The quote below is from Bishop T.D. Jakes sermon: Faith in a Crisis. It is on YouTube:
"What changes lives is - show me where you hurt.
Show me where you bleed.
Show me where you fell down.
Show me where you almost quit.
Show me where you got tired.
Show me where you gave up.
Show me where your knees buckled.
Show me where your faith almost died.
Show me where you almost died.

There are a few leaders that will show you their wounds. Most leaders will show you their crowns...
Jesus showed Thomas His wounds.
Jesus was not afraid to show [us] His wounds."

I am not afraid to show you my wounds because in doing so, I glorify Jesus and show you that He really is truly amazing and that He loves us with a love that is unfailing. Jesus' love is like no other love in this world.
In sharing my testimonies, I get to show you that God is indeed a healer, and He is a deliverer, and He will protect you and fight your battles and give you the victory over your enemies.
God will make your enemies your footstool. ☆
My testimonies show you that when folks betray you and/or forsake you, Jesus is still there. He is so faithful.
My testimonies show you that those times when I did give up, Jesus showed up mightily! And that is how I am alive today and able to share my testimony with you.
Thank you, Jesus for your love that saved my life and changed my life. ❤️

Be encouraged! God loves you.
Love and peace,
Yolanda Billingslea (Ms. B)
