My Testimony
Hello everyone I'm new here on Reddit and would like to share how I came to be in a relationship with our Lord and Savior. So I am 32 years old and could walk my whole life. I became addicted to pills around 16, 17, and I would take percocet everyday. I eventually found out about heroin around 22 and became addicted to that instead. I couldn't stop, I was so attached to that feeling and I did not want to stop. Well we all know how it says if your eye causes you to lust gouge it out. Well Jesus did that for me. I did some heroin on 12/19/23 and after I did it I passed out. I woke up hours later and stood up for 2 seconds then fell straight to my face. I couldn't feel my body I called the ambulance and got to the hospital. I ended up getting diagnosed with transverse myelitis. I am now paralyzed from the chest down. I also lost both of my legs from an infection. I was so upset. I lived my whole life being independent but it did stop me from using drugs anymore. Once my mind cleared up after a year of being clean so like around Christmas 24 I started having talks with my brother about Jesus Christ and started reading the Bible. The love that started to enter me and make me feel secured. It was unbelievable. It was like a high stronger than any bag of drugs I ever tried. It was simply the holy Spirit started entering me and filling me up with pride and joy and unconditional love. It was like Jesus was telling me "I know what you have done with half of your life. And I forgive you for that. I don't care about that at all I just want YOU to give yourself to ME." And I absolutely did. And haven't looked back since. I now know what my purpose is and why I'm here still. It's to do anything and everything to make my teacher happy! Thank you all for reading this, I love you all. Whoever reads this, I love you 💕 if I never would've become paralyzed. I never would've stopped doing drugs as bad as that sounds it's a lot better than spending eternity in hell.
