Throughout
the years I experimented with drugs. I tried pot a few times and
didn't get into heavy drugs until I was twenty-eight. Then my husband
and I lost our jobs. At that time I became addicted to gambling.
Due to the gambling and other addictions we lost our house and moved
into a hotel with our four children. We eventually moved into public
housing.
After my husband went to work on the road, I
became seriously addicted to meth. My husband eventually went to
jail and financially we were struggling again. I couldn't work because
I have a handicapped son that was in the home at that time. Then
I sold my son's behavioral medication to get money, the consequences
of that got me arrested, this also caused my children to be taken
from the home. I tried 12 step programs, which just didn't work
for me.
Then I found out about Addicts Victorious and
the 5-day Biblical Counseling Program, it truly changed my life.
I finally found peace and victory from my addictions. Through that
I received a close relationship with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
And I'm now walking with Him every day. I now turn to GOD when we
have struggles instead of drugs.
