I am now seventy-one years old and have been a
Christian most of my life. I still remember my first
experience with the Lord as a boy of eleven years
old. It must have been a revival meeting my folks
and I were attending because we were going
several nights in a row.
I recall sitting in church and feeling very tired and
falling asleep. Suddenly I was awakened and the
preacher was giving an invitation to come to the
altar and give your heart to the Lord. I instantly
felt a strong pull like a nail drawn to a magnet to
go down and respond to that call. I had never
experienced this feeling before. I asked my dad if I
could go out and when I went outside I broke down
and cried. I decided right then if I felt that again, I
was going down to the altar. The next day I forgot
all about what had happened the night before. I
felt no different, but that night we went back. The
same thing happened. All I felt was sleepy and
couldn't keep my eyes open, however when the
preacher gave the altar call I was wide awake.
That same drawing was pulling on my heart.
This time I went down and I knew afterwards I was different and there had been a change in
me. The next day I was still thoroughly excited about this new encounter with Jesus and I
went right away and ask a friend to go to church with me. I wanted my friend to have what I
had.
This hunger for the Lord's presence has continued to follow me through these years. I have
had many encounters with the Lord since that day and His calling still beckons me to come
closer. I've made mistakes, probably slowed down God's first plan for me, but that anointing I
feel, I'm still drawn to. I am not satisfied by any means, I still want more of Him. The one
thing I declare is, He's faithful in all his promises and I want to know Him and the power of His
resurrection.
