"This is what GOD did for me.
At a very young age my life was in a very unstable family. The family that was involved in my life were drunks, so you can see there was no positive influence in my life. I had my first drink by age 12 yrs old and it got worse from there. At age 15 I was introduced to marijuana and that opened a flood gate to harder drugs with criminal behavior.
In 2008 was my first arrest, after about a year of freedom came pills and I really liked them. Now was the time of my great downfall. In and out of jail till I needed to do big boy time. I would do whatever it took to feed my habit. My habit landed me a 10 yr prison sentence. I ended up blessed with that instead of cursed. GOD found me right at the very bottom of my pit.
It started with a young man telling me that I needed say I was sorry to some people of my past. That began with me apologizing to GOD and telling HIM how sorry I was for sinning against Him. That was just the start, then came letters to my ex, and so many people I wronged, lead astray, or took money from wrongly. My life with GOD changed everything about me, the way I talked, thought and acted. GOD was my new life. Waking in the morning to read and study the Bible, to work group discussions about GOD, to the evening group talk, learn and study GOD's word.
Coming to Safe Harbor Jefferson County at a friends advice was the best course of action I could have ever made. My faith relationship has grown and prospered abundantly since coming to Safe Harbor, where people I knew from prison are here with me. I have a job that has given me new meaning to earning money instead of robbing for it, while no watching over my shoulder for the police to show up. The only one showing up in my life now is GOD and HIS Blessings. Now I can look forward to what tomorrow holds, because I know my tomorrow is in GOD's hands."
