Testimony
Before I came to know the Lord, I carried a lot of offense and bitterness from past experiences. I didn't realise how much it weighed me down until I heard a message about bitterness that felt like it was directed at me. In a difficult relationship, I found myself trying to manipulate the other person to feel sorry for me. But in a moment of prayer, the Holy Spirit softened my heart and helped me see that person's brokenness through God's eyes. From then on, I committed to serving and praying for him, and as I humbled myself, my own life was transformed. I learned that holding onto offense only leads to bitterness, but letting God work in my heart brought real change and freedom.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
