My Testimony

   I’ve always believed in Christ. For years, I called myself a Christian, but looking back, I realized that I don't think I was truly saved. I didn’t understand what it really meant to walk with Him in a deep, personal relationship. It was more head knowledge than heart surrender. At the time I didn't feel that way, but looking back you get to see some things more clearly. 

My testimony.. 

   It starts here... I met my wife. 

From the very beginning, something was different between us. It wasn’t just attraction or shared interests it was an instant, genuine connection, like two pieces finally fitting together. I knew right away I had found my other half. As our relationship grew, we built a life together. We started a family, faced joys and struggles side by side, and grew even closer. She became my safe place, my partner in every sense of the word. 

    At some point, she felt a strong pull toward church. She started going regularly, and that opened a whole new hunger in her. She dove into Bible studies, bringing home what she was learning. One of the simple practices that stuck with her was writing Scripture on Post it notes and placing them where she’d see them often on mirrors, cabinets, the fridge, even the bathroom wall. At first it was just one or two little yellow and green squares. Before long, our house was covered in them. I’d walk through the rooms and catch myself reading those verses without meaning to. Slowly, I started memorizing some of them. More than that, I became a quiet witness to what God was doing in her heart. I’d see the change in her the peace, the joy, the way she leaned into faith. 

   At first, I thought, “That’s good for her.” I figured my own walk was fine the way it was. I didn’t need to go deeper. But over time, something shifted inside me. I realized God wasn’t just working in her He was working in us. Because in His eyes, we are one. The sacredness of my marriage, the way my wife and I are joined as partners and covenant companions, started to open my eyes. The love and unity we shared on earth became a living picture of the kind of close, daily relationship Christ wants with each of us.That’s when it really hit me. What I thought was just God moving in my wife’s life was actually God revealing to me the importance of relationship itself the depth of a true covenant. 

    He used the most beautiful, earthly love I’ve ever known to show me what I was missing with Him. I saw my need to stop standing on the sidelines and step fully into a surrendered walk with Christ. To talk with Him, listen to Him, trust Him, and love Him the way my wife and I love each other honestly, daily, completely. My real salvation happened in that season. It wasn’t in a dramatic altar call or a single moment of lightning revelation. It unfolded quietly, through the love of my wife, through those little Post it notes scattered around our home, and through the gentle, persistent work of the Holy Spirit showing me that I was made for relationship with her, and most of all, with Him.

   I’m so thankful God used her to reach me. She didn’t preach at me or pressure me; she simply walked with Jesus, and I got to watch. That example, that partnership, became the bridge that brought me home. Now we walk this faith journey together, as one, and I’m learning every day what it truly means to be a follower of Christ not just believing in Him, but living in close, covenant relationship with Him. My wife led me closer to the Lord in the most unexpected, beautiful way, and I will always praise God for that gift.
