I have also recently had visions of the Risen Lord when I pray before the tiny crucifix I got in the mail and the porcelain statue of the living Jesus I ordered from a mint. I see His face as well as His body where of course I do not try to look at the face of God.
I understand from Christian radio and elsewhere that Jesus calls you by name if He recognizes you as a true follower and I recently had this experience but wasn’t sure. I was always afraid that maybe I am not called.
It has been much easier for me to go to God the Father than to God the son. But I am beginning to understand His godhead vs his manhead (cloud of unknowing).
It is hard for me because of a strong Jewish tradition in my family on my mother’s side. I understand that it is very hard for a Jew to convert, although I do not know for sure that my mother is Jewish I believe it because she surrounded herself with Jewish friends when I was growing up.
So I especially need strengthening in my faith regarding approaching Jesus in prayer. I used to be a scoffer a long time ago and it is hard to break through but I am beginning
