Divine Encounters & Walking Away from What Was No Longer Mine
Hey there, beautiful souls! π
I know it’s been a while since I last posted, life has been busy, but I’ve been feeling the urge to share two very personal and powerful encounters that God has had with me. They’ve both been life-changing moments, and I believe God is still working and intervening in my life every day. This is going to be a longer post but I truly believe it’s worth it.
The Mighty Encounter in My Car (June 2024)
It all started about a month before I walked away from my ex—sometime in May or June 2024. One day, I was driving, just another ordinary day where I was playing my worship music and having a quiet conversation with God. For me, my car often feels like my personal sanctuary—a place where I can connect with God in peace.
I had been praying about worries that had been weighing on me for weeks. I didn’t have answers, but I trusted that God would lead me through it. And, He did—in a way I couldn’t have imagined.
As I was driving, something shifted. I can’t explain it, but something unseen seemed to settle in the passenger seat next to me. It wasn’t a physical presence, but I could feel it. And then, my whole body broke out in goosebumps. I felt an overwhelming sense of peace and emotion, and before I knew it, tears started to fall.
In that moment, it felt as if I was having a conversation—not out loud, but in my thoughts. This presence showed me things about my life—things I had been avoiding or didn’t fully understand. It even highlighted areas where I was off course, like a relationship that had been pulling me away from God.
As quickly as it came, it left. The feeling disappeared, but the message stayed with me. Though I wasn’t sure what to make of it at first, I began to see the signs more clearly in the days that followed. God had just given me a powerful nudge—a reminder to realign myself with His plan for me.
The Day I Walked Away From What Was No Longer Mine (June 2, 2024)
There are moments when God leads us to make decisions that are hard, but necessary. I had been in a relationship for five years, a relationship filled with ups and downs. There were many things that happened that I chose to overlook, or maybe I just wasn’t ready to face the truth. I ignored my family’s warnings that I deserved better.
On June 2, 2024, I went to visit my ex, who was sick. I brought him medication and was planning to spend some time with him. But that day, something felt different. I didn’t feel at home, even though I had spent so much time there before. After making sure he took the medication, I went to lay down for a nap. But instead of joining me, he stayed in the living room, seemingly indifferent to the fact that I was there caring for him.
That’s when something shifted in me. As I lay in his bed, I was suddenly overwhelmed by goosebumps. It felt as if something took over my body, and in that moment, I felt like I was outside of myself, watching it all unfold. Without thinking, I packed all my things and walked out the door.
I didn’t say goodbye. I didn’t explain. I just left.
As soon as I was in my car, I gained full awareness again. The gravity of what had just happened hit me, and I began to sob. I had just walked away from something that no longer served me.
That relationship wasn’t just something I was walking away from—it was a whole chapter of my life that God was calling me to close. God had guided me to let go, to move forward, and to trust that He had something better for me.
God's Intervention
Both of these encounters were moments of divine intervention. God spoke to me in ways that I never expected but that I desperately needed. Whether it was through a conversation in my car or through an undeniable feeling that guided me to walk away, He’s been working behind the scenes to protect me, lead me, and show me His love.
Sometimes, it’s hard to see the bigger picture. But when I look back, I see how God was always there, guiding me, even when I couldn’t hear Him clearly.
If you’re in a season of uncertainty, know that God is still working, even in the quiet moments. Trust His timing, and when He speaks, listen. You may not always understand, but He has your best interests at heart.
Sending you love and blessings,
Jana
