And I Thought My Testimony was Powerful....

Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please watch this. The whole thing. It. Is. Powerful. This is what my small group watched last night during our bible study and fellowship time. This small group of friends are so vital to me, my husband, and my children--- we are connected at such a personal level that they are more than friends-- they are extended family. If you are not part of an intimate group of people that you can confide in and depend on-- I encourage you to do so. They are worth the time and effort it takes to gather to have fellowship with them. Four words-- Friend, faith, food, and fellowship.

We have this on DVD and CD. I cry every time I hear it. I LOVE the Brooklyn Tabernacle. Have you read Fresh wind Fresh Fire by Pastor Cymbala? Powerful book!

Tereasa said...

Yep, that was very cool.

"God goes further than we ever dare to ask." How powerful a statement that is!! I forget our God is that powerful...probably due to the fact that I was kept safe (by Him) from going that far down. What an amazing testimony!!

That was awesome Christine! Even more than God changing Danny's life (consider what he did with Apostle Paul) Wanda's faithfulness is amazing and how God used her to reach the "unreachable." Couldn't the world use a million Wandas?! We need to be more like Wanda. (Well, I know I do.) Glad you posted this. Thanks =)

Great testimony to prayer. Great testimony. Thank you for sharing this. Sometimes I think my prayers aren't being heard....I know people like he was....I'm still praying. This gives hope...hope. God's timing....not mine.

This is such an amazing story of God's amazing power. It made me weep. This story is so close to the story of my mother. For years she was addicted to drugs and alcohol, living on the streets and selling her body for money. I never gave up hope and never stopped praying for her. She finally put everything into God's hands and her life has never been the same. After 30 years of addiction she was finally set free by the grace of God. She has been clean and sober for almost 4 years now. She has become a testament of what God can do. You can never go too far away from God that he cannot reach you. She was never able to be there for me when I was growing up because of her addiction but thankfully she will be there for my children as their Grandmother. Thank you for this post. It will allow this message to reach so many more people.

Awesome. I am thankful we serve a merciful God. We are all His "trophies", we need to show the world what He has done for us.
