I - of myself - don't have the power to convince anyone of anything, I merely testify of the things I know to be true - this based on my real experiences that are corroborated by the Holy Bible. The Lord JESUS says "Freely you have received, freely give." - Matthew 10:8; so by His grace, I do.
I could testify of supernatural experiences that I would not have survived (because of the clear danger then posed and my complete defenselessness thereto) - but for GOD's merciful, supernatural intervention! He made it clear to me in a number of ways (including through His living word - the Bible), and I - by His grace - thanked and continue to unreservedly thank, and praise, and glorify Him.
Apart from all this, and logically speaking - do your own research and see the particular order and great complexity in creation - from our galaxy in relation to the more than two trillion that we know of - to our solar system - to living creatures on this planet; ourselves (intricacies of the functions and mechanics of the body) included. When one truly looks introspectively and is fairly objective, one must admit that these things do not just happen and continue on by accident. They are really impressive!
One wouldn't necessarily be so quick to deny a reported work of say, Pablo Picasso, just because one didn't know him or didn't actually see him paint it, would one?

I'm glad you're able to be with us and you've over come the trials and tribulations of fate.
So... it's wonderful that you've had many experiances.
How do you demonstrate that there is anything supernatural that's not simply something within your mind?
In my life, so far, I've not seen anything to indicate that any supernatural things exist. There is (Are?) no evidence of;
Naraguns (Native Australan nature spirit. Think giant hermit crab made of rock that lives inside boulders and wakes up p!ssed during thunderstorms. Hence why people go missing during really bad weather)
Tuatha De Danna (Irish/Celtic fae. Think Tolkien elves. Like the Noldor. Really big super magical critters with major attitude.)
Keep adding other myths and folk lore to the list. I see nothing but fables that people used to make sense of a terrifying and uncaring reality.
So. Again, it's nice that you have faith.
I don't have such. How do you get/demonstrate your faith to match reality?
Cheers.
Not at work.
