On yesterday. I watched as my wife gave her testimony to a group of believers; a strong group of Christians. I was amazed at her poise and how well she spoke as she recounted the facts of her life, and the story of just how much God has done to turn things around for her. Now since we have been together for 31 years alot of her testimony included me in every possible way, especially the bad and negative things we use to do before God stepped into our lives. The group listened intensely, some crying. But the tears were tears of joy, because they knew just how good God has been to us and also just how good He has been to them in their own lives. After the testimonial, members were coming up to talk to each of us about what they heard or just to know more. Alcohol, drugs and wrong living is affecting some of their family members and they wanted to know what to do. My wife had told them in her talk that there was no 12-step program, just one step, Jesus!
You see, your testimony isn't about you. As a Christian, you should be able to proudly stand up and tell the truth about who you were and who you are now as a new creature in Christ. The testimony you give will have an impact on someone else and you just may be the instrument God is using for that person's turn-around.
“Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.” Mark 5:19b(NIV)
