Testimony

It was great over the last two Sunday's hearing people give testimony at Sunday worship of how God has held them and helped them face some of the trauma of life. God is faithful, not always pulling us out of those horrible circumstances, but he always gives us the faith, strength and tools to face up to them in grace.

It's good hearing people tell about it.

Psalm 78:4 We will not hide them from their children, but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might, and the wonders that he has done.

I'd encourage you in whatever ministry you are involved in: get people to tell their stories of what Jesus is doing with them and through them. Whether it's home group, KidsChurch or a elders meeting. Create opportunities for people to speak about what God is doing through the powerful work of the Holy Spirit.

It encourages the downcast, energizes the lethargic and reminds us all that we serve a God who is mighty to save!
