I always thought that my testimony was the latest miracle God had just worked in my life... is it this?.... really?... is that my testimony to the glory of God?...or is it... something else entirely...

Years back I just had to tell the whole world what God had just done for me... whatever that was... what addiction I had just been set free from... the years of back pain I had endured that one day He simply touched and the pain was gone... the years of living week to week to week... trying to pay our bills... then watch His constant provision... story after story of the great things God was doing in my life... or just about to do... so the world would believe in Jesus.

I absolutely loved the ones I knew He was just about to do... so I could prophecy them ahead of time... tell the world... so when it happened... then they would believe... recently we heard that the end of the world would begin on May 21st.... sorry... couldn't resist... done something like that plenty of times myself... this is not our testimony....

God doesn't get "glory"  out of any of that stuff... I do... Philip basks in that baloney... as he humbly shares his testimony (to the glory of God)... lovin' every minute of it... why? Why do I love it? Because... unfortunately... deep down inside I think people will see what a wonderful close relationship I have with God... how special Philip is... how much God loves the old fellow and does all these wonderful things for him...

Then Philip can say to the world:  "Don't you want God to be your friend too... don't you want God to be on your side too... Don't you want to have God solve all your problems for you like He does for me... and on and on we go... sign up here...

I hope I'm not the only one that's just about to gag right now.... I am so grateful for His forgiveness... I am also so greatful to know what my testimony really is...

hopefully tomorrow...
