In the 90's I was in my "APT" smoking some reef (serious.) I was bored and picked up a Bible an Aunt gave me, started reading ACTS, I was SO dumb I did not know the Apostles did much after Jesus went back to Heaven. I could not put it down! I read all weekend! Before going back to work for my Uncle that weekend I tossed my stash. Carried my Bible to work and kept reading there. The Holy Spirit did a NUMBER on my heart. When I went home I knelt down and prayed. I knew something was different. I did not have a name for it then, but now I know, Regeneration! (sorry for those who have heard my boring "Damascus Road" experience.) but that is pretty much how it happened for me. Grace and Peace.
