After greeting them,

he related

        one by one

the things God had done

among the Gentiles

   through his ministry.

             Acts 21. 19-20

(There are few things

more impactful

  than the power of testimony.

God has given each of us

    a story for His glory,

unfolded day by day

     to point others to Him,

and to encourage the saints.

God is working mightily

   through each one of us,

our very lives a ministry.)

O LORD,

May the stories You have

   woven in our lives

   draw others to You.

Help us to boldly share

  how we have seen

  and experienced

  and known You.

Grant us the words and grace

         to seize every moment

    to be a witness for You.

May others see You

    in all we do and say.
