Yoga, meditation, Eastern religions—Steve was deeply involved with them all. Although still a student himself, he was organizing and teaching classes in meditation and yoga to other college students. Still, there was something missing.
Finally he decided to leave school to give all his time to studying the Eastern writings, as well as going more and more into yoga and "deep meditation." A year later he still had to admit that something was missing. "I realized I still didn't know God personally," lie said. "I believed in Him deeply, but I didn't really know Him."
Just then he received a letter from a former classmate, saying, "Jesus is the only Way!" How different this was! Steve spent the whole day praying that, if that were true, God would show him.
When he went out that evening he stood by the roadside with his thumb out for a ride, still praying for God to show him if he should turn to Jesus. A van pulled over. Steve climbed in and was barely seated when the driver turned to him and said, "Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior?"
Steve didn't even hesitate. "No," he answered, "but I'm ready to!” Right then and there he asked the Lord Jesus to come into his heart.
Steve says now that "the experience has proved the reality —with Him living in my heart, I know He is the Way."
Back to his yoga classes he went and told all his students that, Mohammed didn't die for our sins; Buddha never got out of the grave, but Jesus is the living Savior who as crucified for us."
No longer is "something missing" in Steve's life. The Lord Jesus has filled that emptiness, and his time is spent in telling others of the One who said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." John 14:66Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6).
