"And they praised
God because of me."
Galatians 1:24
There are many stories of how God has transformed lives. People who are
miraculously healed of diseases, or addictions, people averting accidents,
marriages that have been given new life -- there are many examples of God
working in their lives.
Whether your life has had some spectacular moments in it or not, all of the
lives of Christians are a testimony to God's working in their lives.
Jesus wiped away our sins by His shed blood and has clothed us in His
righteousness. We have become new creatures by the power of the Holy
Spirit.
All people should be able to see how Christians live different lives to glorify
God by their words and deeds. Christians should be out in the community
serving other people. Christians should display the gifts of the spirit
when others aren't -- patience, kindness, mercy, forgiveness, and above
all, love.
Transformed lives should be a living testimony to the grace of God and bring
Him glory in all things. Can people see God in you?

So many times you hear of someone who has been observing the life of a Christian and the evidence of the gifts in his or her life and they say, "I want to have what you have." What a testimony to leading a life filled with the gifts of the spirit as well as a testimony to our love for the Lord.
