Testimony: Miracles

Tyler's testimony "Miracles" on 2/15/2011, 6:14am...

I used to live my life and spend my time engaged in drinking activities. No matter what I did drinking had to be involved. There came a time in my drinking career that I realized I could not control my drinking and that I had to drink even though I did not want to. I spent years trying to modify my drinking habits so I could "control" being drunk all the time. Nothing ever worked and I became miserable and desperate. I prayed to God many times and asked Him to help me but nothing happened. You see I wanted to do things my way, live my life on my terms and still hold on to many of my former habits and associates. Many nights I thought I would die from drinking so excessively. I would cry at night with many tears pleading for God to help me to no avail. If I drank I felt like I was going to die if I did not drink the cravings made me feel like I was going to die. I poured my booze down the drain phoned A.A. but never went. One night I had lost a drinking bet and had to down a very strong drink. I remember feeling so disgusted with myself and that night I asked God that whatever He wanted me to do I would do it. I gave myself to Him 100% and told Him my way was the wrong way and only His way was the right way. I went to bed that night with this prayer. The next day I awoke and did not feel any different but as time passed I realized I did not need a drink nor want one. It was like a dream, but real as I have been 20yrs now without a drink. By the Grace of God I am now sober and alive, a once wretch of a man who still lives. Not only that but I am now an addictions counsellor helping those who are in need of the same slavery I was in. None of this is of my doing but only by the power of an Almighty God who can do all things for those who honestly ask and submit their lives and wills over to Him.

Only Christ Saves
