What is you Christain Testimony?

Question

I have heard some pretty crazy testimonies on how people accepted Jesus Christ, and I want to know yours...big or small. I will put my testimony on how Jesus healed me...I really do not have one on how I was saved because I was saved when I was seven...but it is good none the less

well it starts about 5 years ago when my dad left my mom. Now, I really didn't know why he left her for a while, but I still hated him for it. I had such a strong bitterness towards him. However, I did what you are not supposed to do, keep it inside and not let anyone know how bad you felt. Then about 2 and 1/2 years ago I learned about the real reason why he left my mom instead of all the bogus reasons he would give me. He got a new girl friend and had one for a while before he left my mom, but we were still willing to take him back. I even met the girl before I knew who she was to my dad. If I met her when I knew I would have stabbed her to death or something like that. Now that I knew about this I had utter rage against my dad and would fantasize about killing him and his Girlfriend about every day. Such horrible ways that I cannot even begin to describe...after a while I would also think about killing myself.
No one knew how bad I felt at all,

that was mostly my fault for keeping it all in. Sure my mom knew I was sad and mad, but not to the extent that I was at. All I could say is Satan just loved how mad I was at him and how badly I wanted to kill him. I was convinced that I either had to kill him or kill myself.I couldnt kill another person so 3 months ago on December 26th I prayed to God," I really cannot take this anymore God, I pray that you forgive me for any sins I have commited and that which I am about to do, God if you are willing to give me the peace that you promise, send my mom down within the next minute or I will strangle myself" so I waited...30 seconds went by....40 seconds by...so on about 50 seconds I wrapped my belt around my neck and started to strangle myself...about 4 or 3 seconds left to go...my mom comes in, lol apparently my dad called and wanted to talk to me...if it wasn't for the person I hated most on earth, my mom would have been folding laundry and I would be dead right now...God used my

God used my enemy to save me...so I went to a Christain counselor and I learned that my unforgiveness is the root of my bitterness. I learned that I have to forgive my dad for what he did. Well I decided to give it a try...so we worked through it for about 2 months and by the end I had completely forgiven my dad...I let go and let God :) I know that God will deal with my dad, and anything that I would want to do is just destructive to myself. I have stopped going to counseling because I am completely healed...she said I am so impressed that you have come so far in 4 months" and I corrected her and said it was only 2 months and she was just shocked that I amde a recovery so quickly...

Now, I my own faith and personal walk has grown with God, and I see my dad growing closer to God every day...only God can take a hopeless situation and make it whole

well I know Testimonies are not important...I just like to hear how people came to Christ...I have heard some crazy unbelieveable stories

Answer 1

I statrted relying on God to get me through the days when my real dad was abusing me. I know if it had not been for God I would not have made it. He threatened to kill me and take me away from my mom and brothers if I ever told on him and would kill my prize pets to prove a point to me. I know that God ;loved and protected me and saved me through this to be the best parent I could be and I have 9 children and 4 grandchildren. Most all of them are strong ion the Lord and that is a great reward for me and the Lord.

Answer 2

I went up and got saved when I was not really old enough to understand all that it entailed, about age 4. I remember I was playing with my dogs one day and I started speaking in Spanish (I thought). I thought to myself that someone would think I was crazy for speaking like that so I never did it again......Until many, many years later I spoke in tongues. I was raised Baptist (they don't talk about gifts of the spirit) but I knew there was more to the bible than that but never found it until I went to a revival. Then the Holy spirit brought back to my remembrance the day I was a child and spoke in the heavenly language. God has never let go of me even when I have walked away from Him.

Answer 3

...you see, it's not my testimony that is important...
(that reduces Gods Power to the likes of an "AA" meeting).

What is important is, the knowledge that God can save and transform and restore... His Word clearly says... "behold, all things are passed away, behold all things become new"....
Giving edification to "my" life only limits what the life of Christ did for me... remember, it's not about "me"...or "you".... it's about Jesus... The Way, The Truth and The Life...
