I will not die. Instead, I will live to tell what the Lord has done.

WITNESSING FOR THE LORD
A poem and essay by ILMA
Is your life geared to seek pleasure?
Do you consider God’s word as your treasure?
Have you given up your old life and put on the new?
Do you still struggle with troubles and rue?
The Lord created you to demonstrate his glory
Do you live up to his image and reveal his beauty?
Live your life telling others what the Lord has done
It is the only way you can emulate his one and only Son.
I went through many decades of my life trying to figure out what my purpose in life was. I wished someone would have witnessed for the Lord in my growing years and guided me to the truth instead of being swallowed up by the world’s system. God’s spirit was with me since I declared him as my friend and Father at age seven. He lived in me and guided me subtly without my conscious knowing that all that I was going through would be my testimony for his kingdom later in life. The bible tells us to not be consumed by the world but to live to tell others what the Lord has done. Has your life been a testimony to the Lord’s greatness?
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for all my experiences.
REFLECTION
Has your life been a testimony to the Lord’s greatness?
