This is my journey. I wrote my testimony in 2022 and shared it here the only Christian forum that I did. Since this I have updated my testimony to this current day. For me my target area was people with autism and also an eating disorder, but I didn't limit anyone. Ok, when I had completed it after a pause I really set about trying to reach these groups. I brought new discussions to five autism communities online and also an eating disorder forum and shared on facebook. I also made a covering video later and turned my testimony into an ebook.

I then developed some business cards with a link to my testimony and shared those with some people in my local area and some people at church who read my witness. I also pinned the business cards in supermarket boards which I have checked and they have been going and not possibly binned as thought may happen.

I have done this and still try and support on forums when I can. My journey is moving, I am not the end product, but I do have experiences which I hope some people will find able to uplift them and support the church. Of course I am trying to direct everyone to Christ. If just one find anything helps and I can help part of that connection chain to make a change then it has been worth it.

All mostly from my home.

It is not ideal but I am working with my limiations.

What I have done is nothing, but I have done from my heart and tried to support. I have been limited through my conditions and God's know my situation. Everything I have done has been as given freely to me and this is the miniuim I could do.

I am always looking to share others work as well if I do not think mine fits.

I need space on these places sometimes to be me and I am just me and don't change anyway.

There are some online evangelism courses, I am on the waiting list for online with the Anglican church. I was so elated when I found it and then I found I have to September to start in the UK.
It is important that we do our best to be role models that we can be, nobody is perfect, but just as we have our feet up so to be speak, let us do our best to true to our faith as well.
Best wishes as always to you all

Although we can be guided with the work that we do online. You may also attend a church but which minister can oversee your online activities. Once in a while if may be in doubt is ok, but that is self indulgent to extend as they have a lot to do. I have the most wonderful rectors in my church for real usually things. You can be sometimes unsure of what to do next or if that was the right thing to do. Missing that second person advice about your life and direction as well.

With advice through religious broadcasts although it is all great most of the time, it is not tailored made. So yesterday I was listening to the bestowed Joseph Prince preaching and he said you never give up and keep on waging. However, people who know me focus on God's love and XYZ like it is ok to take care of yourself and take a break when you need it and rest...You understand lol.

I think online when writing in extremes unaturally it is a must at times to pause and take a break if needed. Go out in fresh air and step away from the computer. Sometimes I feel like I almost watching myself like a mirror online as your deep truths of your life in your computer. I miss the real life element at times. Conversation with the computer, but it is the way of the modern world it seems to be.

But try and look after yourself, second person can be missed. 11 months I targetted this in my areas I had in mind and it is hard when for work and recreation to get that break. Keep your interests going if you can and make time for you. Just do your best, you cannot do more than that.
