The Greatest Reunion

Introduction

My first recollection of memory was at an incredibly young age, as I clearly remember growing up on West Riddle Drive, in Ravenna, Ohio. I will never forget before the age of 2, when I was about 17 months old, my dad taking me to downtown Ravenna, to see a real Firetruck at the Fire Station on Main Street. I distinctly remember holding my dad’s hand and walking down the sidewalk to that Fire Station, and being so excited to see in person, a real Firetruck! As we approached the Fire Station, it was a Saturday and the Firemen could be seen out front and in the station garage bay, preparing to wash and service these humongous vehicles in bright red, with flashing lights! When we arrived in the center of the open garage bay, facing the street, there was this huge fire truck that was backed neatly in its bay ... and to me, just it’s presence as it was parked, with fireman walking around it ... was so special, as I remember letting go of my Dad’s hand, and walking right up to the front of that parked Firetruck’s grill ... and as I looked up in total awe, the grill of that huge Mack Truck, which was all chromed and shined so bright, looked as though it was like 2 or 3 stories tall, above me at this young age, and suddenly a fear came over me, that I was not expecting ... as now this massive Truck looked like an overbearing monster from another world, as it was so huge and now towering over me, and was now suddenly scarring me, being that close to it, as a small little boy! I remember turning and running back to my dad, and holding back my fear and tears, the best I could ... I clearly remember my dad calming me down and telling me; Georgie: “Do not be afraid!” and as my dad calmed me ... a few Firemen walked over to join my dad and to assure me, “That everything will be alright!” Then this one brave firefighter offered to my dad and me, to come closer inside the fire station ... and then asked my dad if he would like to hold me and climb up into the cab of the fire truck, to witness and see a real Firetruck? I went along with my dad for that experience, as I finally felt calm and assured that this Giant Red Monster was now safe to sit in and stand in front of ... with my father’s presence, and to hold my hand ... I will never forget that experience, at that immature age, and how truly small and powerless I felt during that day of transformation, only to recognize many years later, this was just an introduction of a Supernatural event that would follow, in such an amazing parallel, in 1977 and 2010!

Looking back at this memory, I laugh because after the age of two, in 1960 ... I was falling in Love with Airplanes, Racecars, and those magnificent Astronauts in their Spacecraft, and one day when I was playing with my sister in our back yard on our swing set, I distinctly remember looking up at the sky ... and seeing airliners and military aircraft that were very high up in the sky, and seeing those long white contrails that followed behind them ... and although I was very young, I felt pulled to an attraction with aircraft, and also a sensational feeling, that I could not properly describe ... and that powerful sensation, that while looking up at the sky, was accompanied by a feeling of being pulled closer to a much more powerful and indescribable desire, that felt more like a greater magnification from above! What was that sensation? Was it the Love of seeing an airplane ... or was there something greater above the sky, that had a control over me, that was too compelling to describe at such a youthful age? So, at the youthful age of 2.5 to 4 years old, whenever I was outside running around in my back or front yard, and looking up to see if any airplanes, airliners, or military aircraft were crossing the sky overhead ... I felt a presence that was very compelling, as if it were calling my attention and focus to it, as it truly felt like a magnified attracting force, that wanted my attention, as whatever this was, was a force multiplier much higher above the clouds and the sky, that is not visible to the human eye! I just assumed that this was my curiosity and affection for aircraft flying by ... and at this tender young age, I didn’t think too deeply beyond this, until I grew older, and at the ages of 6 through 7 years of age, I clearly felt, and still do to this day ... a special powerful feeling from above, that is still attracting me and drawing my attention, and whenever I stop what I’m doing, and look up ... I feel that same powerful warmth from above, as though it is calling me! Now, being a young boy, I could never seem to put a finger on what exactly this was, or what was the meaning of this attraction, until some 45 years later ... when I would never be the same human being, ever again! It is when we finally look back and recognize all the compelling evidence of a Divine Creator, and His continual magnification of His Love for you and me.
You see, we are not aware of a Supernatural 6th sense until one day, when we are so very fortunate to have an actual Supernatural encounter and Divine experience. This experience would become an evident reality, for me at the age of 19.5 years of age, in August of 1977, and it would take me another 33 years to finally see and be called, by a Supernatural and Superior Higher Authority ... so Divine and Loving, that my eyes and heart together, could finally see the Truth, and the Life, and the Way!
