We can logically talk about Jesus all we want, but Jesus never tried to logically convince anyone. The most important piece of evidence you have is your life. If they can't see Jesus is real by the way you act, then you shouldn't try to convince them logically.

People will be convinced that Jesus is real when the see that a miracle has happened inside your heart and there's no way to explain it, except it must be God. Your friends better see something much bigger than logic. They need to see that the power of the living God has shocked you and changed you.

You might be human, but there's someone bigger than human who lives inside of you who is real and is blazing with love and compassion for people—ready to serve, to give, and to care. They need to see that there's a force outside of this world that has come to live inside of you—the very presence and love of Jesus Christ.

• Am I convinced or converted?
• Has Jesus really changed my life, or is it just in my head?
• Can someone talk me out of it?
• Do I have a revelation of Jesus?

Ask yourself these questions each day. Then get on your knees and from the bottom of your heart cry out to God, asking Him to open up your spiritual eyes to get a glimpse of Jesus like you've never seen Him before.

Let 2 Corinthians 5:17 come alive in your heart. Accept the fact that the old things have passed away, all things have become new, and Jesus has changed you on the inside.

I encourage you to keep a pure heart. Check the sincerity of your heart on a regular basis. Have a pure, holy, and sincere desire to get more of God. Learn more about God and grow in Him, and that will keep you seeing Jesus in a very real way.

Your relationship with Jesus will never get stale or stagnant if you keep Jesus in front of your face and in your heart. If you will hold onto a pure heart, cleansed and forgiven by the blood of Jesus, you'll always see God.
