     #Tell The story

_everyone has a story to tell 

 Key passage: Psalm 78:4

We will not hide them from our descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.

Dear friend, 

What God hasn't done for you isnt as important as what He has done for you. Infant what he didn't do, he didn't do it for your good. With what eye do you look back at the years that has gone by and with what mouth do you tell the story? Because the way you see will determine the way you speak. If you can't see anything good, then you cant say anything good. If you can't see his goodness, then you can't possibly talked about his goodness. If you can't see his hand in everything that has happened to you, then you can't tell about Him. Is God deserving of praise? Is he praiseworthy? Don't just say yes, because you can't praise me if you think I  didn't do so much or anything at all (that will be hypocrisy). If God has truly being good through the year, then I believe you need to tell the story (first to yourself then others). How he saved you from an accident, how he delivered your family, how he provided, how he came through in the last hour, how he healed you, covered you, loved you, provided for you... tell the story!

*What story do you tell?*

So many of us are masters in finding what didn't or isn't going right, and that all we focus on and talk about. How I didn't get a good job this year, how I was in a accident, how I lost my dad, how I lost my job, how I was robbed, how I couldn't pay my bills and so on and that's the whole story we tell because that's all we want to see. Friend, that's not all the story. Don't tell a part and keep the rest out. If we are sincere and look in the other direction you will see beautiful things that has happened to you. How you didn't die in the accident, how you got daily provision, how you had what to wear and eat and a place to sleep. Tell a good story.  Don't go around boring people with what isn't going well, they themselves have a lot to deal with. Why not help them see that everything would end in praise if we all would keep a good attitude. 

*Your story is a gift to someone*

We often don't realize that someone out there is in desperate need of our stories - How did you carried on? What did you do? How didnt you quit?It simply tells them that if He did it for you, He can do it for them. If you can go through it, they can go through it by His grace. *Listen friend, always celebrate a story you want to tell. If you want to tell that he did this for you (while you wait for yours), celebrate it when you hear that he did it for another.*

Your story may not means so much to you until you hear another person tell of how it has helped them go through their fight. Don't keep it to yourself alone, tell it to everyone who will listen. 

So through this year, I know you have a story to tell. I'll give you the opportunity to tell it to the whole world. It doesn't matter how long it is, I'll post it on all my social media platforms  and also read it for everyone who cares to listen. God bless you!!
