🌿 61 — When I Stopped Climbing and Fell Into His Hands
🪶 The quiet miracle that changed everything
In 1971, something happened to me.
Not loud.
Not dramatic.
Not public.
Quiet.
I had discovered something in scripture that overwhelmed me.
Not emotionally.
Not intellectually.
Just deeply.
I knelt down to pray.
And I did something I didn’t fully understand at the time.
I stopped climbing.
🧗 Most of Us Try to Climb Toward God
We try to:
be worthy enough
understand enough
prove enough
clean ourselves up enough
feel something strong enough
We try to reach Him.
Even in prayer, we strain upward.
We talk.
We explain.
We promise.
We perform.
We climb.
I didn’t know that’s what I had been doing before.
But that night… I didn’t climb.
🤲 I Fell
I didn’t argue.
I didn’t analyze.
I didn’t structure anything.
I just surrendered.
Not one thing.
Everything.
Fear.
Control.
The need to be right.
The need to understand.
The need to hold on to myself.
I stopped resisting.
And instead of climbing toward heaven…
I felt like I fell into His hands.
🌙 It Was Quiet
There was no thunder.
No voice from the sky.
Just nearness.
Heaven didn’t feel far away anymore.
There was a light.
There was love.
There was peace.
But now, decades later, I understand something better:
The miracle wasn’t the light.
The miracle was the surrender.
🕊️ Light Follows Surrender
You can manufacture emotion.
You can stir up intensity.
You can work yourself into spiritual effort.
But you cannot fake surrender.
Surrender is quiet.
It is unseen.
It is unannounced.
And when it is real, something changes.
Not because you climbed high enough.
But because you stopped resisting being held.
🌾 The Veil Isn’t Far Away
People talk about the veil like it’s a barrier.
But what if it feels thick because we are still climbing?
Still striving.
Still controlling.
Still protecting ourselves.
When I stopped climbing in 1971…
The veil didn’t tear open.
It just didn’t feel far away anymore.
Heaven was close.
🌿 What This Means for You
You don’t need a mystical experience.
You don’t need perfect understanding.
You don’t need to solve every doctrine.
You don’t need to reach upward hard enough.
You need to surrender.
Sit quietly.
Slow your breathing.
Stop performing.
Stop defending.
Stop climbing.
And say, honestly:
“I am Yours.”
Then fall.
🤍 The Quiet Miracle
Sometimes nothing dramatic will happen.
Sometimes peace will settle slowly.
Sometimes tears will come without sadness.
Sometimes you will simply feel held.
Not because you earned it.
But because you stopped resisting it.
I look back at 1971 and I don’t feel important.
I feel grateful.
Praise be to the Lord.
The miracle wasn’t that I saw light.
The miracle was that I finally let go.
And when I let go…
He was already there.
