Can anyone relate to this? My only concern is why should I be feeling like a kid when Im pretty certain I was not even born again as a kid. EDIT: Also as a kid I felt really convicted that goodness existed, like there was something besides this world im pretty sure Edited January 8, 2021 by F_Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds to me like you had it right when you were a kid. Maybe "being born again" for you means recapturing what you had as a child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
