WitnessLA is proud to announce its ongoing partnership with our friends at 2x2. 2x2 is a platform for everyday people to stand up and share how God is speaking to them and through them. Why “2x2?” The concept is that often times people don’t think they have anything worthwhile to share until someone encourages them to speak up.
This week, our sister Jennifer talks about what it means to be hidden in Christ like a little babushka doll.
“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?” - Hebrews 13:6. Our sister shares an encouraging testimony of how after 4 difficult years of waiting, trusting,and learning, God provided her a new job and new life almost overnight.
Do you ever have those weeks where things just seem to pile on top of each other, problem after problem? I can definitely say that I just went through one of the most unforeseeable and unexpected things in my life.
For about 4 years now, I was extremely unhappy at work. It wasn’t just about being unhappy, but my attitude was bitter for a good amount of those 4 years as I felt like I was being attacked from all sorts of directions. Every day seemed like forever and I couldn’t believe how emotionally abusive my work environment was.
I cried out. “God, why are you doing this to me? What are you trying to teach me?” I repeated this over and over for a very, very – VERY – long time.
Where do we turn when the fire burns out? Our friend shares her journey.
Many testimonies are reflections of things that have already happened and seeing in hindsight how God has answered the prayers we’ve lifted up with the end goal of us as people and sinners having more faith. I’d like to share my testimony while I’m amidst the struggles I’m dealing with this very moment and also share my attitude in hopes that it will encourage you to remain faithful in the Lord in your times of hardship.
Let’s back up to January 1, 2011. For some reason, I really felt like God gave me a fresh new start this year in my walk with Him.
