I said w/great surprise & delight, " Oh my gosh!!! Your hand is on fire, like the tongues of fire only it's on your hand!!!"
He looks at it & putting the little girl down, he too is equally surprised and happy, almost weeping,and says, " Oh my gosh!!!! This is for you!!!!"
We got down on our knees again, he put his arm over my back and we started to pray.
He acted as if he didn't know who it was for and had probably asked God that whoever it was for, only that person would be able to see it.
I see Brad Pitt as representation of "humanitarian" here. Mr. Green
I see this as stirring up the gifts.
The bench - Justice
The pantry/cabinet - storage, memory, rememberance.
(your putting something in the cabinet - storage)
the man left, then came back. Someone being "restored."
He came back with a little girl...reconciled father w/ child?
2 Timothy 1
Thanksgiving
3 I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers. 4 Recalling your tears, I long to see you, so that I may be filled with joy. 5 I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
Appeal for Loyalty to Paul and the Gospel
6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.
Commentary helps by Mathew Henry....
Here is an exhortation and excitation of Timothy to his duty (2 Tim. 1:6): I put thee in remembrance. The best men need remembrancers; what we know we should be reminded of. 2 Pet. 3:1; I write this, to stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance.
I. He exhorts him to stir up the gift of God that was in him. Stir it up as fire under the embers. It is meant of all the gifts and graces the God had given him, to qualify him for the work of an evangelist, the gifts of the Holy Ghost, the extraordinary gifts that were conferred by the imposition of the apostle’s hands. These he must stir up; he must exercise them and so increase them: use gifts and have gifts. To him that hath shall be given, Matt. 25:29. He must take all opportunities to use these gifts, and so stir them up, for that is the best way of increasing them. Whether the gift of God in Timothy was ordinary or extraordinary (though I incline to the latter), he must stir it up, otherwise it would decay. Further, you see that this gift was in him by the putting on of the apostle’s hands, which I take to be distinct from his ordination, for that was performed by the hands of the presbytery, 1 Tim. 4:14. It is probable that Timothy had the Holy Ghost, in his extraordinary gifts and graces, conferred on him by the laying on of the apostle’s hands.
Hebrews 1 ~
7 In speaking of the angels he says,
“He makes his angels spirits,
and his servants flames of fire.”
8 But about the Son he says,
“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;
a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing you with the oil of joy.”
