A Day I will Never Forget...
Today is 8 years since my life completely changed. December 19th, 2016 was supposed to be the date written on my grave but Jesus had a different plan for my life....
I will never forget how broken and messed up I was before He rescued me. To the world I looked "normal" but inside I was completely broken. Abused most of my life then addiction entered in. Pill popping, drinking and cutting my body became part of my life. I still looked "normal" but I was broken inside. Then I got diagnosed with MS and I could no longer hide my brokenness. I couldn't walk anymore and my body would shake uncontrollably. I thought God was punishing me for the life I had chosen so suicide entered in....
Early morning December 19th when I was about to commit suicide Jesus showed up in my living room. I heard His audible voice. He asked me to give Him my life since I didn't want it anymore. I surrendered my brokenness to Him at that moment. For the first time in my life I felt love and peace in my heart. Hallelujah!
That morning my addiction was gone and my body was healed. Before that I had no idea who Jesus was but I'm so thankful He came after me and rescued me. He forgave me, healed and delivered me
I'm so thankful God didn't see me as an addict that rejected His existence but as a daughter that needed to be rescued....
He rescued me from hell and saved my life. He crowned me with love and mercy.
Psalms 103:4
*The picture above touches my heart deeply. The young girl was also feeling suicidal. We both wept as the Lord was setting her free...
Thank you Jesus!!
