The Power in a Testimony

We have felt led of the Lord to begin this blog in effort to share some things that might possibly help our readers to not only understand more about Christ and what He has done for us, but to also share our personal testimonies in order that it might free someone else as well.

Let's face it, life hands us challenges. The cards that are dealt to many of us have not been what we would deem "fair." Some people have been through more than others, but every story is an important one. There is no life story that is NOT important. Even the child that was born with the silver spoon in their mouth has had hard times in one way or another, for we live in a fallen and uncaring world.

One of the most unfortunate lies that the devil loves to tell people is that their story doesn't matter and that no one would like to hear it. Hopefully through the midst of this blog, we will be able to minister to the hearts of those that have been bruised, broken, hurt, forsaken, in pain and sufferings. Not only do we aspire to let people know that they are not the only ones that have gone through some things, we also desire to let people know that there is deliverance from the pain that you are enduring or have endured in the past. There is hope in the midst of all hopeless situations! No one is ever alone in their experience.

There was a man in the Bible that the disciples inquired to the Lord Jesus about. This man was born blind from his birth. the question that his followers asked Him, was why was he born blind? Was be blind because of his own sins, or the sins of his parents. Jesus answered them by saying, "Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him," (John 9:1-3). The same is true for us and our life stories...bad things don't happen to us because we have done anything wrong to deserve it or because God is angry and punishing us. God doesn't inflict pain on people like that, but the devil does. What makes our God so awesome though, is that He takes those situations where the devil intends to destroy us and uses it to help others along the way. This is what makes our God so much greater than other gods, Allah doesn't give people hope, Buddah doesn't reach out and speak to people when they are in need of encouragement, but Jesus Christ has, does and always will!

As we share our personal stories with you, we hope that they will minister to you. If you read something that blesses your heart, feel free to share our cause on Facebook with them, we would like them to become members. If they don't have a Facebook page, please encourage them to get one, but we can always give them the address of this blog to share with them as well. We just want to share with others, and it matters not what platform is used, but just that the hopeless are given hope along the way.

We pray that the Lord bless you in everything that you say and do...
