| MINE IS A VERY OPEN AND EXTREMELY HONEST TESTIMONY ABOUT MY LIFE AND MY MAKING MY WAY TO THE LORD.I CAME FROM A VERY DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY[ADDICTS AND ALCOHOLISM]. MY PARENTS WERE VERY LOVING AT TIMES, BUT MOST OF THE TIME VERY CRUEL TO MYSELF AND MY 3 BROTHERS. WE DID NOT SPEAK OF THE LORD IN OUR HOME, AND I COULD NEVER FIGURE OUT WHY[ AS I KNEW IN MY HEART THERE WAS A GOD,BECAUSE HE SPOKE TO ME OFTEN. I STARTED USING DRUGS AT A VERY YOUNG AGE [13] AND CONTINUED TO THE AGE OF 42 YEARS. I FINALLY SURRENDERED TO THIS DISEASE, AND TURNED MYSELF OVER THE LORD MY SAVIOR.I HAVE BEEN CLEAN AND SOBER 7 WONDERFUL YEARS NOW. THE LORD WAS SO MERCIFUL TO ME AND CONTINUES TO WORK OVER ME NOW, I RECENTLY LOST MY 23 YEAR OLD SON TO THE SAME DISEASE AS I HAD, AND I AM TELLING YOU STORY AS MY TESTIMONY BECAUSE WITHOUT MY HEAVENLY FATHER I WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GET THRU THIS TIME.I KNOW FOR 100% MY SON IS WITH THE LORD AND HE IS FINALLY AT PEACE AT LAST.I WILL SEE HIM IN OUR ETERNAL HOME. GOD BLESS ALL MY NEW FAMILY I AM MEETING IN THIS GREAT SITE. |

Hi Jennifer
Frank TomiI am 48, and when I was a kid, it was a mess in my family, drugs, drinking, everything. It took me half my life to get over it. I'll write more later, I have to get to work. But I know where your coming from.
