Testimony

My Heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises! Wake up, my soul! Wake up, O harp and lyre! I will waken the dawn with my song. I will thank you, Lord, in front of all the people. I will sing your praises among the nations. For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May your glory shine over all the earth.

God is soooooo good. Today I was encouraged by a woman from the church who came for a visit and began to share testimonies of how the Lord is working through life. During her visit I bagen to think about how all of the believers here are so open to share their burdens, struggles, joys and testimonies with each other. I have been blessed time after time to hear about how the Lord is using them and the work he is doing in their lives. I have realized that I often am hesitant to share with others the things the Lord is doing in and through me because I think they will feel like I am boasting. It struck me that the thoughts I have had have actually been hindering me from encouraging others by sharing with them the things that the Lord is doing. When God does a work in any of his children he wants them to share it not keep it hidden in themselves. I want to humbly tell others of all the Lord is doing and not hold it in myself. I am sure that just as I have been touched by the people here sharing their testimonies God might use one of my testimonies to bless others. As the verse up top says I will thank the Lord in front of all people and sing his praises among all the Nations.
