Has the Lord ever talked to you? Words that showed me the road ahead

Tweet

A little over 2 years ago I had a very spiritual and moving experience. The details of that experience I can't really talk about but I feel compelled to talk about what happened right after that experience. Only moments after I was walking down a road and I was suddenly attacked by a horse fly. I am sure everyone knows what a pain one can be. It came in at me again and again biting me and swarming me with a vengeance. I finally got mad and managed to knock it to the ground and stomp it. I thought to myself "what was that all about" and I heard that deep small voice saying "if you can't handle a simple horse fly biting you how will you be able to handle what's ahead". It wasn't as if the heavens opened up or a light shined down it was just a simple voice but as real as I am sitting here typing it happened. I doubt that I was suffering the beginning of schizophrenia. What makes it more compelling is that it was right. Things that I would have never dreamed of happened over the next couple years and unfortunately there was times I got about as worked up as the day I smashed the horse fly. I tried to keep in mind that experience and I still do today when something happens that upsets me. I try to keep in mind its just that horse fly biting me. I can't say I have always taken it like I should but I know I am different than what I was. You may think that I am crazy or you may have had a similar experience if so please share.
