Topic: Vision (08/03/06)
One day God gave Danielle a vision, she seen thousands of people gathered before her as she raised her hands to the Lord they fell down and worshiped him. Little did Danielle know, what she had known as just a vision would play out in the years to come.

First God prepared Danielle by teaching her the importance of people believing in his son Jesus Christ, he showed her a vision of Jesus as a bridge that filled in the gap between the world and God, and how without walking across that bridge there was no way of us meeting our Heavenly Father.

Second God taught her the importance of the Blood of Jesus, he taught her this when she was reading about the Passover. Danielle had heard about this event but never took the time to soak in what Passover really was. One day when she was in her kitchen she felt a dark cloud hoover over her head. It was so dark that she fell to her knees and as quickly as the cloud appeared it disappeared. This is when she decided to thoroughly researched what the Passover truly was. Through her research she learned that the Israelites would cover their door frames with the blood of a lamb so that when the spirit of God passed over their house it would pass without causing destruction or death. So from that day forth she made it a point daily to cover her whole house and each member of her family with the blood of Jesus for protection from death and destruction.

Last but not least God taught Danielle how important prayer is by showing Danielle a vision of her sister in despair, that night Danielle called out to God and placed her sister in his hands. Danielle prayed that he would take care of her because she no longer had the strength to carry her, Danielle found out that night by lifting up a prayer for her sister and placing her in his hands he was able to save her from death. That night her sister’s boyfriend had tried to stab her, she escaped without injury. Danielle learned two things from this incident, prayers that aren’t prayed will never be answered as well as if you place someone in Gods hands, you can guarantee that he will protect them.

Danielle has learned to trust the visions God gives to her and today Danielle waits patiently until God brings forth the vision he has set forth for her life.

Consider telling this as a story--the 3rd paragraph has ample material! You have some compelling things to say.

The grammatical error in the first sentence, "seen" instead of "saw" seemed to give this nice story a bad start; However, some very important thoughts, words for the wise and a great devotional. Thanks for sharing this with us.

You had some wonderful thoughts.
I think this piece needs some polish - for example, many of your sentences could have been broken down into two or three in order to make it easier to read and more grammatically correct.
Overall intriguing plot. Thanks for sharing!
