I’m OK!

I’m OK!

Jean: I was praising, loving and serving God UNTIL I was lost so much that I was devastated. I started taking prescription drugs and drinking wine. I told myself it was okay I was going to church and serving God.

I continued to tell myself I was ok until, the night I broke my arm and leg. I was taking to the trauma center and given more drugs and surgery. I thought someone was chasing me, but I was running for my life.

When they got me awake, I realized I was running from God. I had plenty of time alone to think, read God’s Word and to pray for Him to help me.

I was so scared of the thoughts in my head that I asked the Holy Spirit to help me. All I could say was “Holy Spirit help me!”

In all my desperate sobbing, I felt a power of peace like I had never known. I believe God was working on me all the while, but I had never stopped to hear Him. Praise Him He never left me. 🙏🏼🙌🏼
