What is your story?

Everybody has a story...who are you? What has God done in you, with you and through you...what challenges have you encountered...what mistakes have you made? What are your successes? The more you think about it, the more of the story starts filling in like a jigsaw puzzle.

You might say well I am just 12! Yes that is true...now consider what Jesus did when he was 12...

It starts with your beginning. Most might label this a testimony but it is simply your story. A simple four step process should help. If you have a relationship with Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord, you should be able to complete these in some form:

Write your personal story using the following guide:

1. Briefly describe your life before Christ.

2. Write what you felt and experienced before you came to know Christ. Be careful not to get too detailed at this point. Don’t glamorize your past.

3. Describe your conversion experience. Include events and circumstances that led to you discovering your need for Christ. Many times we make the mistake of describing our baptism, not our conversion. Focus on when Christ became your Savior and Lord.

4. Describe the differences that accepting Christ has made in your life. How He changed your life? What has God done - and what is He still doing - in your life that has strengthened and affirmed your relationship with Him?

What about you? What's your story?
