Testimony - Jarno

I wrestled with God for a bit, but in the end I concluded that God loves me, and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with Him.

So I gave my life to Jesus, and I got baptized in November 2015.


- Me, and Pastor Ben Reynolds

My testimony is actually in the Bible.

This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
- 1 Timothy 1:15-17 (KJV)

But seriously, God saved me from a very dark place, and I know that He can do that for you too.

The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
- Psalm 34:18 (KJV)

I used to think of myself as a "good" person, but looking back now, I can see that I was actually a rather selfish person, and I have many regrets in my life. God has gradually won me over with His Love. God's ways are simply better (love God, and love one another).

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
- John 13:34 (KJV)

Only now can I see what God has done for me over the years, and I'm very thankful for it.

God is willing to do the same for you. Just ask Him to reveal Himself to you, and He will.

Give God a go!
