God Glorious & Saving Grace has changed & transformed my life - Lorraine Tavarez
“I can do all things through [a]Christ who strengthens me.”
Submitted by: Lorraine Tavarez
Back in 2007, I gave my heart to Jesus. I was living in sin, in addictions of substance abuse and alcohol for years. Those things were my escape from being unhappy and depressed all the time. It got to a moment in my life; that those things was just a temporary feeling, but it didn’t fill me up.
I kept falling deeper into my depression, until God place this beautiful Christian elderly couple in my life.They spoke to me about how much Jesus loves me, and that He gave his life for me, and for my sins. I thank God for them; I came to know Jesus as my Savior.
Once I surrendered, and gave him my heart, He delivered me right away. The urges of my addictions were gone; I kept trusting in him to help me in his path. I thank God, till this day; He still continues working in my life, to be the person He wants me to be for his will and purpose for my life. I will continue now and for the rest of my life; believing in His word and in His promises. These two scriptures help me in this journey with the Lord until this day.
“Truly my soul silently waits for God;
From Him comes my salvation.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my [a]defense;
I shall not be greatly moved.”
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Abba Father, in Jesus' name I pray; that you deliver those that are going through any kind of addictions like you delivered me from mine. There is hope and deliverance only in you, my Lord, my God. In the name of Jesus I pray.
Amen
