2 Timothy 1:8 says, do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord. I wrote a blog post in August 21, 2014 about why it was important to share our testimony, our journey, our story about how God saved us from a sinful life of emptiness. And how we must tell others that when we have a life of Christ, we are full. It doesn't matter the challenges, setbacks, or heartaches we are experiencing or we've experienced, having the Lord in our lives adds comfort, healing, solace, power, love, peace, and whatever else we need at any given time. Jesus is there whenever we call on Him. It doesn't matter the time of the day, He is always awake. 

The following is just one story regarding a powerful testimony of God's goodness: Many people believed in Jesus because of one woman’s testimony. She was the Samaritan woman who spoke to Jesus at the well. She was what many would consider a hot mess, like many of us were at any given time in our lives, right? Maybe not you, but in a sense I definitely was BC (Before Christ). After her encounter with Jesus, her life changed. She wasn't the same person, so people thought 'wow if she can change. so can I.' After the people heard her miraculous testimony, they said, “we no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world.” You can read more about her story in John 4:39-42. Don't be afraid to share your testimony. It can really help somebody.
