You may ask, as many others have done, How may I know that “Jesus receives me and loves me? Shall I know by my feelings?” No; by obedience to His Holy Word. Appropriate to yourself the rich promises of God. Believe His word that Jesus is abiding in your heart by faith. Through faith and trust in God you may have His peace, and you can then say, “I know in whom I have believed. I will listen to every whisper of His Holy Spirit.” (TMK 41.4) MC VC
