 We must individually receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Then we can know God personally and experience His love.
* We receive Jesus by faith. Receiving Him means experiencing a new birth! Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. . . . For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast. Jesus answered, 'I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again'.
JOHN 1:12; EPHESIANS 2:8.9; JOHN 3: 5-7 

 Pray to God regularly and ask to be led by the Holy Spirit. Read the Bible so you can become more intimately acquainted with God's ways. Surround yourself with good friends who know Jesus. Look for a friend whose life is producing the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Ask them to help disciple you in Godly growth. Tell someone about your decision to follow Jesus! It will strengthen your faith.  Do not rely on feelings—they can be deceptive. Put your faith in the fact of God's Word and in His promises for you. As you fill up with His Word, your feelings will come into alignment with your faith in what He says. God bless you! 

 We receive Jesus by personally inviting Him into our lives! Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me" (REVELATION 3:20). 

 We receive Jesus by faith as an act of our will. Ephesians 2:8 discusses the gift of salvation: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God..."
