Everyone Has a Story

I know that everyone has a story. Everyone has a testimony. Whether you're proud of your past, or you go from day to day, wishing that it never happened, it's your story, and the choices you made then, made you who you are now.
I have a story.
You have a story.
That guy that you can't stand to be around...he has a story.
That little orphan girl that you met on the mission trip...she has a story.
For a while I was afraid of sharing my story. I was afraid of telling people about my past, and the things that I had done, and the decisions I had made, because I wanted to make sure that it was all in my past before I really went on to talk about it.
But I know that's not what God wants for me.
I've found that telling your story gives freedom. It's this kinda release that brings an instant relief.
So...what's your story? Where has God brought you from? What has He been teaching you this year, as it begins to come to a close? What kinds of things has He been revealing to you, and how are you going to make a difference in 2011? Is there something you can do to make a difference in someone else's life so that they will Never Be the Same?
I'm praying for all of you. I hope that you are all doing well. Best wishes to the fundraising efforts, for those of you who are going on adventures this summer.
Merry, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
Looking forward to hearing from you ALL,
