I told Shane

how I finally believed

that God is real

right before we went into the cellar.

I know it's stupid

to wait 

to go into the cellar

but it was as if 

any and all common sense

flew out the window.

I didn't care 

that the wind 

was whipping against me wildly

or that the rain 

was pounding on my back

like pellets ripping my skin.

I was immune,

and it was as though

I knew something major was about to happen.

I couldn't miss it,

whatever 'it' was.

"Let's go inside!"

he shouted in my ear,

but for some reason, 

I held him back.

"I want to pray first!"

It was like I coudn't control my own thoughts.

I had to stay outside.

All that I went through to get here

didn't matter.

I wanted to go into the cellar

a new person...

I wanted to go in 

as a believer

and daughter

of Christ.

So I told Shane.

He probably thought

I was stupid

for wanting that,

but 

all the same

he told me to repeat after him.

So I did.

"Dear Jesus Christ,"

He started, 

and I repeated.

"Please forgive me

of my sins.

I know that I am a sinner,

and that I would not be able

to enter Your kingdom 

by my own works.

I accept

that You have died on the cross

for my sins,

and that You

and You alone 

saved me.

Jesus, 

I know that You are Lord.

Please come into my heart,

and my life,

and help me grow in You,

and to have a relationship 

with You.

In Jesus Christ heavenly name,

Amen."

"Let's go inside now,

yeah?"

Shane said

with a grin on his face.

I nodded in reply.

And then,

I smiled.
