My turn to give a testimony

Just wanna give thanks to God for something quite extraordinary that happened last week (7 Nov 10). Jan and I were preaching at the Maranatha youth group, and were sharing about being open to the Spirit and letting church not be "church as usual".

During the altar call, we were ministering to different people, and God was touching different individuals as usual. I was praying for the pastor's daughter, and during the prayer, I spoke in tongues as was prompted to by the Lord. What was unexpected was that the pastor's daughter understood the tongues I spoke!--what happened is that she had been in Europe for 3-6 months, travelling to different places, and she herself knew how to speak Dutch. So she came to ask me after the service whether I actually knew Dutch. I told her that I knew German, but not a word of Dutch. So she then told me that during the time I was speaking in tongues, I was actually speaking in a known language, i.e. Dutch! Something about "you are loved by the Lord" (and another phrase which I cannot remember, need to go and ask her again). I was indeed very shocked. I know about the interpretation of tongues, but this is the first time for me to experience the Spirit speaking in a known language. Hehehehe. Very shocked and in amazement. Truly, the Lord's works include "signs and wonders"--"wonders" meaning things that just leave you in amazement!
