I became a believer in God at my kitchen sink. I believe He had been leading me to that moment for many months, if not years. There was no one great tragedy, just a mounting stressful feeling that I was missing something, that I had no purpose or reason to be. I called out, “God if you really exist, show me”. And He did! He flooded my heart with such an awe filled peace, that I knew could come only from the Creator of the universe. After that experience, He created in me such a strong desire to know Him, that I couldn’t stop reading the Bible. One of the many Bibles that I had was a small Gideon’s Bible, it was just the New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs.
In the front of this little Bible was the heading ‘Where to find help, when’ . I started reading it daily and at times hourly. From the very first, His words began to encourage me. It seemed as if He was speaking directly to me! I have since come to know that He is speaking right to me, to us. The Bible is His love letter to us. He gave us His word so we can know Him and how much He loves us. Over the years I’ve added to the list of scriptures that I found in the front of that little Bible. My hope is that you too will find the Father that loves you and that you will find the “peace of Jehovah, which surpasses all understanding…“
