Christian Testimony: Joshua - "How I Met Jesus"
This is Joshua's testimony about meeting Jesus (25 minutes long). And it's a really good one. It's not extremely dramatic or out of the ordinary or anything like that; it's just very real and touching. From the heart.
In his testimony, he takes us on his journey from being an aimless young teen with no sense of purpose or fulfillment or joy, trying to fill the void inside with drugs ... to how he found purpose, fulfillment, and joy in Jesus when God reached out to him in his pain, calling him to draw near.
And he urges people to remember that one day we are all going to die (unless Jesus comes back first). Do you know what matters most? Do you know why you're alive ... who made you ... who your Father is?
Finding God is not about religion; it's about relationship. And no matter how lost you are, God knows where you're at. He's calling you. He's pursuing you. He's been trying to get your attention. Because He loves you (enough to die on the cross for you, so that you could live) and He wants a real relationship with you.
Do not resist Him or ignore Him too long. You might not get another chance because you never know which day will be your last. But even if you do live a long time, if you resist Him for too long, He may hand you over to the hardness of your heart, finally giving you what you want - a life without Him!
"Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts..." (Hebrews 3:15)
"Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near." (Isaiah 55:6)
