As a believer, I believe in Jesus because I can feel him.
For example, if there is a blind man, and he asks me how the wind looks like, I couldn't tell him how the wind looks like, even though I can see perfectly with my own two eyes. To answer the blind man's question, I would take him to where there is a breeze and have him feel the wind on him. Then he would feel it and know that it exists.
It’s kind of like that, even though you can't see the wind, you can still feel it. Jesus is the same, He exists in my heart and I feel him. When you accept Jesus as your personal savior, you begin to feel his presence, until you feel him; it would be hard to believe. You must have faith in the Lord and he will show himself to you.
-amen
UPDATE-
Ok I see that I got some replies on this. Regarding the blind man. Yes, that's you. You who don’t believe in Jesus. You are the blind. Because you want to see to believe. But Jesus is not a thing, he is everything. So the only way you are going to understand is if you feel him. If you feel him in your heart. If I had to describe that feeling for you, it would have to be like, there is a whole new person in me, and it’s not physiological, because he is not in my head, but instead in my heart.
It’s kind of like when you are in love, when you love someone and they hurt you, no matter how much you tell it in your head to forget about that person, you can’t, because they still are in your heart. Same thing with God, he lives in your heart, so if you are blind by thinking that Jesus is something logical, it won’t makes sense to you because he is not logical, its spiritual. You have to feel it with your heart.
Brain = thinking
Heart = feeling
There is a difference between what you think and what you feel.
When you have Jesus in your heart, you feel at peace. You feel secure in knowing that he is there to guide you and protect you from evil. Its makes you stronger and you feel like you can do anything. You don’t feel afraid, instead you feel confident and you feel this urge to help others.
It’s possible that you are wondering what do I gain from sharing the knowledge of Jesus with you. Why do people always want me to know Jesus?
Sharing Jesus with others it’s something that you get in yourself being when you accept Jesus as your savior. You feel good inside and you want others to feel the same way. You feel unselfish and sharing. You want everyone to know that they can feel good and look at life as a blessing instead of a curse. Instead of being pessimistic, you can be optimistic about life. To me, I see life in a different way. When I see the sun shine on all of us, when I heard the birds sing every morning near my window in my room. When I see all the creatures of the earth and how beautiful they are. This is an amazing world and I feel joy when I know that Jesus is with me. And I want everyone to feel that joy. I don’t want brainwash anyone; I just want to share a feeling, not an idea.

yea...see one thing that's wrong with that little analogy up there is..
the wind is a proven, existing, naturally occurring action caused by the movement of objects and such.
the difference that destroys that analogy is basically: you can place 'said' blind man too a windy place and say 'feel that, blindy?"
because wind..actually exists to be proven.

i'm not really a religious person. but this morning i was reading the newspaper and came across this page by some pastor about "living a spiritual life." i thought it would be really stupid because i honestly didn't understand why people would devote themselves to some jesus that might or might not have even existed. i thought believing in god and jesus was like believing that magic and wizards exist. but as i continued to read the article, it made me understand what people mean when they say that jesus died for our sins. he accepts our blame if something bad happens and he accepts our thanks when something good happens.
from what i read jesus is in everybody. he's like a second conscience, and the difference between a spiritual person and a non-spiritual person is that one opens up to jesus (the second conscience) and the other only depends on their own conscience. having faith in jesus means believing in and trusting in that second conscience to help your own conscience guide you into making the right decisions. that's why if you just have faith in jesus to guide you, then you have support always and are never alone in whatever you decide to do or whatever happens.
jesus is in everybody which means he is always apart of you. just believing that this holy, divine, jesus guy is inside of you, guiding you if you just let him, is enough to boost anyone's confidence. it's enough to make anyone feel special if you totally believe it.
having faith in jesus means having faith in yourself. jesus is in you to take the blame for your mistakes. hence he died for our sins. he's just someone you can depend on. and ofcourse none of this is literal. well atleast i don't personally believe that there is this man named jesus sitting in my brain and helping me make my decisions. i also don't believe there is some type of ghost always beside me, because that's just creepy. to me, it is an idea. jesus is there to help us, he is someone everyone can rely on when we are confused about what to do or when we feel lonely.
well, that's what i think. again, i'm no religious person so i could totally be wrong, but yeah. the article i read was in the la times, and it was by this guy named pastor ong soo park or something like that.

just remember, that Jesus is not YOU, Jesus is the Son of God, and when your flesh dies, your soul remains, (the second you) but you still have to answer to Jesus in Judgement day and YOU dont have the power to do that. God has given that power to our Savior Jesus Christ.

there is no world documentation, no forensic evidence, not one line written by any writers of that time and many were jewish writers about a man named jesus who was born of a virgin, performed miracles and was crucified.
the only information is from the 4 gospels and they contradict themselves about most what they write about, were written decades after the supposed crucifixtion and who says there copied writings are not made up. (lol)
back in the day jesus (jesuah) was a common name. the name christ was used by many people who had influence of that time.
jesus the jew made a blind me see, raised lazerous from the dead, fed the poor, turned water into wine at wedding of cana, fed 5000 people loaves and fishes. we were all taught this right? wouldn't common sense tell you that the jewish people would have embraced a jewish man like this? they didn't! they screamed for his crucifiction!......does make sense? no! and you would agree. up until the 8th century any christian artwork or paintings indicated a lamb on the cross not a person (jesus) well that was changed along the way. no where in the bible does it say mary went to heaven body and soul. no where in the bible does it say that mary & joseph went to an inn and it was full so she had the baby in a stable. every christmas eve thousands of catholics go to evening mass with their children teaching this fable. all made up stories like the whole story of jesus. unbelieable today that people still follow these old fabled family traditions that have carried on for centuries.
i can't see the electricity in the wires in the wall, but i know for a fact the electricity is there. i don't have to see something to believe it.

thanks for the help (not )none of this is fact its opinion how does that help people?
Clay:
one thing that is undeniable and is backed up by historical writings of the time in addition to the bible. that a man named jesus was crucified and there were reports that he rose to life again. it is also undeniable that his friends all suffered horrifiying deaths for their accounts that they saw all this happen. this must be considered by all reasonable people.

Many people believe in Jesus because they have felt and seen what he can do and how he can change lives for the better. No one is forced to believe in Him, it is a choice. "Blessed is the man who believes without seeing." We may not be able to see him now, but we will when he returns. So, I think that taking a chance in believing in him NOW will result in a reward far beyond anything this world has to offer. So weigh out the decisions. It will be the most important decisian any one will ever make. Believe, or turn away from God's free gift of salvation.

Milton:
Jesus is what you percieve him to be. The Bible says He is the son of God. He is God. So if you believe he is God he will do what God does for his children. He will bless you. But if you don't believe in Him, He will still wait for you and give you lots of opprotunities to come back to him. For His love is never ending and He is a forgiving God. If in life you have tried all sorts of things to make you happy and still find no peace within, then try Jesus this time. Surrender to him willfully and with your whole heart, mind and strength and then you will see the wonders he does for you. May God be your guiding light always - Amen.
