My personal testimony

Before I was saved, I didn't have it very easy. I was mistreated by my brothers dad, which at the time was married to my mom. I watched him beat her and I would at times get hit too. I went to my school and told them what was going on, and somebody came to my house to talk to my parents, and they made the case worker believe I was lying and got beat for it. My mom left him & was with Charles my stepdad, and it was my 3 brothers, 3 step brothers, and me. My stepdad was very good to me. January 10, 2010, 10 years old at the time, I was brutally raped, I was brave enough at the time to get away from him and I was taken to the hospital and had to get stitched. My stepdad hung his self in 2014 and I was there to see everything. My mom got bad off on drugs, was never home so I had to take care of my brothers at the time, I'd have to walk up to the Dollar General and steal our food, at only 14 years old. When I was 15, i started home schooling, but it wasn't long after my laptop was stolen, and wasn't able to complete any work so eventually I was kicked out, and didn't get to finish high school. I moved in with a guy he was abusive, but made me believe he was the only one who loved me, I stayed for 3 years. Eventually I moved to where my Dad lived, I'm 18 years old at the time, he introduced me to drugs and I got on the needle very heavily. My Dads head got messed up from the drugs and confessed he was in love with me. I left and became homeless, also my brothers were taken and I can't see them anymore.

At that time, I felt hopeless, insecure, and I wanted help so bad. I wanted peace, I felt like God didn't have a plan for me, that I was supposed to lay in the woods till I froze.

Christmas night, 2019, I went to multiple houses trying to find somebody to let me stay the night to get out of the cold, my last resort was my uncle's house, and they let me stay but they wanted me to go to church. I agreed not to excited. The preacher asked me to pray with him, as he started to pray he stopped and asked, "God is telling me, you feel lonely, and hopeless. He wants you to know your not alone, and things are going to look up for you." I begain to cry and I felt the Holy spirit feel my body. I expected the Jesus into my heart.

Now, I am 4 months clean, working, and i have a roof over my head. I found peace in my heart.

I knew I wasnt alone I had God with me.

God changes lifes and can do the unthinkable.
