1 Peter 3:15 advises: “Always be ready to make your defense to anyone of the hope that is in you.”
Every believer has a witness to offer; which says to me that your life and my life--that every life--is an important story to tell.
We all have a story, but the way the bible tells it,
your life begins when it gets tangled up in God’s story; when you have something to say about how the Holy Spirit moved; how the grace of Jesus flowed; how the hound of heaven sniffed you out and tracked you down; how you were wrapped in death’s strong bands until the resurrection rolled away the stone and the river of mercy washed over you like living water.
Telling your story is one way to praise God because God has blessed you and that's part of the story. Tell it.
God has made a way for you. Tell it.
God has brought you out and got you over
and helped you along the way. Tell it.
This is my story, this is my song, praising my savior all the day long… Tell it.
~~Mark
