March 15 - Missoula Alliance Church

I was
talking to my friend the other day, telling her how I feel
as though my testimony doesn’t have much to it. I was born
and raised in a Christian home and accepted Christ into my life
at a young age. I’ve never really had any huge revelations or
hardships or anything really inspiring happen to me. I grew up
hearing these beautiful testimonies. My friend then said
something that will stick with me for the rest of my life. She
said “You know how people who are born rich can sometimes
take it for granted? Or people who were born into royalty may
take it for granted? Well, that’s us. We were born into royalty.
We are beyond blessed, and we take it for granted that we
were born into a family who loves the Lord…” God made sure
to ground me in my faith in this way. But ultimately what
makes each person’s story so incredible is the moment they
choose to follow Christ. Whatever your story is, it is going to
be a masterpiece created by God. You will look back on it and
see how much God has loved you so unconditionally. You will
see His faithfulness and evidence in your life, and it will
contribute to a beautiful, ongoing testimony.
