Powerful Transformation

Look what God did! The photo on the left is of me exactly 5 years ago today. My last day as a drug addict. I was a beat-down, hopeless wreck. 4 days prior to this photo (my mugshot) being taken I had cried out to God and asked Him to please get me out of that life. I had tried several times and knew I couldn’t do it on my own. I had lost EVERYTHING, including my family and I was sick of it. I told God I would do whatever He saw fit whether it meant rehab or jail or whatever but He would have to give me the strength. 4 days later I was arrested and went to the SAP program. I gave my life to the Lord and He set me free!! This photo is hard to post and kind of embarrassing but if one person can be encouraged by it and given hope then it’s worth it. God is into transforming people. He’s a good, good Father! 2 Corinthians 5:17 “If anyone is in Christ he is a new creation, the old is gone the new has come!” He’ll do it for anyone!

    Yes, it’s always hard to admit our flaws and failures (I used to be a foul-mouthed drunk), but we all have some. And when we allow Christ to transform us, they become a strong testament to God’s power and love!
