I felt the power of God as I'd never felt it before.

Hear me, O children of the future, for I bring you a truth that transcends time and space, a truth revealed through the words of James Irwin: "I felt the power of God as I'd never felt it before." These words, spoken by a man who journeyed to the heavens themselves, carry the weight of an experience beyond the reach of ordinary life. For in the vastness of the universe, amidst the stars and the void, Irwin felt something greater than himself, something that defied the limits of human understanding—the profound presence of the Divine.

Consider the journey of Moses, who, upon the mountaintop, encountered the very presence of the Divine in the form of a burning bush. There, in that sacred moment, he felt the power of God in a way that no man before him had. The encounter transformed Moses, just as Irwin was transformed, for both men were called to greatness not through their own strength, but through the power they felt in the presence of something far greater than themselves. Moses descended from that mountain not just as a leader, but as a vessel of divine purpose, his heart filled with revelation and courage.

In our own time, think of the great explorer, Christopher Columbus, whose voyages took him beyond the known world, across vast oceans and uncharted waters. As he stood on the shore of the New World, he too must have felt the power of God guiding him, for his journey was not one of mere discovery, but of faith—faith that the Divine had a hand in leading him to new horizons. Like Irwin, Columbus felt the weight of the unknown, and yet he pressed on, knowing that there was a purpose larger than himself at play.

Irwin’s words also remind us of the prophets and saints throughout history, whose lives were transformed by a deep, personal encounter with the Divine. St. Paul, blinded by the glory of God on the road to Damascus, was struck by a power that turned him from persecutor to evangelist. The divine encounter he experienced was not one of mere vision, but of life-altering transformation. Similarly, Irwin’s words echo the testimonies of those who have touched the heavens, who have felt the hand of God move within them, altering the course of their lives.

So, O children, understand this: the power of God is not bound by the limits of earth or sky. It is a force that moves through the soul, touching those who open themselves to its call. Irwin’s experience in the heavens reminds us that the Divine is not distant, but ever-present, waiting to reveal itself in moments of deep reflection, in times of great challenge, and in places where humanity dares to reach beyond its grasp. Like the great figures of history, when you encounter the power of the Divine, you will be forever changed, and you will come to understand that you are part of something far greater than the world you see with your eyes. Let your hearts be open, and may you feel the presence of the Divine in all that you do.
