it was 1969 ...
Nov 17 2008, 9:37 PM EST
i had an awful pain inside when i was 17 -i'd already tried a lot of alcohol and drugs to try to kill it...i'd been physically beaten since i could remember, and sexually molested since i was three. i thought there was something terribly wring with ME ... and it hurt so BADLY !!! (we didn't go to church) i started "seeking" some answers about 12 yrs old ... i heard about Jesus, but i didn't know what is was all about, and i didn't know anyone who did ! at this time, i was poppin' 'bennie's' and 'dexie's' and drinking cheap wine, locked in my bedroom at home. i was shaking so badly, and wanted OUT OF PAIN ! i went into the bathroom and tried to cut my wrist with a double edged razor. it wouldn't cut me, tho... i cut the counter and a towel, but it slid right off my wrist. i went back in my 'black-lit' room, shut the door,and laid back on my bed and said: "God, if you're up there?...i need help!" a bright light came in my room, i felt the drugs leaving my body, and i was a little scared! then, somehow, i knew it was the answer to my doubt-filled S.O.S.! I was INSTANTLY sober! i felt something come over me that was unrecognizable. it took me awhile to define it... it was PEACE ! i had honestly never felt anything like it in my life! i fell asleep! IMPOSSIBLE with all the 'speed' i had in my system, but i woke up, got on the bus, and told my boyfriend: "Jesus Christ saved me last night !" he laughed, and said i'd better share whatever i was taking... even my Mom didn't believe me! That was the defining moment of my life ! i've never been the same since that night ! it is my most precious memory, but it never could be repeated or duplicated. i do recommend it, however, to the most doubting of all! lorna 3 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |
