HOW MICHAEL GOT SAVED...

A guy was knocking at my girls door, and he was a Iron Maiden fan and talked about Jesus. My girl (Now my wife) started to talk with him for hours and he prayed for her too, and she really met God at that time. But she wanted to talk me into it too, but I refused, I just didntīlike christians and their god. Two years later I met two guys who was christians, we played together in a band. We started to talk about God and stuff and and at that time I wanted more out of life than i had. God had my attention when we one night played together with Leviticus in my hometown. After the show we left the place and suddenly something happened while we was driving the car. A joy that I never felt before started to explode inside of me, all my trouble, thoughts, and burden was just washed away. Inside of me one name was pounding it was Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. Believe it or not but the car was not touching the ground it was some inches above the road. I became a beliver of Jesus, cause he showed himself as GOD to me and he forgave all my sins. I didīnt know nothing about God exept that he loved me.
P.S. He loves you too!!!
