I miss going to church
I totally understand the Holy Spirit living in me but there’s something about having people with shared beliefs in the same environment and sometimes worshipping online doesn’t give me the satisfaction I yearn for

I found a community last year, I found a family, sometimes I feel like that extended cousin that nobody knows because she’s decided to exist in isolation

Anybody who knows me well, knows how much I hate large gatherings(big churches)even if those type of gatherings would aid me existing in isolation, I dislike them.
Walked into @thetribelagos Vulnerable, sad, looking for answers, lol I had too many questions for God.

I would tell my friends God was doing me dirty, I used to feel like I was untouchable, then when things beyond my understanding started happening, I started wondering where God my guy was. I felt unloved by God, I became sad and gloomy. I needed something to make me happy
I needed to remind myself I was loved and enough,I almost had a tattoo and it was going to be I LOVE YOU GIFT, needed a constant reminder imprinted on me(still going to have one in the future though,on a maybe)substituted tattoo for my nose ringhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😁" title="Grinsendes Gesicht mit lächelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Grinsendes Gesicht mit lächelnden Augen">,I was happy but wasn’t satisfied
I woke up one morning entered my car and went to @thetribelagos how and why I picked tribe is a story for another day. I got into church and all I did was cry, was crying like a big baby from start to finish, somewhere in the middle of the services, prayers was still on ongoing
I felt someone holding me from the side, she was praying and prophesying a lot to me, like she knew all of my troubles, felt like God played my tape to her before I showed up.. my baby tears didn’t stop,started wailing like a child whose food was stolen https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit Freudentränen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Freudentränen">
After that day, whenever I talk about church with my friends those in or outside Lagos I always talk about tribe, I talk about how small and warm the community is...Back to why I started this thread I miss going to church. I’m still a work in progress
But not the girl who was beefing God because of her sense of entitlement, not the girl who only knew how to ask and run away but shows up later when there’s a problem.... Understanding everyday this a Father and child relationship...
