I love depending on Christ’s strength

It’s amazing when people realize that God has entered their heart. It is like that moment when their eyes have been closed and everything is dark—you can’t feel anything, you can’t see anything, you can’t hear anything, you can’t even experience anything but fear.

But then your eyes open, and you’re surrounded by the light. You’re surrounded by the love. You begin to experience the little and simple things again: how it feels to stand on solid ground, how it feels to breathe clean air, the fragrance of flowers, even the softness of a hug.
