40 Acts #37 - Testify

Tweet

[/i]Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will tell you what he did for me. (Psalm 66:16 NLT)[i] Our testimonies are often the best advertisements for Jesus. You don't have to have a perfect life. You don't have to have all your ducks in a row. But being able to articulate how God changed your life is generous because it offers someone else hope. It says to them, 'If he can do it for me, he'll do it for you too.' Three Options: Is this tough for you? Maybe you've not ever shared your faith with others. In which case, start small – it could be a simple social media comment or like that hints at your belief. Don't believe in all this Jesus stuff? Take time out today to think about your 40acts experience – in what ways has it changed you and your story? If your testimony feels too personal to share, or you haven't got much time, simply share online today what you've learned from your 40acts journey so far. You might like to post it alongside a photo that encapsulates what 40acts has meant to you as a way of introducing your faith to others. Share your testimony with someone or a group of people today. How you choose to do it is up to you – whether that's on- or off-line. Remember: it doesn't need to be miraculous, sensationalist or world-changing. It changed you, and that simple message is powerful enough.
