| Welcome!
My name is Charity.
I have a wonderful husband,
two daughters, TXBlue
and Birdie,
and six beautiful grand children, 13),(12),(12),(9),(3),
and (1). They
are all precious of course |

I
would like to share with you my testimony of how that I came to trust Jesus
as my personal savior. I was a single parent and on drugs. I already belonged
to the Lord because I had obeyed his call and was baptized at age 15. Because
of lack of spiritual influence from home or church I didn't stay close
to God and made lots of bad choices. At age 23, I was divorcing my first
husband and afraid and alone, with no means of support. I found a new identity.
I became a hippie. Drugs became my way of life. All of my friends were
either users or dealers. I had found something I was really good at. I
could out smoke, out shoot, out pop, out party the best. This kind of abuse
is only fun for so long, and then you become a burned out depressed, despairing
individual with no life and no hope for one.

| But,
there is a God. And He never quit talking to me, no matter how bad it got,
or I got. He was using this time of desolation in my life to plant seeds
that would bring me back to Him. At the age of 28, because of a hunger
God gave me, I surrendered my life to Him. I was instantly set free from
drug addiction and bad language. I began to attend a small non - denominational
church and within weeks was baptized again in water. This time with more
understanding. I was also baptized in the Holy Spirit, with the evidence
of receiving my own prayer language, (speaking in tongues.) This
experience enabled me to feel the presence of God in a way I can't describe
by human words. |
|
God
also revealed Himself to
me
through the bible, the written Word of God. He showed me that He is
willing to open up the real meaning of scripture by revelation knowledge
by the Holy Spirit. He was no longer just words on paper. He was
ALIVE. |
|
I
am not saying I became perfect. I am saying I became forgiven. I
became like a new person with a new heart and a new life. I was born
again. Did I ever make wrong choices again? Yes, I did. But, now with a
difference. Now, when I failed, I only had to turn to Jesus, confess my
sin and He was right there to pick me up and point me in the right direction.
