Story #8
-
I was raised without a father and my mother was an alcoholic. I was molested and abused throughout my childhood. I turned to drugs and boys to heal the pain in my heart. Throughout my childhood God placed people in my life that knew him, and shared his promise of hope with me. As I look back its hard for me to believe how many times God tried to reach me before I was finally saved by his Grace. I met my Christian husband when I was a mere 15 years old. He was commited in his faith and I was drawn to his strength and love of Jesus. As you might imagine, his family was concerned, to say the least. Though he was only 20 and I 17 we were married, and have lived a blessed life together. Thank you Jesus for saving my life. Thank you for the 16 years of marriage and 2 wonderful children, I am so incredibly proud of them. Most of all, thank you for the many seeds you planted, during all of the pain I endured in those difficult years, known as my childhood. God is Good.
