It Is Not How We Start but How We Finish
The Importance of Testimony

Many feel their life story is not worth sharing. I’ve heard comments like, “I haven’t done anything grand in my life; no inventions, no discoveries or my name on a building.” Some may feel undereducated and others fearful of success, but everyone’s story has worth, and every story is unique.
We underestimate the power of a testimony, especially one that is a testimony to God’s love for us. When we respond to the Father’s promptings, he places us where he wants us to make the connections we’re called to make with the Body of Christ. Don’t be afraid to share your testimony. Yours may speak to another of hope and courage in the mist of suffering. It may open eyes to see the blessing of the Domestic Church and gift of true friends. We are on this journey of life together.
“How good it is, how pleasant, where the people dwell as one! Like precious ointment on the head, running down upon the beard, upon the beard of Aaron, upon the collar of his robe. Like dew of Hermon coming down upon the mountains of Zion. There the Lord has lavished blessings, life for evermore (Psalm 133)!”
