In May 2023 | found myself standing in the pouring down rain knowing that I had hit my rock bottom once again. I had relapsed for the umpteenth time. My heart was like a jigsaw puzzle but that final piece that you are searching for to complete the picture was missing. That corner piece. I searched in everything, filling the corner with men, drugs, alcohol, toxic relationships, everything. Everything but God. I knew I needed help and that I had tried everything from secular rehabs to 10 years in prison and none of it seemed to give me comfort and motivation. I finally decided it was time to call back Family Care and really give Jesus a try. I had a child at 15 and found Opiates. At the age of 20 I started using heroin again with my two youngest sons’ father.
That then led to court cases and prison time. After coming home I got into another toxic relationship that led to another relapse and another prison sentence. I came home and got a great job and reestablished my relationship with my children and family. I thought I was building my life again. Then I was introduced to meth. I lost my relationships and everything I had built in 3 months. I finally decided it was time to call back Family Care and really give Jesus a try. I surrendered and gave my heart to the Lord in May 2023. I now know what love is and the plans that God has for my life. He has restored the relationship with my children and family.
My children now are seeing their mother pray and serve the Lord. I may face uncertainty, and fear as I try to fulfill God’s plans for my life, but God is with me every step of the way. He is working all things for the good of those who love Him. Romans 8:28.
