The Purpose For Writing This Testimony
My purpose for writing this testimonial is so that it might be used as a help, and an encouragement to those who may be going through the same thing that I went through years ago. Even if this does not personally apply to you, it may apply to those you now have contact with, or might have contact with in the future. Perhaps someway, you can relate. Having said that, I will begin.
A Trying But Very Rewarding Prayer Journey
I have been in the prayer ministry over twenty years. It’s been a long but very rewarding journey for me. I remember always having a desire to know God, even before I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and my Savior. Before I came to the Lord, I went through a time of rebellion. I had seen, and also experienced things in the Christian community that had upset me and along with that I had some of my own issues that I was dealing with. All of this caused me to turn away from pursuing the things of God, and consequently, I strayed and went my own way.

My life became very complicated, and pressure began to mount up in my life. I finally came to the conclusion that the only way out was to turn to God, and so I did. In God’s mercy and love, He reached out to me and met me just where I was at. The Lord gave me a hunger and a thirst for Him that I cannot put into words. I acquired a Bible, and began to read and soak in His Word. I remember thinking, "If it’s not in the Bible I do not need it." I did not want what man said, but I wanted only what God said. During the time of my search, I received Jesus Christ as My Lord and Savior. I was so thankful to Him for forgiving my sins and washing me clean. Through His word, I learned that because I now belonged to the Lord, I was assured of eternal life with Him forever. Praise God!
