Looking for Jesus

I haven't had many religious experiences, but this is one that happened to me around August 2003 while I took my two small boys primitive camping to Caballo Lake State Park near Elephant Butte/Truth or Consequences.

We camped out in a small tent on the primitive side of the lake. No lights, no water, etc. So once the sun went down it was pretty creepy. The kids fell just about right to sleep. But I was up for hours and hours just thinking and staring into the darkness. Around 2:00, I was looking out the tent flap at some desert toads that had hopped up from the lake to eat the bugs attracted to my small lantern. I distinctly heard a gruff man's voice say: "I am looking for Jesus of Nazarene." That was all, nothing more, nothing less. I do not know who said it, or why they were there in the desert, looking for Jesus. Please email me if you have had a similar experience.
