One night I went to bed early because I had had it with life, totally. I had been a bit down all day, it had been busy at work and things had been disappointing. I was late at home after a nasty meeting and did not even feel like preparing some food. I was laying in bed in the dark, just on my own and felt lonely. I needed to be touched, and I said to God. "Yes, you can not comfort me in this, not at all. Oh certainly spiritually of course, if I ask You to but You can not touch me, You are not a human being, and right now I need a human touch. " I was laying still and mused about this all a little bit and suddenly the next amazing thought came to my mind, which I simultaneously uttered: "But my whole body is the touch by God!"
I got so
overwhelmed by this realization that I turned on the light and looked at my
hands and arms and with one hand I touched my other, stroked my arm and stroked
myself so to speak and felt that literally God touched me. I was filled with
great awe. My whole body was created by God and was cherished by God and
everything I did was one complete touch of me as a human being by God. I felt
so comforted and secured and suddenly so completely and calmly and together
with God that my whole despondent experience of loneliness was solved like snow
in the sun. I fell asleep comforted.

like to comment on this?
My son, is not this all Mine too? All these
words, this insight and to begin with the words: "the body of man is the
touch by God".
I saw your loneliness and knew that you were only
now open to this great realization. Everything is from God, life, the world,
man, his spirit and his body. But now especially you were allowed to experience
this literally physically, just purely physically. And I comforted you with
this realization, and you experienced that evening with your whole being that
man is not alone, never alone, and that his body is the living and cherished
and wonderful gift of God to man. And that man with his body is literally
touched by God. And so comes very close the realization that the body is the temple of
God. That God stays there. In love and touch.You are blessed.
My blessings
to you all
