[featured-image single_newwindow=”false”][guestpost]Brittney is my niece. She was raised by my sister-in-law and her husband. From her infancy to years into her girlhood, Brittney called one man daddy only to discover years later that he wasn’t her biological father. After a DNA test proved her parentage, the man who fathered her hasn’t had a lot of (if any) contact with her. This is her testimony how her heavenly Father proved that He both loved and wanted her to be His child. [/guestpost]

After work on July 18th, 2017,  I had to bring milk to Camp Beno for Girl’s church camp and pick my meme up. We both wanted to stay for that night’s service, so we sat around talking waiting for church to start.

Well, we got ready for church and sat down so the girls could get ready for the choir and skits. Both skits were amazing. When all that was over with, it was time for Mrs Tera to start preaching.

She preached an amazing sermon. She talked about how no one was a mistake. Everybody was worthy. Well, it kinda touched me because I had been down lately thinking…

“My dad don’t want me. ”

“Was I a mistake to him?”

“Does he wanna know who I’ve become?”

I was crying already when she started her sermon. When it came time to pray, I broke down to God because I knew there was nobody else who could give me the answers to my questions. As I was laying there asking God to give me answers and praying for forgiveness for whatever I have done to make Him not want me, I was feeling as if I was alone.

But then, I felt as if someone was hugging me. I looked up and I didn’t see no one. But I still felt as if someone was sitting right beside me, hugging me. I didn’t feel alone anymore.

God didn’t speak with words to me that night.

He spoke with a hug to let me know I’m not facing this alone; I don’t have to worry about a thing; just to put my pain and sadness in His hands and let him take care of everything.

A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation. ~ Psalm 68:5

Oh,how this touch’s my heart and my eyes flow with tears of happiness for you to have that amazing gift from the Lord. To experience his love and touch without seeing him. To know that you are truly loved and a child of God. Love you, Brittany
