“Hi, I want to tell you about how I share my personal testimony with others in everyday situations. I share my personal experiences with God and connect them to the Gospel.
The other day, I was on my way home, wanting to take the train, when I saw a guy walking towards me. I stopped him and said “I am challenging myself to do something good to someone every day; I want to pray for someone every day. Is there anything I can pray for, for you?”
We started talking for a bit and I was started sharing my testimony. “Although I was raised Christian, although I was in church every Sunday,” I said, “I was wondering what difference it made during the week. Some day a friend of mine prayed for me and I experienced God for the first time, personally; I experienced piece and joy like never before, independent of my mental state.” “That is exactly the fulfillment I am looking for,” he replied. He told me that on the same day his depression came back and that his ex-girlfriend had taken their child to another country; If there ever was a lowest point in his life, it was on that day.
So I told him about the Gospel: A joy that comes from the Lord. We were separated from God, due to our sin, but the guilt we built was taken to the cross by Jesus to over come it, once and for all. I told him that Jesus took the punishment we deserved and that he could have the same joy I have, if he accepted Jesus’ salvation and started a relationship with God. And he did.
His face radiated with joy when he gave his life to Christ; he experienced God that day.” — sent in by AF

Wanda was desperate. She was accused of theft and subsequently lost her job and husband. She saw only one way out: Ending her life.
Hand in hand with her son, she went to a nearby bridge, intending him to jump first and then herself. But a Christian woman stopped her.
It was GO Day. She handed Wanda a bottle of water and said, "This water quenches your thirst, but Jesus can quench the thirst of your soul." This sentence changed everything. Instead of leaping from the bridge, Wanda fell into the arms of our loving God.
Today, she is a member of a local church. She was baptized and found new employment.

“Today I asked the gas station cashier how her day was going so far. She responded with OK. I asked if I could pray for her. She looked a bit shocked but quickly responded, sincerely, "Yes. You can.".
With tears in her eyes she asked for prayer for her anxiety. After I prayed she grabbed both my hands and thanked me. I asked her if she knew if she was going to heaven. She said: "Yes!" I asked how she knew and she responded "I want to go there because my dad and Grandpa are there."
I explained how we can know if we are going to heaven, I explained the Gospel to her. We went through the bible verses together. I asked, “now, that you know, is there any reason that you wouldn't want to ask Jesus for his free gift of salvation? We prayed together and she accepted Christ as her Savior today.” — sent in by LH
