Me and My Brother. |

Me and My Brother. (Just to let you guys know, he is younger than me. I have 3 younger brother and I am the 4th and oldest son of my parents. He is the second oldest, and his name is Jeff.) See, we aren't very close and never have been. In the mornings im cranky, and I know it sounds so messed up but sometimes my attitude towards him in the mornings in my mind is just like... "I hate him"... but I can not accept that. He is my brother. God placed me in the same family as him, there has to be a reason. I really want to be close with him. Even when we do talk or something he ends up doing something to annoy me afterwards and it just messes up what we had. It's really annoying and i feel dirty in my mind because of it. As I mentioned in my other blog, there was a youth Pentecost rally we had at my church on Pentecost Sunday. It was good. That night one of my main focuses was hearing/experiencing from God, specifically praying for him to speak through me with holy fire. As I waiting on the Lord, I felt like I should pray for my friends, and then an urge to pray for my brother... I ignored that trying to avoid an awkward moment with my brother. After praying for friends with problems, addictions, and just friends, I felt the urge again and I realized I can not ignore the Father of the Universe. I dedicated my life to him... my WHOLE life. He told me to pray for him, and I was going to. I looked around for the best path to walk to him trying not to distract anyone or call attention to myself. I walked over there a little timid and nervous. Instead of just being all "emo" I put my hands on him quickly and a little roughly. (Hope that doesn't sound weird, lol.) But then after he acknowledged me, and I put my head down to pray, I felt more comfortable and was ready to talk to the God most high concerning me and him. I prayed for him. That God would use him. That God wouldn't let him go. That God would never let him walk away. (He plays for worship for our youth group usually for his age group [middle school]) I asked God to use him through this ministry and to guide him to where God wants him. Then I prayed for a love. A love for my brother. I REAL LOVE for my brother. I asked him to restore our relationship. Quickly, or over time, but just let us be closer. And at this moment, for a short, unforgettable moment, I began to cry as I felt God's love pour through me and into my brother. In the name of Jesus all my hatred for my brother was gone. It was amazing. I love my brother like never before. We still argue a lot, but I don't argue in hate, just in annoyance. I know that over time we will argue less and less, and in the name of Jesus our relationship will be restored for good. I'm so happy and I praise the Lord for what he has done. Forever and always!
I encourage anyone in fights with thier siblings or who needs to forgive them or just needs a better relationship with their sibling would just go to the Lord God almight and ask. I hope this will encourage you guys in your relationships with them. Remember God is in control, ALWAYS!

WOW, what an incredible story! Oh how I wish my brother and I would have been close enough in age and spirit to have ever had a moment like you and your brother had. I commend you for taking action on the "urge" to go pray for him, that took a lot of spiritual guts on your part, but it was obviously worth it.
I pray the two of you can keep your bond tight and keep growing together as true brothers, not only in the flesh but in the spirit. Thank you so much for sharing this, it really blessed my heart.

I ditto the previous post. Your testimony needs to be heard by everyone. Do not be shy about sharing this with everyone. We need more young men like you in this world. I have had similar situations. The Holy Spirit can wipe away all hatred, fear, worry and replace with Peace that passes all understanding.
God Bless

Somehow I never got to reading this blog, and boy, now I am so glad I did! You are like a breath of fresh air, a rain in time of drought. I praise God for your love of Him, your obedience and your witness to a hurting generation, a witness of love and Truth. WE need more soldieers like you out there! Blessings! Andrea
Is it your birthday? Well, Happy Birthday!

Wow i really liked that. It makes me feel good seeing that other kids my age are feeling so close to the Lord and dedicating their lives to Him.
I hope that things with you and your brother continue to progress.
God Bless you,
