Sandy Gibbon's Testimony

I've been a believer, of Jesus Christ, my precious Savior, since I was nine years old. I've belonged to many churches and have been surrounded by a great many witnesses of the power of Jesus in their lives. I have heard countless testimonies of people who have lived and suffered every kind of circumstances in their lives that has drawn them to Jesus. I've seen many have life changing situations that came because of Jesus' power. They accepted by faith in the fact that He came to earth as a person, lived and ministered to people here on earth, was crucified and raised from the dead on the third day and then was here for 40 more days and left earth and lives at the right hand of God. He's not just some figure-head but He sits there and talks to His Father about you and I and wants so desperately, as does, His Father, God to be in and among us and give us a life that is abundant and free and beyond what we could imagine. No fairy tale but a real life with the purpose to love Him more as He loves us more and prepares us to live with Him in a place that He is now preparing for us for all eternity. I am one of those witness, too.

I praise God because of all He has done in my life and has placed me in a church that is not only loving but seeks to draw others to God and build those who are part of the church for that time when all those who believe that Jesus is who He says He is and that He did die, was raised and ever lives to help us in our daily lives. On that glorious day when I depart this life however it may be I will be in the presence of my dear Savior and my lovingly Heavenly Father and will sing His praises forevermore.

It is a privilege for me to be a part of Second Baptist Church and I'm thankful for a loving God who has given me a church family to love and care for me. To Him be the glory!
