I do believe in the secret and mysterious working of God in the human
breast. I must believe it after finding the forgiving and converting
grace of God in the Savior, Jesus Christ. My father and mother held high
human standards, but completely without any thought of God. My parents
appeared to be without any spark of desire after God; attitudes that
were cold, earthy, profane. Can you tell me why, then, at the age of 17,
as a boy surrounded by unbelief-l00 percent-I could find my way to my
mother's attic, kneel on my knees, and give my heart and life in
committal to Jesus Christ? I cannot tell you why.

I can only say that I know there is such a thing as the secret workings
of God within the human being who has a sensitivity to hear the call of
God.

In my own case, I do have the testimony that my conversion to Jesus
Christ was as real as any man's conversion has ever been! My fellow man,
if the Spirit of God is still tugging at your heart, thank God-and
follow the light!
