Angeline's testimony "A True Gift" on 2/21/2012, 12:03am...
I never was a very good christian really didn't understand it. I guess I believed or wanted to believe but didn't practice it or even really cared. Growing up I went to church because mom and dad said we had too. Thank God for that or I wouldn't be the christian that I am today which is not the greatest one at that BUT I do know that I believe and I am truly grateful for that wonderful man that died for my sins and yours too. He sacrificed his life for me and because of this I get to go to heaven a place like no other a place of pure goodness of perfection. Anyway back to my Story well I am an addict. Like everyone in this world thats my biggest issue. Which is big because it interferes with everything in your life. EVERYTHING. Love,Happiness,Money,Family, u name it. So I became addicted to Meth. Very highly addictive but for some reason it didn't really make me a horrible person but it did keep me from having some morals. I didn't steal or anything I actually became intrigued by the people of that world. Met alot of great people with just one big problem meth. Before this addiction I was a theif a liar didn't care what i did or who i hurt. Its almost like it brought me so low I had only one person to turn to and that was God. Wow what an amazing book the Bible is. It pointed me in the direction i needed to be in everytime i turned to it. Now let me go back a little bit.
Well during these seven years I became Pregnant. I continued to use meth while I was pregnant. I would ask God everyday for forgiveness that i would quit when i knew i could handle it. I was exactly 8 months pregnant and hadn't been to the doctor or anything well I knew it was time to stop. I cried and remembered the one person to turn to in need this was the first time I really had conversation with Him. I went outside I cried begged pleaded and asked him to take the addiction away that i loved my baby and i had to do this to keep him. It was the most amazing feeling to have something lifted from you like that. Wow let me tell you It Was GONE...amazing miracle I never thought that it would happen that way..
The next day I got up got dressed called the doctor got on medicaid got Wic all in one day and a month later I had a PERFECT HEALTHY Little Angel....A beautiful Boy...I wasnt afraid of him having problems because I knew he was okay the whole time u know why because God was there with me the whole time he didn't judge me for my drug abuse or addiction. He knew i would need him and when the time was right he would intervene and I would run to him. And I did. And he held his arms out and said its okay your forgiven I love you like you will love ur baby boy..I named him Samuel Elijah. He is 6 years old smart handsome funny sweet and I he is my miracle my testimony and the beginning of my search and need for God in my life. I am now blessed with 5 children a wonderful spouse an amazing family and My needs are met. I am so thankful for all the blessings in my life. I get down and start to blame God but guess what who doesn't have bad days Thats life as a sinner.
Well I hope u enjoyed my little story. BE THANKFUL AND LOVE GOD WANTS US TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER. Treat those around u like u want to be treated. Sometimes its hard to do but love is good so only good can come from good!!!!!!
