Let me start this night off with a prayer. Lord Jesus, I'm asking that as I'm giving my testimony that you give the right words to say. Lord, lift us up for Your blessings today. I pray that you will anoint us with strength and self-care today, tomorrow, and always. I pray that You will grace us with patience and wisdom. I pray that You will encourage us throughout the day to take the correct steps to walk proudly and behave well. Lord Jesus, we come together to praise you with one voice, Weaving our lives together in unity and diversity as a representation of your body. We are all different but we have the same maker; We have unique stories but the same author Who writes again and again on our hearts his miracle testimonies Of transformed lives, answered prayers and changed perspectives Each of us has countless stories to tell of his goodness. And today we choose to bring them together for his precious names’ sake. And as a testimony to ourselves, each other, and the world of his kingdom’s rule. Thank you for this day. I praise you for who You made me be, where You have placed me, and the people You have surrounded me with. ... Let me be someone who brings the fragrant aroma of Christ to those who do not yet know you. In Jesus' name, I pray amen.
Before I received Jesus Christ. I felt alone there was a piece of me that I felt like something was missing, I felt depressed, anxious, and felt rejected by several people. I'm suffering from PTSD. I felt empty. I felt like I didn't have a purpose. I felt like I was a disappointment. I had several insecurities. I still suffer from some of these things. I felt like I wasn't enough.
I grew up from the age of 1 to 6 years old without any holidays. I grew up with no mom in my life; she was in and out of my life my whole life. I learned how to cook really young because my dad was at work trying to get money so he could pay bills. We went to church but I didn't understand what they were talking about and my dad told me I should get baptized and I did but my home life was bad. I grew up in a small community in Conway, Arkansas the trailer park we lived in was 100 Brookside Dr. I grew up my whole life being bullied when I got into the 5th grade I started acting up I had to go to Conway school for an alternative school. I saw my bio mom in the middle of 5th and 6th grade and then she left not even 15 minutes after seeing me and my brothers. When I went to school the next day I went to the 2 story building and was about to jump out the window but someone stopped me. Then I went home that night and tried to hang myself. My life was tough with my bio mom in and out of our lives. I went into a facility for 6 months without talking to my parents for 4 months. It was tough but I tried to stay strong. I came back home and started going to church. I came closer to god when I was 12 and then as I got older my depression got worse but I tried to keep it together but I just came out to God and My family and people I trust I told them about something I'm suffering from PTSD for and no one believed me so I let it all out and started to feel bad and thought that it was my fault because I was sexually abused and to this day I have asked God to help me through this situation. I have tried to end my life 4 times since Christmas of this year. But, one thing I love about this is that I haven't given up.
Someone shared with me how to have eternal life with Jesus christ
No matter what our story is we know ourselves that Jesus Christ loves us all dearly even after we sin. His love is reckless. Never give up. Jesus Christ Loves you all too.^_^
Now that I have eternal life with Jesus Christ I am not disappointed, I love myself for who I am and how Jesus made me, I am not so depressed, I have a father to run to, I love others and tell them about Christ.
I have not yet given up. I have been hiding my emotions but I talked to someone about how I felt and now I'm helping others that have been through the same thing.
Better yet, the full life that Jesus offers lasts forever. If I were to die right now, I know for certain that I'd be in heaven with God.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world he gave his one and only son that whoever believes in shall not perish but have eternal life.
Psalms 119:105 Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Matthew 6:33-34 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Look I’m not here to say my testimony this testimony is made by the holy spirit/ Jesus Christ. I came to know Jesus from hearing a couple of verses and they hit me hard because I was going through something. We were asked every wednesday if we knew Jesus Christ. Taco always said there are 2 roads you can lead down one is to heaven with Jesus Christ and the second road is the road to hell.
Awesome God, as we leave this place, we put our trust in you because we know you will never shame us. We hope continually in you and praise you more and more. May we tell of your righteousness as we leave this place and even when we come back. Be our guide in everything that we do and lead us to the rock that is higher than us. Help us to abide in your word and let it guide us in all that we do. We shall continue to look up to you because we know that you are our shepherd, and we shall not lack anything. In Jesus’ name, we believe and we praise you, for in you are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. We thank you for giving us your supernatural wisdom to enlighten us throughout this meeting. Thank you for giving us an understanding of the materials we discussed. Thank you for guiding us in the areas where we need to take action. We ask that you continue to direct us as we follow through on decisions we made. May your wisdom continue to guide us as we go our separate ways. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen!
