I've never really opened up this much before so pay attention to my testomony please, it might change your life.
When I was 18 years old, I wasn't a very Godly person. I would walk by churches and never turn to look at them. I was into witchcraft and other unGodly things. I was running away from home at weeks time without even telling my own parents where I was or who I was with. I was doing drugs I was drinking badly. My life was going downhill. I was about to kill myself. I remember, I was in the kitchen I went into the drawer with the sharp knives and was holding it against my wrist, my dad ran down the stairs and said what are you doing. I told him I wanted to end my life. He said no. put the knife down. I did. Thank God I did. God was telling me no no Jenn, I have something planned for you. Even that wasn't good enough, I ended up in the hospitol for 2 weeks basicly, in a coma, I did a drug called Extasy. My first time at a rave party and I did it. I almost died that night. I woke up after 2 weeks starring up at the hospitol ceiling wired up in a hospitol bed. Thank God he let me live. Even when I got home I was still doing bad things. So my parents kicked me out of my house. I lived with my friends sister and her dad(Thank you norah, it means so much that u did that 4 me.) I called my aunt in Ohio, she said I could come and live with her for awhile. I moved out of Norah's home in about a week. Lived with my aunt in Ohio for like a week. My aunt told me later on that my grandparents were coming up to visit me. They saw that there wasn't something right with their little Jenny. My grandparents love me so much. (ty mamaw and papaw) So I moved down south in TN for like 3 years during those years I got married and divorced, anyway. I moved down to TN. The next day was Sunday. My grandparents invited me to go to church with them. I said,"ok i'll go." The next day I woke up put on my dressy clothes went to church. The second my foot hit the inside red carpet of that church, I felt like something left my body, literaly. like there was something inside of me that left, and something filled me up, I felt so free and loved, God was tapping on my heart the whole serman. I've never felt so much joy in my life! I was so happy. The next couple of weeks, I've never smiled so much in my whole life:) God was changing my life. To this day I thank Jesus for helping me. I'm so thankful for the person I am now, even if I had to go through all of those bad things, it made me the person I am today. Now I I spend so much time with my mom and dad and my lil bro Cole. I love you Mom and Dad and Cole. I love you Jesus.
