friends. The love is so amazing and I feel so very blessed to have the honor of being in each of their lives. Took my morning meds and off to church I go. OH the love that is in that family. God I am so blessed that you lead me to this place to find family. I have been to some amazing churches in my life. Been touched and felt the love of God in all of them. St Johns MCC was one the churches where I felt the most love and to be honest the most spiritual growth in God. After moving from NC I felt that I would not find that again. So I searched only to find that I was making that statement true. So I asked God once again while living on MacArthur Blvd in Oakland to show me HOME!!!! One Sunday one of my friends who I had this most amazing CRUSH on and most likely will the rest of my life. We got up and he said let’s go to church. I had asked him before about his church and told him that I would like to go one day with him. The church was so full it was the 10:00 AM service so we couldn’t sit together. The MUSIC was off the HOOK the mass choir sang a song called Taste and See. I cried the entire service with joy for I knew at that moment God was telling me YOU ARE HOME. I have been back almost every Sunday since. This Sunday I was greeting with love and support as always and some of the Choir has read my email and thanked me for my honesty and truth. I was bathed in love and family. I went to the second service as well where I had the honor of sitting with Bishop. One of the many friends I have in my circle called FAMIILY. He didn’t miss a beat and was not sad, which I had asked for. Asked me how my play day was and what did I buy? What a great man and friend I have in Bishop. After church was greeted by friends and then off to meet Shawn to have lunch and play again. We decided to meet later that day, so I went in to the city to visit my friend David and help him with a project he was working on. Later Shawn and I had dinner and a great visit. Off to bed for the Gym the next day.
