I'm only 22, but am so lucky to have been saved through the grace of God, because before that happened, I was living a very sinful life.  2 1/2 years ago, fresh into college, I got introduced to the wrong crowd, and made bad decisions.  I became addicted to crystal meth, and was soon a heavy user.  I was less than 100 lbs, jobless, and living place to place.  I was very lost.  I didn't have a strong parental figure, and was looking for love in all of the wrong places, and dealing with my heartaches with drugs.  My family and friends soon became distant and almost non-existent. 

I had always believed in the Lord, but felt so ashamed that I could never find my way to him.  I was depressed, and tired of living life the way that I was, and had heard about Cruising for Jesus through my cousin Norma.  So I went, and the experience was unbelievable. I felt at home.  People there had all been through tough times and addictions, and were examples that it is possible to be better.  I was saved that night, and have never gone back to my old ways, God has blessed me big time, now I'm married and a mother of a beautiful boy, and could never imaging my life without God.  I'm not perfect, but I'm definately changed, and I give all the Glory to God. 

So if there are any young women out there, looking to be loved, God will never stop loving you, no man can guaratee that.  When times seem tough just pray, and he listens.  He did for me.  Never give up hope.  Stop by Cruising for Jesus.  Its a great place, with friendly, loving people who treat you like family. 

Thank you for reading my testimony, and God Bless!!!
