My name
is Steve and Jesus Christ has done wonderful things in my life!
Before
knowing Christ, I was miserable, confused and lost in the direction I was going
in my life.
I felt
like I did not have a purpose or a real drive to do anything. So I just did whatever
I wanted to do, disregarding the consequences that I was about to face.
I was
desperate for answers, but I always seemed to come up short. So I went into
hiding, covering my feelings and emotions with drugs and alcohol.
The lord
has been so good to me I've walked through many tough trials in life with him,
and he's never let me down not even once!
He gives
me power, and the hope each day to wake up with a big smile on my face and free
from addiction.
Which is
amazing because I used to be a heroin and meth addict, and a true addict at
heart!
I called
it quits one day when I overdosed on heroin and my friend left me in the
hospital parking lot to die!
The nurse
found me nearly dead and brought me in. When I woke up, I realised I was out of
it for two and a half hours!
Everything
was gone; phone, keys, everything. I had no way of getting home.
I then
cried out to God: if I get home without my parents finding out, I swear I will
never touch that stuff ever again.
And the
lord came through, I called a friend from the hospital phone and she gave me
the kid's number I needed that left me in the parking lot and he picked me up.
I would
have had to walk home in my hospital clothes in the middle of the night and my
parents would have kicked me out on the street.
After
spitting in God's face again, which I've been doing pretty much my whole life,
God still came through. It was amazing and I recommitted myself back to Christ
to come into my heart for REAL.
I've been
clean and sober ever since that day all praise to God for his precious son Jesus
Christ without him I would be a dead man.
Well God
bless everybody.
I hope
everyone who has read this story will praise God and his son Jesus for all he
has done for us on the cross, and accept him if not already into your heart as
your lord and saviour good luck.
