Hey, mom how were you lead to Christ

Hey, it be DJ.
I was in the car driving home with my mom and i was telling her about the Brian Welch "I am second" video and then I asked her,
"Hey mom, how were you lead to Christ?"
"Kinda the same way you were. High school was really hard for me and i didn't know what to do at the time. I went on a church retreat to a Christian summer camp and had a blast! We were kinda doing the same things you do at Sky Ranch. We would go swim and go play games. Then after all of that we would sing worship songs and read our Bibles and talk about what we read. We were singing a song and the most awe-inspiring feeling, the most peaceful sensation just came over me and i started crying and i just felt happy, (at this point of the car ride, she started studdering and tearing up). I just knew that i had to accept Christ in to my heart."
When we got home i ran up stairs, closed the door to my room and started BALLING tears of thankfulness. I then prayed,
"God, I am truly blessed. You have given me such good Christian parents that actually know of your power and un-ending love for us. I can't thank you enough God for everything you do in my life. For the people in my life, the superiors in my life, it's all apart of your plan for and Lord it's better than any plan i could come up for myself. I still pray for the things in this world. But, no matter how many times i ask for something, at the perfect time, you show me that Your Scripture, Your Word, Your Love, Your Peace, is better than anything the world could offer me."
I was choking and tearing up the entire time i was typing this. Everyone continue to seek Christ, and just a little extra: Some time today or tomorrow or whenever you read this, ask someone "What do you know that Christ has done in your life recently?"
