Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hello Beloveds, I feel led to share the three times I audibly heard the voice of the Lord. It may be meaningful to some of you, because I may have heard it for all of us. I don't know... The first time was when I had come to the end of myself and had nowhere to turn except to God. I remember speaking to God, though I had had no previous experience of anything spiritual. I said, " God, if you're really there, I put my life in your hands. I can't do it anymore. " It was an experience of being completely broken and lost. I was flooded with an intense peace, and it felt like Love wrapped its arms around me. Then I heard, " I've always had you. " And flashes of the past filled my mind of things that no one else knew about, but where I triumphed over some challenge. And I sensed that He knew all of them and wanted me to know that He knew, and that He has been there all along. The second time I heard the voice of the Lord was after a prayer vigil when I had finished the hour I had committed to. Before I left the connection I heard " Live in the Now. " Those words were filled with the total revelation of what that meant, and blew me away. I'm still trying to live it out, but it was so deep that its been a continuing growing experience. The third time was during an intense transformational period where I first entered the unmapped territory that separated me from the rest of the " flock. " I was on a spiritual retreat at the time and the Retreat Leader gave us the verse, " Perfect Love casts our fear " for our meditation. When I was deep into the silence I heard, " I love you. " It literally shattered what was left of me. Who would think that such beautiful words would shatter someone? But the holiness and Light that filled them was more than I could humanly bear. I find that when I hear words like these from Him that they are alive and live in me creating changes continually. Not like our words that go in one ear and out the other. I often hear from the Holy Spirit as well, who guides and teaches in a much gentler voice. But these three experiences were rocks that my life is built on. Nothing can move them. If I had nothing else to go by, these are Three Lights that I've been blessed with. And so I share them with you. Love, dhyana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Dhyana, All I can say is Wow!!! It was as if I were reading my own story. I know and understand one thousand percent what you are talking about. The first time I had a one on one with God , was the most emotional and powerful experience I have ever encountered. To this day I have never experienced such PEACE and feeling of total LOVE. What you described is exactly what I experienced , and it shook me up for days. I tried to get back to that connection the following weeks, but was never successful. But as I continued to pray and pray and pray, eventually I began to feel more and more connected. And finally, I got there again, and I heard " What took you so long " lol NO KIDDING... God has a great sense of humor.. I have found. Or at least with me he does. He often uses humor to get his point across. I did a 4 week bible study that was titled, how to hear the voice of God. It was not what I expected, nor did it help me one bit. Meaning, this is not something that can be taught out of a text book. This is something that you need to seek an feel. What I have found, is God is looking at our hearts, PERIOD! He knows everything you have ever done, and anything you will ever do, so there are no surprises to him. And when you make the connection with him, one on one, it is Absolute BLISS.... It is a state of being that you never want to leave. And it comforts you to know that he is real, and he is in control, I am a control freak to some degree, and it is very difficult for me to trust and let go, but when I do,OMG... Why I have such a hard time doing this is beyond me. Your post shook me to my core, because I don't discuss these types of things with many people, for fear of judgment, and many other reasons. I just don't. But it was so wonderful to hear a similar experience. That is what I love about this board, is that we all have our own unique experiences. ALL Real, and all different. I love the fact that we all embrace our similarities, versus our differences. It is just such a wonderful place to be!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Thank you so much, Sharon. Its a little scary sticking my neck out like that, lol! Anyway, if the experiences we have are authentic and not just something we read somewhere, then they are all Treasures and should be shared. The wording may be different due to the different Paths, but all valid and valuable.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Woow that was such a good sharing...thanks so much... I remember my worst time...it was sometime before Dec-2006. I was so very much broken up...and I was so upset and fed up with everything in life...I just went to the extent that I got pissed off with god and I said to goddess...what the hell is happening in my life...enuff of it all...I can't hold it on...and I cannot hold on to the hope that you would come to me and save me....after this I broke down....i just saw the picture of goddess when I felt she said.. " Haven't I been taking care of you....why are u doubting ...why is it u are losing your trust?? " ....i was so shocked to this...it was in a form of thoughts in my mind that was flowing... I kept on remembering these words for long time and I felt so much good at heart....... It was then My guru entered into my life....and I have been blessed with so much of happiness and enlightenment..... " Thanks to goddess....i trust you...and you have been with me all the time...even if I have forgotten you!!! " With Warm Regards, Nagendra Prasad K.R .. <http://geo./serv?s=97359714/grpId=15107123/grpspId=1705076479/ msgId=36343/stime=1214752774/nc1=4990219/nc2=5170420/nc3=5170412> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Hi Mikael, I use Lord because those are the words of the place in the Path that I am on. They are words of devotion and love, as well as surrender and commitment. Lord is Love, and there are times where there is no separation. Those times do not come from the mind and knowledge, but from the experience.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Ah! Dhyana, thanks for sharings. I too have been audibly spoken to. My heart swells up and tears of joy come to my eyes everytime think upon those moments. Blessed asurrance..... I have never told anyone, not even christian friends, for I did not think anyone would believe it possible. One of those times all the Lord said was the words, " I love you " ... most beautiful words to hear. Love, Linda , " novalees " <dhyana wrote: > > Hello Beloveds, > > I feel led to share the three times I audibly heard the voice of the > Lord.
