Share the Good News!

  I was checking out the 50% off Valentine candy aisle at Walmart today — the day after Valentine’s Day — when a random guy started talking to me. He said the candy reminded him of the day he was adopted. He said his new parents took him to the store after they left the courthouse and bought him 7 sets of clothes — then they went to the drug store and bought him a bag of candy.  He said that he would never forget that day and he gave the credit to Christ for changing his life. I was so touched by that testimony in the candy aisle and I thanked him for sharing that with me.

Then I was checking Facebook and saw a testimony from a friend that I met thru Disaster Relief. He was praising God for 9 years of being sober — freed from addiction to drugs and alcohol — and gave all the credit to Christ. He is now working full time at one of the Baptist rebuild centers.

These men volunteered their testimony because they had been transformed by a mighty God and they weren’t afraid to share that good news.   When you have such Good News, you want to tell someone!
