I Accepted Christ as my Savior when I was 20 years old. God helped me during a very troubled time in my life.
I had an 11 month old daughter, my husband left me for another woman, and I had just learned that I was expecting another baby. My husband wanted me to get an abortion. I knew I needed to make a choice. I knew enough about God to Know that in His eyes abortion was wrong and not His answer
I knew I needed Help
I knew I couldn't do it Alone
I knew if I wanted God's Help I would have to do things His way
During that time a friend invited me to a bible study in her home. Even before I accepted Christ God was watching over me and placing people directly into my path who could show me His Way. I know now that God was answering the prayers of other Christians who were praying for me during that time
At the bible study I heard the Plan of Salvation and dedicated my life to Christ later that evening at home when it was just me alone with God
Trusting was hard for me because I didn't see a way out of my troubles. Even though I didn't see the way... God did. I just didn't stop believing and trusting in Him
I trusted God one day at a time
Looking back I can clearly see God's leading during those difficult times
Since then My life has changed ...My daughter Tiffany is now 21 and my baby who I named Joshua is 19. I am married to Steve a man God gave to me 17 years ago. Steve has assumed the role of father in my children's lives. Later Steve and I had a son we named Daniel who is now 14 years old. God continues to provide for me and our family. Although our family is not perfect God is still faithful to provide for our every need. without Him life would be very difficult
Before in my life during those days of blind faith I learned that God will take care of me. And today He still is..I never could have dreamed that my life would be as it is now but God knew. God did it and I give Him the credit I am writing this to give you words of encouragement. I am no one special and if God did it for me he WILL do it for you too. Just trust in Him and never give up
