My Testimony: 2019 Version

Image
Hi, Back in January of 2017, I told my testimony. However, testimonies are ever-evolving, ever-growing and ever-changing. As you grow and mature you see things that you've never seen before. As they say, hindsight is 20/20. Meaning that so often we can only see what was really happening when we look back on it. I recently applied for Bible school and a part of that was a written testimony. So, I decided to share it here too. I've tweaked it a little and edited it to be a little more appropriate for this platform. Hre's a warning. My story is a really long, complicated story. But, I think that everything is important.

A Letter to Me

If I could say anything to the younger me this is what I would say... To the 5 year old me, You have the right to wear a bright pink skirts whenever you so desire!

You will reconnect with the friends you are leaving behind and that bond you have to leave behind will be even stronger when you find each other again. And you...

Some people prefer to give gifts and other like quality time more. It all depends on who you are and I think how you were brought up. Some people demand more love and others need little. I my opinion love has traits. "Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as ...
