So true. I can testify to that.
I was raised in a Christian home. My earliest memories were of a church-attending clan. I found myself at Summer camp in a morning chapel meeting. I knew that many of the other kids were not raised in a Christian home as was I. Having concern for their "lost" souls I was looking around during the invitation, even though we were instructed that every head be bowed and every eye closed. I longed to see which child would raise a hand and receive the Lord of Glory. At that moment my heavenly Father tapped on my shoulder to deliver an important message. "If you think it is so important, why haven't you done it?" I rose to my feet and went forward without hesitation, not waiting to be instructed to do so. (nor the least bit concerned that the creator of all things had just whispered in my ear) Seemed a "natural" occurrence to me.
Ironically, the man who led me to Christ was the son of the man who led my father to Christ.
Dear Steve: The moments that bring us to the Lord Jesus Christ are most precious. The awakening is custom made for every one. For me it was a deep hole that nothing could fill. The very first time I heard the glad news of the love of God for me, my little legs could not get to the altar fast enough. Not once in 62 years has He ever failed to be there in every detail of life.
I like Him very very much!
