Fr. Greg's visit to Steubenville

Wow! What a weekend!! It was so blessed. OMG. I don't know what I did to deserve to have Fr. Greg in my life, but I'm so glad he's in my life. This weekend was so good. I can't even describe it. Yesterday was so awesome. Fr. Greg did Mass, just for me, in his hotel room. IT WAS SO FREAKIN SWEET!! Then, he did a Holy Hour where he prayed over me. Whenever Fr. Greg prays over me, I can really feel God. He's prayed over me 3 times and he always does it in the same way. He puts his hands on my head and prays and then, after a few minutes, he takes my arm and puts his hands over the scars and prays for physical and emotional healing. Every time he's prayed over me, when he goes to take my arm, at first I want to pull away and hide the scars. Then, I remember that Fr. Greg doesn't care that I have scars (Last night, he told me he sees 100 things about me before he thinks of cutting when he thinks of me). So I let him have my arm and he prays with his hands on the scars. Yesterday, the most moving thing that he did was during the prayer, he knelt down and just hugged me. He knew I was kind of crying, and then when he did that I absolutely lost it. I haven't cried like that in a long time. Just like in DC, he just held me and let me cry. I've never had a man in my life let me cry like that. Fr. Greg knows that it's a good thing for me to cry because for a year and a half, I didn't cry. I held all my emotions in and then they'd get so overwhelming that I'd cut for a release. It felt so good to cry like that. I usually don't let people see me cry, but I'm not afraid to let Fr. Greg know what's going on. He's the person that I've let the farthest into my life. A lot of times, I let people in to a certain point and then keep them at an arms length away. Fr. Greg is in further than anyone else. When he hugged me, I've never felt so loved in my life. It's an indescribable feeling. I don't even know. I'll post more about our weekend later.
