All I know is that when I left, everything had changed. I’ll never forget standing outside that apartment on the Upper East Side and saying to myself, “It’s true. It’s completely true.” The world looked entirely different, like a veil had been lifted off it. I had not an iota of doubt. I was filled with indescribable joy.

Yep! That's how it happens. The veil is lifted off - the Holy Spirit opens eyes and hearts to the truth of the gospel of the grace of God through Jesus Christ. He knows those who are His and they hear His voice and follow Him and He gives to them eternal life, they shall NEVER perish and He will never cast them out or lose even one.
