Bible Commentary

John 4:29

Her testimony was her story — 'He told me everything.' She did not hide her past; she used it. The thing she was most ashamed of became the proof of who Jesus was.

Memory phrase: Your story is your testimony.

Talk about it: The woman used her own story as her testimony. She shared the part of her life she might have been most ashamed of. Why is a personal story often a powerful way to share about Jesus?

Prayer: Jesus, help me to use my own story — even the hard parts — to tell others about You.
