I didn't investigate the experience. I've just kept on the same path since then and continue to ask God to guide me. That was about a year and a half ago.

Sure. If that experience was the only thing I based my beliefs on, it would be pretty flimsy. Nobody should base their beliefs entirely on a single mystical experience.
