Young Christian Reveals
Experience at Youth Camp
A young person of tee* age has'
written o ( his experience at a re
cent camp service. He does not
reveal his name, but says in his
letter the following:
Tuefday
July 29, 1958
I have seen Rod. All my life I
have heard of prople having
visions of Him or of hearing His
voice. But I never dreamed it
would happen to me while I was
but a teen-ager. But He didn't
came as I often imagined He
would. He didn't descend from
heaven dressed in gold. with a
thorus of angels, all proclaiming
His glory, with fire, and thunder,
?nd lightning. He came quietly?
softly.
It was at a Christian youth'
camp. It was the last night and
everyone was gathered on the
beach in front ?< a mighty oak
tree, for ? short devotion. Every
thing was quiet and still except
for the gentle lapping of the water
*n4 the occasional cry of a bird.
It was a good feeling to sit there
so still, with fellow campers sitting
around you in quM meditation.
You could Just somehow feel the
presence of God. I could feel that
He was near? very near.
I glanced up into the branches
of the oak tree standing before us,
with the river behind it and the
stars above it. And that is yhere
I saw him. One of the branches
was glowing, a dull sort of glow,
as thpugh the mows was sfcining
behind U, and as I gazed upon it
a phjll ran through my body and
something inside of me said, "It's
Hi m; It's the Lord."
I glanced away and then looked
a second time and still He was
there. And I knew it was Him.
And then he vanished and was
gone. I could see him no more.
But I knew he was still there and
would always be near.
And inside I felt thrilled, peace
ful and gloriously happy, for He
had allowed Die to gaze upon His
tioly face.
This is a true experience of mine
and I just wanted to share it with
others, praying that it might prove
a blessing to someone else.
