(EDITOR'S NOTE:  This is a Christian who came across the evangelist "PULPITPASTOR" via AIM online.  Natalie is a Christian who has been through quite a lot in her life, though she doesn't mentions much about it here.  In this testimony, you could see her Godly humility.  God bless her in Canada and all those who reads this.)

Natalie's Testimony

I was born into a Christian home. I asked Christ into my heart at the young age of 4. But my relationship with him didn't start with Him till I was much older. I think at that age, you can't fully grasp what being a Christian really means and, therefore, it doesn't mean much to you.

I won't bore you with the details of my ups and down's. Just know I've had them. Like every other Christian on this planet, I'm human. I mess up and have done some pretty stupid things. I know for a fact, if you're reading this and you're going through a tough time you won't think I know what you're going through... that I don't understand. Maybe you're right. I don't know everything. But God does, and I feel I've been asked by Him to give you all comfort.

When God was in human form as Jesus Christ, he experienced what it was like to be rejected by society. The bible tells us that from day one he was hated and hunted down to be killed. That's pretty harsh. And yet, we as Christians, don't think he understands what it's like to be made fun of or hated for our beliefs. We still don't think he knows what it's like to be poor, or face being jobless and/or homeless; having family and friends turn their backs on us; being tempted; or feeling depressed and alone. From personal experience [and I have experienced each of those], I know Jesus does know what that's like. He's the only one through all the things in our lives who's still there for us at the end... and you know what else? He's the only one through those things that not only is beside us through it, but will pick us up and comfort us through those things.

There's a verse I turn to through hard times, you might also find to be a comfort. It's a little hard to understand the first time you read it. But I assure you, the more times you read it the more you'll get it:

"Praise be to God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any troubles with the comfort we our selves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted it is for your comfort, which produces in your patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you in firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share our comfort."

2 Corinthians 1:3-7

As I write this, I pray for the each of you who's lives will come in contact with my testimony. I pray that God in His divine will, may touch your lives and your hearts. He loves you, each one of you, unconditionally and without judgment. Never forget His love, His comfort and His grace.

In God's unconditional love, Natalie
