Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things [Philippians 4:8].

The new century version of Ps119 actually makes it clearer, they are actually not our own testimonies, they are God's. I see testimonies as a practical way to tell someone how God is a healer, when he heals us, or God is a provider when he supplies our needs, our the anchor when we had no one to hold on too etc
The testimonies are reflections of who God is, and what he is able to do, vs46... it can also be used as a tool for witnessing, comforting others etc.
***Phillipians4:28, I have been meditating on this verse of scripture all week
I can imagine that testimonies will make people hope in God. My life is a testimony and my family is one. A testimony doesn't have to be extraordinary it's the little miracles that God does everday in our lives. Thank God you're on blogger to remind us to seek God!

I am keying into this for abundant testimonies from the most High
oh, this is really lovely Rita...n I do know the importance of testimonies (that's why I started the TESTIMONY CORNER on Anoda Phase)...no, it's not vain at all; it's saying thanks to God, shame on the devil, and also encouraging someone else to hang in there, for their own testimony will soon come...
my favorite..Rev 12:11
They overcame by the blood of the lamb and the words of their TESTIMONY!!!!!!
I have been told that we receive trials and tests for our testimony account. The bigger the test, the bigger the testimony.
I have always believed in testimonies but this gives me a lot of reason!
There's a fine old hymn:
To save the sinner Jesus came,
To set the captive free;
And now my willing lips proclaim
What He has done for me.
So long as it makes much of Him tell what He's done for you
amen oooooooooooooooooooo
this is too true
i also have a hard time sharing testimonies some time
