Every Believers Testimony
"The results came out and only three students passed the test (subject). When I checked my sheet, I saw I was only one point short. One of the students who passed noticed it and took me to the teacher. He requested the teacher to give me a point so I passed. The teacher showed grace and helped me pass the test. I had failed. I was ecstatic because I was among the four who had passed the test. My sorrow turned into joy"
Scripture teaches that everyone has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). No believer can save themselves from the challenges of life on their own. The Father showed His love for us and extended His amazing grace, allowing us to enter into eternal life.
Passing a test we understand. It's comprehensible. But passing onto eternal life?
I was converted (by the Heavenly Father) at an early age. But when conviction (mature realization) hit home, my joy knew no bounds. Immediately I recognized every other joy is temporary.
It changed me.
I lost my love for this world and the things of this world. God put a fresh love for Him in me. He gave me the grace to pursue Him—even today.
"I am grateful.
I am glad.
I enjoy praising God.
I'm confident that I will fly soon."
This is every believer's testimony.
We are blessed with the riches of His grace (Ephesians 1:3,7). Like Jesus, let's desire to be in the fullness of His Grace and Truth. This is made possible by the Holy Spirit in times of need.
Look at Jesus. He is the grace and truth we need to be caught up in His coming.
Maranatha, Praise God, and Amen.
