Since my sister's death, I realize I don't have many photographs of events in my life. It has made me rather troubled. When I want to remember events in my life, I am left with an intangible memory of the mind. Some of the most treasured moments in my life happened during a church service or during a prayer meeting. I often wanted to video tape those moments or take a picture with my camera. However, the moments felt too holy. The atmosphere was too intimate to pause for a picture.
Now that Facebook is the main medium for my friendships, I feel misrepresented. My prayer life is hidden from this social network. My world is misrepresented because the world of the soul and the spirit isn't being captured or displayed.
I assume God protects these moments for His purpose. He jealously guards these moments. The friendships that were nurtured in the prayer room are beautifully protected.
