Grace and peace be unto you!
Everyone has a story. Who is your story supposed to inspire? Way too often we don't share our stories because we are afraid if being judged. There are afraid that role will hold it against them, so we sit on our story/testimony. You didn't go through all of that he'll and survive to sit on it. Somebody in or around your circle of influence needs to hear it. They need to know that they can make it. They need to know that like you, they don't have to look like what they have been through.
Don't sit on your story/testimony. It is proof of how you can come out if the fire and not smell like where you've been. You might have a scar as a reminder but you came out. Don't hide where you came from because it builds character and lends an experience that can't be gained any other way.
Telling your story does not mean all the fine details or parts that would incriminate others. It is not your job to ruin other people but for you to share how you overcame. As you tell your story you find new freedom each time. It doesn't matter how many times you have shared there will someone new that hasn't heard you so don't allow familiar faces keep you from sharing.
Until tomorrow
