I am linking up with Five Minute Friday for today's post.
Today's Five Minute Friday is: Share
It is so difficult to share one's own story
Because many people don't want to hear it.
They are not believers
In the one who can change their lives.
Or they think it won't make a difference.
Sharing lifts a burden that
Was once thought to be just their own
To take on.
Sharing creates a community of people
Who may have a similar story.
Of people who truly care about others.
It eases the pain of the bad times
And magnifies the good times.
Sharing requires nothing
Except one's own voice
Which is more powerful
Than anyone may think.
That is the beauty of sharing your story.
Words have the power to move others
In a way nothing else can.
Don't be afraid to tell your story
If it can help even just one person.
Amen! It's amazing how God can use our stories in the lives of others, even when it's so easy to get discouraged when it seems like our words have no effect. He is so faithful. These were my favorite lines: "It is so difficult to share one's own story / Because many people don't want to hear it. / They are not believers / In the one who can change their lives" and "Sharing requires nothing / Except one's own voice / Which is more powerful / Than anyone may think."
