How can we not set about talking about the amazing love of God. He has changed our lives for the better. Had it not been for his love toward us we would not be alive on this earth today. Our story began back in 1983 when 2 crazy teens decided to get together, I was a single mom of 18 and my husband was only 16. He had accepted my son as his own which in a mother's eyes is all that was necessary to fall in love. the problem was that we both were still under the influence of drugs and alcohol in some form or fashion. We were searching for something to fill our souls, and the enemy gave us plenty to choose from. We ran with all the right people or so we thought, they were as lost as we were some more than others. It didn't take long for the fairy tale to end with all the drama that comes with that kind of lifestyle. I decided that I wasn't happy and no longer loved my husband of 9 yrs. I had become  a person seeking one drug after the other and when my husband no longer wanted the life style and actually ask me to start going to church with him, I laughed because I had been raised up in the church and could only remember those that were judgemental of a poor white class of people and seemed to look down on myself and my siblings. I didn't remember that there were also those who came to my mom and dad's rescue when she became sick and had to be hospitalized for about 2 weeks. All I could remember were the ones that Satan wanted me to remember so, I was much against the church as a whole and couldn't see past my hurt and really didn't even want to discuss anything that had to do with God or his word. We quickly went downhill from there and soon we were split with no thoughts of reconciliation. to cut the story in half, I will tell you that I ended up being beat multiple times and stabbed by the man I decided was the one and who had the same drug habits as myself. My husband ended up with another wife who was as jealous of him as he had been to me. We stayed divorced for around 6 yrs, and it wasn't until I had gone through a few more men and almost killed that i began to think about the life that I had chosen. I was still searching for something to fill my soul with the emptiness that had been there all along but never completely filled by all the things i was doing to myself for a fix. I ran into my ex-husband one day with our son and we started talking about what went wrong and soon we had worked out a way to get back together for good. We decided that we wouldn't look backwards, and we would never throw up anything from our past towards each other if there were ever any arguments. That was the start of our journey back together. We had another son as well. We didn't know it then, but our lives were about to change drastically. When we decided to move to WV where his family was originally from so that we could get a fresh start. We moved and started going to church with my in-laws. It didn't happen all at once but over the span of about 3 weeks I gave my heart to God and my husband rededicated himself to the Lord. We have since been involved in children's church, teen church and bus ministry and I have been a praise & worship member since 2000, and we are both now Ordained licensed Minister's for the Church of God (Cleveland TN) and have been for10yrs. We now have 2 daughters-in-law, 5 grandchildren, (2 boys and 3 girls), we are stronger than ever before, and God is our pilot every day. We hope that anyone reading this will take away some wisdom from our story. God will do for you as he did for us. Life doesn't always have to be out of control if you will give it to God and let him be the pilot in your life.
