Trusting in Jesus has proved to be the best experience of my life! Not only has he guided me spiritually, but he has blessed me physically as well. Im 18 yeas old, and left home after feeling that my parents couldn't care whether or not I lived or died (I had the key in my hand to get the gun and end my life, but my mom was to worried about me cleaning my room.) After I left home, I stayed with a friend in the "hood" here in Dothan, Alabama. During this time, I tried Heroin, LSD, Cocaine, Marijuana, and Alcohol to fill the empty gap.
Fortunately, I decided I didn't like the drugs, and left his house. being homeless I eventually had to eat something, and I can remember having to pull a maggot covered piece of chicken from a trashcan just to have a meal. then, one day, I walked by The Ark. I had heard that this place could help, so I joined. Bro James was in the lobby, and greeted me with a hug and called me brother! That was the first time in months I felt loved. Brother Woody even helped me overcome my depression through Christ! So here I am today, still in a shelter, but I have succeeded through Christ, in getting my GED, all of my IDs back, and am currently considering going to college to either become a Computer Technician or a Videogame Music Programmer. Jesus Christ is Lord!!!
