Fresh Rose from the Father’s Garden
Later in the evening, I heard the sweet whispers of Holy Spirit inviting me to swim in the sea after the rain. The sun was setting down and filling everything with its golden light making the atmosphere filled with expectation that something beautiful is about to happen. As I slowly went to the beach to bask in the golden sea reflecting the sunset, I could feel the love of God wrapping me in His loving arms. This feeling was so sweet, like a thick cloud surrounding me with His presence.
As I arrived to the beach, there was almost no one, it was quiet and peaceful and I couldn’t wait to get in the water and swim in gold. As I jumped in the water and started swimming, I could feel the presence of God overshadowing me. I started thanking Him and praising Him for all His goodness and love from all of my heart and could feel the change in atmosphere, something was happening.
As I was swimming, God showed me visions as if I was swimming in heaven, I could see gardens, waterfalls and colorful mountains. It was literally heaven on earth. After this blissful swim, I sat on the beach and breathed in the freshness in the air after the rain. As I opened my eyes, I saw a beautiful rose in the water, it was coming towards me.
I was stunned and amazed, then I heard God’s voice saying : ”It’s for you, take it.” My heart was overflowing with love, as I approached to get the rose it was still a little bit far and I said: “ Lord, if this rose is for me, bring it to me.” And all of a sudden, out of nowhere a gentle wave appeared and brought the rose to my feet. Then I heard : “Pick it up”. As I picked it up, it’s fragrance filled the air all around me, this scent was as if this rose was just picked up from a heavenly garden.
I believe that God sent this beautiful gift to show us that anything is possible for Him, He loves bringing flowers to us from heaven, showering us with heavenly rain and blessings. Heaven is at hand. Turn your minds and hearts to heavenly things, God is longing to share with you His mysteries and bless you with heavenly encounters. He loves you with an everlasting love, swim in His love. Bask in His presence and you will be transformed, changed forever.
