True Stories

God designed each of us differently and uniquely. We are from hundreds of cities and villages all over the world. We have different customs and eat different foods. We have different struggles and have seen the Holy Spirit work in different ways in our lives. We all have a story.

Our stories matter. Why do you love Jesus? Who is God to you? When did you decide to try to be more like Jesus? Did something happen? Did a person in your life have an impact on you? Some people call the answer to these questions a "testimony". At TeenStreet, we call this your True Story. Take some time to remind yourself of your True Story today. If you don't know where to begin, answer these questions:
1: What was your life like before you decided to follow Jesus? 2: How did you come to know Jesus? What happened or what steps did you take? 3: What is your life like now?

Verse 4 says, "One generation will commend Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts." Telling other people our stories is part of the life of a follower of Jesus! Other people need to hear why following Jesus and trying to live like Him is a big deal. Your story needs to be passed around. The mighty acts God has done in your life need to be declared! Take a moment to work on your True Story today. Do it right now if you have time.

GO DEEP: What is your True Story? Who will you share it with?

BE BOLD: Who needs to hear this? Who could you share it with?
