Dear Friend, thank you for your comment. "I'm a polyglot and to me her speaking in tongues just sounds like babbling with repetitive Hah-hah-hah-hah."
quote end.
My comment:
Yes, I understand you (I think). This is not "normal" and being a polyglot, you have another access to this, but to me she is speaking wonderfull. To be exact I will tell you how I get it.
When you get baptised with the Holy Spirit you do not know "what happens". You are giving yourself up and after this you are not the same as before. Mostly when this happens all kinds of "behaviour" happens.
Some "babble" (it sounds like that, but in the spirit you understand; like your feelings understand and you are moved), others begin to dance very heavily (I will not give you an example, not to "offend" you) while others are moved, so moved in the heart that all what is there are undergoing a complete cleansing and that person (all those persons) start to cry and you cannot stop.
This is what mostly happens in the beginning. As I understand life we all undergo "transformations" during our lives. Some good and some bad. Bad in the sense that we makes mistakes (some of the mistakes we could very well call sins) and many times we do things we afterwards regret (some we regret very much). I am sure you know this saying; oh, I wish I did not do this or say this; but you cannot "take it back".
Then we have to carry it in our hearts and after many years it becomes sometimes burden and times almost not to live with. Then we can develop traumas and a sad mind or sometimes become aggressive.
Now, when you have a person encounter with Jesus the miracle happens. The Holy Spirit comes like this recorded experience:
"When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden. So they hid from the LORD God among the trees". quote Genesis 3:8
So, I understand your point and I also can understand you; but I will say this to you:
My hope for you is to, once in your heart to meet the Holy Spirit to hold you and to comfort you to love you. Then you will become reborn (born again) and you will not know yourself afterwards.
I will say too; I also want to hold you and comfort you as one person to the other person, but with human limitations.
So, dear friend; come and sing "the new song" that will never end.
I will give this to you (from my heart to yours): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dZMBrGGmeE&spfreload=10
Bless the Holy Spirit from my heart, Jesus my saviour.
