Remembering Kathy

I am going to write this to you because I don’t think that I could
trust it
with
another soul.
I was on break today and that feeling of depression just sucked me
right in.
That’s the best way I can describe it.
It lurks around the corner all the time. It seems to cycle from Anger,
to
sadness, to gratitude that I have people around me who can help.
But, today, when that depression was taking a grip (I had been fighting
off
that
darkness with words for several days)
It came on strong that I am a child of Jesus. That
I am his.
Then I felt awashed
in his blood. Covered in his blood, and it
WAS HIS
blood. I could feel the
drying stickiness of it even.
A voice (him) told me that I was his and that the dark COULD NOT have me. That I
would live and that he was in me. And again that the darkness
could
never have
me, that I was forever his and would forever be alive on some plane
with him.
I was dumbfounded of course with this meaning.
And then I closed my eyes and he gave me a piece of bread (like in the
church)
and he asked me if I would eat his flesh and I told him yes.
He then gave me a drink of the wine/blood and asked me if I would drink
of it.
Of course again the answer was yes.
Then the thought has stayed with me that I belong (yes belong) to him
and that
he is in me.
I still feel his blood all over me and I feel like it is his/our
suffering that
I am feeling.
I did not have any awesome feeling of joy. Only
this intense
feeling that I
belong to him, period, and that I always will.
Even now my sadness brings the feeling of his blood and his sadness and
belonging to him.
This is way over my head but I know that it is true.
I will pray to him tonight for his will to be done in my life.
But again their were no warm fuzzies,
only a knowing of the above things.
Still, I feel these things. I don’t know what they mean or how they
will effect
my life but I know that they are true.
I know that I don’t deserve his love, because I can not return it to
him in the
way that I should.
I have told him this in my prayers of late. I tell him that I am sorry
that I
can not grab hold of his way or his will for me .
That I do not have the energy.
I am so tired all of the time. I could sleep for hours.
But more will be revealed. I know that I do not deserve him but here I
am
covered in the blood of Christ.
I keep repeating it because it is so real. I have been so blessed with
him
showing himself to me in my life but I am not giving back right now. If
I am it
is in very little ways.
I know that I am not nuts and that I am experiencing this.
I just dont know what he wants me to do
with it.
My guess is he just wants me to know that he is with me in this pain.
And he told me that he came to give me life (like it says in the bible)
and
life
in abundance.

Please, if something bad should happen to me share that letter with my
mother
and husband and husband's family. The last time that I experienced
something
that strongly, I was kidnapped at gunpoint and nearly died; I am not
saying
that
I think I will die but, if I do, share that to give them peace. This is
not
suicidal ideation (I want to live as long as he would have me). I just
don't
know what to expect when I feel something that strongly (and still do).
Thanks,
Kathy
