I would just like to hear stories when you encountered Christ and what happened? Was it kind of crazy to think, 'wow you've been hear the whole time and I haven't acknowledged you' and then if you begin to kind of brush him off, it seems he has a way of letting you know again, 'noooo I'm still here and I know what you did while you were ignoring my presence' lol. Anyways, I would just like to hear things that you have experienced when you thought, perhaps God is trying to tell me something.

I believed in God for many years, but lived in sin. In my entire life, and except for a few passages, I never really read the Bible; then, out of the blue, the Holy Ghost moved on me to pick up the Bible. As I started to read, the fear of God and judgement came down on me. Shortly afterward, I had a radical born again experience -- and I have not been the same since. Glory be to God!

I was raised from an early age by a fanatical mom. Though I had a turbulent childhood - rebellion, drug use, etc - His voice pursued me through thick and thin. By the age of 21, I could resist no more.

Like scgraham said, glory be to God!
