Everyone has a testimony to share, but some Christians don't live as if their life is living proof of God's goodness and loving-kindness. So many believers feel like they have nothing to share and that their stories are unremarkable. Whenever you feel that way, remember who wrote the story of your life and who the main character really is.

Initially, everyone thinks that the main character of this story we live out is us. We think we're the centre of everything that happens. When good things happen, we feel like the hero of our own action or feel-good movie and we like to talk about it. When bad things happen, all of a sudden we become the victim in a drama and we hide behind the shame and hurt.

But the more we walk with Christ, the more we realise that we're not the heroes of our life stories—He is. Yes, it's our story, but we're not the heroes and it's not about us. It's about Jesus coming to our rescue and being in and with us every step of the way.

Psalm 66:16 declares, "Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will tell you what he did for me" (NLT). Just like the psalmist, we all have something to tell, and the focus of our story starts with Jesus Christ and what He has done for us. He is both the author and the perfecter of our faith and thus our very being.

You have a story to share about your encounter with Christ. No one encounters Christ and remains the same. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come" (ESV). The New International Version (emphasis added) says, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come..." We are added into a whole new storyline and it's an exciting one where Jesus comes and saves the day. We will never be and are never the same again after experiencing Christ.

Maybe you were liberated from a sinful pattern or healed from a physical or emotional sickness. You might have experienced financial or relational breakthrough. God works miracles in our lives on a day-to-day basis. And the greatest miracle of all is that once we were lost and now we're found. We are like children once separated from our Father and now we're back. How is that not a story worth telling? Oh what joy that should bring to us all!

There's no such thing as a boring Christian life because we don't serve a God who is boring. We serve a wonderful God who brings great breakthroughs and blessings into our lives, and even in moments where challenges come, He is there with us. I don't think any Hollywood movie plot can or will compare to that.
