Testimony
At a young age I asked my Dad about the communion at church that Sunday morning. That afternoon he explained to me that it was a celebration of Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection; that through it Jesus took my punishment for sin; that through it God offers forgiveness and salvation. That afternoon I asked the Lord to forgive me and be Lord of my life. I was baptized a couple years later and strive to live out that salvation with fear and trembling. My life verses are 1 Cor. 2:1-5 that ends with, "...so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of mankind, but on the power of God."
