About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

YOU CAN BE HEALED FROM ADDICTIONS
YOU CAN BE HEALED FROM ADDICTIONS
I WRITE THIS TO GIVE GOD THE PRAISE AND GLORY HE DESERVES AND TO THANK HIM, PUBLICLY, FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR ME. MAYBE IT WILL HELP SOMEONE OUT THERE WHO IS STRUGGLING.
I WAS BORN-AGAIN IN MY TEEN YEARS AND HAVE ALWAYS LOVED JESUS. HOWEVER, WHEN I MOVED TO D.C., IN MY 20'S, I GOT AWAY FROM HIM AND STARTED DRINKING. SOME OF YOU KNOW THIS ABOUT ME BUT I WANT TO SHARE IT TO GIVE ENCOURAGEMENT TO THOSE WHO MIGHT NEED IT. THIRTY-ONE YEARS AGO I WAS AN ALCOHOLIC. I HAD TO START MY DAY OFF WITH A GLASS OF VODKA OR I COULDN'T FUNCTION. I WAS IN AND OUT OF THE HOSPITAL FOR YEARS UNTIL MY BOSS, AT THAT TIME, MADE ME GO WITH HIM TO A HOME BIBLE STUDY. IF I DIDN'T GO I WOULD BE FIRED. OBVIOUSLY HE KNEW MY PROBLEM.
I WAS IN SUCH BAD SHAPE WHEN WE GOT TO THE MEETING THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TEACHER WAS EVEN TALKING ABOUT BUT I HEARD JESUS SAY TO ME THAT I HAD LEFT HIM BUT HE WOULD NEVER LEAVE ME. I STARTED TO CRY AND WHEN I HEARD, "DOES ANYONE NEED PRAYER" I STOOD UP. I TOLD THEM THAT WHAT I NEEDED WAS A DRINK BECAUSE I WAS AN ALCOHOLIC AND I REALLY HAD THE SHAKES. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD SOMETHING MUCH BETTER THAN A DRINK. THEY GATHERED AROUND ME, PRAYED AND GOD HEALED ME FROM THE ALCOHOLISM THAT NIGHT. IT WAS AS IF I HAD NEVER HAD A DRINK IN MY LIFE AND I HAVE NEVER WANTED ONE SINCE. AT THAT TIME I PROMISED GOD THAT I WOULD NEVER DRINK AGAIN AND THAT I WOULD LIVE EVERY DAY OF THE REST OF MY LIFE FOR HIM AND I HAVE.
IF YOU ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH BEING ADDICTED TO SOMETHING, ANYTHING, JESUS IS YOUR ANSWER. IF YOU THINK THAT JESUS DOES NOT HEAL, I AM LIVING PROOF THAT HE DOES. ONLY BY HIS LOVE AND GRACE AM I HERE TODAY. JUST TRUST IN HIM AND BELIEVE THAT HE WILL DO THOSE THINGS HE SAYS HE WILL DO. HE IS FAITHFUL AND HE LOVES YOU VERY MUCH. JUST TRUST HIM. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
DAVID
