"December 20, 2018" 

Give a testimony today. What has Jesus done for you recently?

Jesus is the reason I am even alive today. He has had a design on my life from the very beginning and thus permitted me to survive things that should have killed me. I spent 35 years addicted to drugs. I used massive amounts of everything I used and overdosed numerous times. God was merciful and fulfilled His word to me. He had sent a prophet into my life at a young age who prophesied that I was to be a minister one day. God kept me alive so that His word through that prophet might be fulfilled and I am now a minister. God has also brought me through college. I graduate from Marshall University next semester with a regents bachelor of arts degree. I will then apply to graduate school. So God is good.

"Prompt: What is the best thing that happened to you this year?"

The best thing that has happened to me this year, aside from spending another year with the Lord Jesus Christ, is that I went back to college. Next semester I will graduate with a regents bachelor of arts and a minor in psychology. I am considering applying to graduate school either in psychology or theology. If I do theology it will be at a Bible college and not a secular school. I have not decided for sure yet.

Prompt: "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. ... discuss this quote"

I think life is 100% how we react and that reaction is how we react to the good news of Jesus Christ. If we accept and believe the good news and obey it then we have eternal life. If we reject the good news we have eternal condemnation hanging over us. There is no other way.
