Transylvania 2 : The Matrix

Will you take the blue pill or the red pill?

Until just a second ago I would have said it started in the Ukraine but that is soooooo far from the truth. It didn�ft really start, it always was, just knowing that there was something more than this, something, beyond the veil. At training camp I got my first taste of the �gcharismatic�h church, the strange thing about it was most of the people involved wouldn�ft label themselves �gcharismatics�h and even stranger was almost none of it was new, I had just never done any of it in public or talked to anyone who had any grasp on any of it. That experience really opened me up to the knowledge that these things (speaking in tongues, prophesy, visions, dancing/ singing in the spirit, prayer languages etc.) were real, it also awakened the fear that I may be going nuts.

Walking around Ukraine I would sometimes notice the separateness, we obviously didn�ft belong there, we were called there on a mission, and an imagined slow motion stroll to the bus later, the parallel was solidified in my mind. �gIt�fs totally like the Matrix�h I told Lili, who immediately understood my reference and agreed. As the month wore on the feeling grew, there were obvious moments where the seams of life seemed visible. A perfect series of circumstances, a coincidental meeting, the pattern of a rain storm, dreams, visions, and prophetic prayers and all along I was becoming more and more afraid of being nuts.
