My experience is a little different.
"And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for me with all your heart." (Jer. 29:13, NAS) I had gone forward at a Billy Graham crusade in 1958, I had done the famous "ABC" of accepting Christ, but I still could see my life was not like the Christians who I really respected and admired. Our youth group advisor helped me realize that it was just intellectual acceptance and I needed to really completely accept the person of Jesus Christ. The verse at the start here is the way I found Christ in August 1962 at a Christian camp. During morning private devotions I finally gave up and surrendered. At first the day seemed the same, but as the day went on I could tell something had changed. The first thing was during the first morning Bible study the Bible was a whole new book to me. Something real had changed. I have had other experiences to make my faith sound. Jesus is real, and faith in Him can give you a fuller, more meaningful life.
