LYNNE EVANS'S BLOG

Ive been saved for six years but only got serious with God in march this year. I spent the rest of the time trying to find out how i could be a "normal" drinker, but of course this didnt happen because i was an alcoholic and God doesnt want it in my life, so after almost going insane, and feeling suicidal, i finally surrendered to Him and accepted i will never be able to drink again. its now nearly six months since i last touched the stuff and God is moving mightily in my life, i wish id have surrendered straight away but i have learnt a lot, especially about God's love, grace and mercy. He stayed faithful to me when people could have easily washed their hands of me, im just glad i turned back to Him before i had a drunken accident or before my children got hurt, for this i will always be grateful. I go to newton - le - willows christian fellowship and im grateful to them because they follow the Holy Spirit and are full of God's love, and they took me in with all my burdens, faults and failures, i love my church family. I love my husband dave for being an amazing man of God and for putting up with me!
But most of all i love Jesus because He loved me first.
