I spent many years fighting against Christians, convinced I knew the truth and they were ignorant. I read the Bible to find the flaws and to use them to berate anyone who dared talk to me about faith.
I got into a very painful situation in life, a desperate corner with no escape. I found myself praying for salvation from the pain. I had a Bible with me, due to other circumstances. It feel open to the page that says "be still, and know that I am God". I asked myself "what if?" and dared to believe, even if only a little. It felt as if a blanket was wrapped around me, and the fear vanished. Very quickly, the issues which had overwhelmed me were resolved.
I can find no explanation for what happened in my life except for the direct intervention of a higher power.

@ColonelFlytrap that was God speaking to you!
Jesus wants you to acknowledge Him as that “Higher Power”. Why not give credit, where credit is due, and to the right one? He said if we deny Him as our Savior, He will deny us, before His Father in heaven. @ColonelFlytrap
