Thank You Jesus for Healing Me

Remembering the Pain

When I think back to the moment I found out my sister had died, I can still remember the pain. I remember listening to the last song she had listened to the night before she passed, I got in my car and drove off, found somewhere to get high, (intravenously) and just stayed gone for days on and off for about a year or so until I got incarcerated.......I remember what that grief did to my heart and I would not wish that on ANYONE!!!

It felt like my heart was being ripped from my chest and my soul was on fire not in a good way, but in a way that made me want to scream. And every time I screamed, the pain seemed to grow stronger. That kind of pain is something you never forget.

Where God Brought Me From

I believe God does not allow me to forget that pain because He wants me to remember where He pulled me from. It is not because He is mean; it is because He wants to keep me humble and remind me of His mercy.

Before I fully surrendered my heart to Jesus, I carried pain on and off for most of my life. My little brother drowned when he was only eight years old, (in 1997) and I was fifteen. After that, my struggles with addiction began early. Later, my best friend passed away, my sister passed away, and another little brother was killed by a drunk driver while I was incarcerated, (all ranging from 2021-2022)

From Numbing the Pain to Turning to Jesus

The ache from all of that loss was something I tried to numb with drugs and anything else I could find to make it go away. But after I came to Jesus and completely surrendered my heart, that all consuming bitter excruciating pain no longer controlled me, Jesus removed that pain.....

I still cry, and I still hurt because I miss them. But I do not get stuck in that pain the way I used to, because now I know who to turn to. I no longer turn to drugs or alcohol. I turn to Jesus. I turn to prayer. I seek God now.

Jesus Saved My Life

Jesus saved my life. Because of Him, I want to live again. I want to laugh, love, smile, and enjoy life the way God meant for me to....and I do now...ALL because of Jesus!!!!!!!

You Have Redeemed Me

Take from me O’ Lord the breath that whispers the past, take from me O’Lord the voices replaying saying I can’t undo my mistakes, take from me O’ Lord the words that are loud in my heart, that try to condemn what You have already washed clean, take

Encouragement: Lets do it the Jesus Way!!!

We must be wise in how we interact with others; we must think before we speak, let alone posting anything. We need to ask ourselves, is it engaging with the Word of God, in the context we are presenting? Are we staying true to Jesus and His teachings? Are we

God's Agape (Love)

Darkness started because someone chose to rebel, breaking heaven and letting shadows into the world. That first act led to all the selfish choices, hurts, and habits that trap us. But this isn’t God’s fault, it’s a result of real freedom. Free will means we can love,

God's Truth is Freedom and Hope

This is one of my homework assignments and I am sharing it because it needs to be shared, and it is my duty to share God's love and truth with all... We have seen that sin does not ordinarily destroy what God has made, but it does distort
