He revealed Himself to me in miraculous ways. He let me know that Jesus is real, and led me through my salvation experience step by step. He taught me many things that first night He saved me, and also during the next few days. It was only as time progressed, and I studied The Bible for myself that I came to understand and realize that the many things He led me through and showed me are important truths written about in The Bible.
There isn't any way that I cannot know that it was The LORD who saved me, partly because I know that I did not know, nor could have known the truths that He showed and taught me about in those first few days. The Bible is packed with information that most people, even Christians, unless they have really studied it thoroughly, are not aware of. Even the things that did not make sense to me have since come to make perfect sense to me as I studied The Bible and found and learned about them.
If you will seek Him with all of your heart He is faithful and will reveal Himself to you, as well as lead you into the truth about The Bible, and your need for a saving relationship with Him, which can come only through His Son Jesus Christ. You can come to Him without understanding that the things in The Bible are true, if you are sincere about wanting to know truth and want to follow it with all of your heart. He will show you everything that you need to know. He will meet you as you are, and where you are at.
The thing that most people are not aware of is that they are thirsting for love. Even more than knowledge, which is good and necessary, it is real and lasting love your heart is longing for. Do you want to know love? If you do, you will find it in Jesus Christ, the one who died for you on the cross, and it will last forever.
I was a young man; far from home.
A flatlander from central Indiana; now in the Air Force in Denver.
After watching a late night movie about the miracles at Lourdes at a local girl's house; I was walking back to the base, mulling over what I'd seen.
"Bunk!", thought I. That kinda stuff don't happen - except in movies.
It was a cold night - fall or maybe early winter. The stars were ablaze in that crisp latenight air.
As I looked up, the thought of evolution came to mind and how it explained how the Big Bang created all of what I was seeing. How the MASSIVE! outburst of energy spewed out all of this matter.
Yeah; that's how it happen, thought I!
Einstein - E=mc2 THAT was the ticket!
I was fine, then, walking along. Secure in my knowledge.
Then, in an almost audible voice, these words formed in my mind...
"Where did the ENERGY come from?"
