The storm of the spirit!

Testimony received by post

I got a friend to read three of your comic books. He read them in one evening. Then he started to read the Bible, passages that I hadn’t yet read… and he asked me questions – which I did not know how to answer… so I also gave him a book about the major principles and doctrines of the Bible… and he has already read it…

During a walk near the ‘three crosses’ on a hill close to Nolay in Burgundy (France), which was erected with the express purpose of reminding people of the work of Jesus on the cross, he took me by the hand and wanted me to climb up towards the middle cross just as the storm was arriving and it was beginning to rain… He was determined, and he scared me, he looked so grave, serious… I was prepared for anything… and there… sitting at the foot of that cross, he started to cry and was converted…

I did not know what to say, what to do, I was paralysed with joy, happiness, love … I wanted everything to be fine, my words to be the ones that God gave me ... I prayed within myself, I prayed out loud, I stammered a bit…

We held each other up and, during the prayer, the wind was blowing strongly, the rain fell, the storm was there with flashes of lightning (I am afraid of the storm) and hail began to fall … We were in T-shirts, we didn’t move, we continued…

When we finished, everything grew calm, the storm moved on, the wind (of the Spirit?) strengthened us, a peace flooded into me…

I don’t know all the feelings that he may have experienced, but the basics were there, were done… He began a new life, The Life…
