- My story with God
- My parents didn't really take me to church. In fact i was baptised Luthernan and confirmed Methodist. They got divorced when i was younger, and my mother got remarried shortly after. My dad was an alcoholic and did drugs but he was still a great dad to me and my brother never laid a hand on us. My mom was distant and i resented her for a long time. When i was 14 i followed the same path my dad did. I started drinking and doing drugs. It was a way to escape. I dated a guy who did they same stuff and we were together for like 2 and half years. I found out he was doing cocaine and decided to end it because he starte to change and become violent. A few months later i got into trouble and got arrested for pot. I decided that i wasn't going to buy it anymore but i contiuned to use. I then met another guy who seemed to have his life together. I stopped doing drugs shortly after i met him but continued to party and drink heavily. I haven't done any drugs in four years for that i am very proud. I was happy in my relationship but after time it started to fall apart. We drank a lot together and it seemed to be a normal thing in our relationship. He became very manipulitive and would blame everything that went wrong on me. He later cheated on me numerous times and it broke my heart. I started to drink and party non-stop after we broke up and i didn't care what happened to me. I would get loaded and get behind the wheel. There are nights i don't remember driving. I know God took the wheel those nights. I started nursing school a few months later but felt like things just weren't right in my life. I met a girl in my classes and we started talking. Eventually she started talking about God and how He should be apart of my life. I have always had thoughts about God but never really had answers. I finally became and believer and cleaned up my life. I am a nurse today at a hospital and I hope to get my RN and drug and alcohol counseling degree to help others who are in the spot I used to be. I think that God has led me to do that because i can relate to the people with addictions. My dad's side of the family and all my past relationships have been alcoholics and drug addicts so i can related to the spouses and children of addicts too. God has sent me on this journey and I am so blessed to have finally taken the right path. I know now that I am here to be His earthangel to help others who were once like me.
