Prayer is very important in my life. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Father, I speak life over all who read these words in the mighty name of Jesus. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. I was a thief, drug addict, hateful, always lying, a fornicator, adulterer, slothful, prideful, idol worshiping unbeliever who claimed to be a Christian. I was selfish and self-centered and miserable, even though I had things and a great job. I was addicted to anything that would make me feel differently, or what i thought to be better. I just wanted to feel good, so i destroyed lives, my family, signed my beautiful 3 year old daughter over to adoption after her mother passed away from melanoma, to a wonderful christian family. i resented myself so much for that and the pain was so deep that i tried to numb it with drugs and alcohol. God touched my heart, and awakened me from death, and i turned to Him in the depth of my addiction and despair and cried out to Him to help me. That was almost three months ago. I didn't try to make a deal with Him, i said here i am and i need you Jesus, i need your power to change and to live a good life. Many things have happened since then. I gave up my profession and business plans to help people who are going through similar things, and i work in a medical drug and alcohol detox center. I have never felt or slept better in my life. I am studying to be a counselor in this field, but i know who the TRUE COUNSELOR is. Please pray for me because this type of work requires wisdom and discernment. I read the Word daily, pray throughout the day, and cook for the people coming off drugs and alcohol. I try to live my life by the verse"Above all things, have fervent love for one another". I still dive professionally 1 day a week to support myself through school and life. I am grateful that God answers prayer and that i stepped out in faith, nothing has ever satisfied me more than this, i am working for Jesus and i know that i can do all things through Him that strengthens me. God bless and prosper you in his mercy and grace, by the power of His Love. In Him, Jeff.

 We are living epistles, and we are written by the Author and Finisher of our faith for all men to read. So just what are people reading when they see me, hopefully something that will attract them to Jesus, and enquire about why I am so happy all the time. I want people to ask me to pray for them, because I am walking in the demonstration of His Holy Spirit and Power not the wisdom of man's words. Sin is the disease and the blood of Jesus is the cure. It's all about Jesus Christ and Him crucified for all. He leaves the 99 sheep to save 1, He is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance, and I am beginning to have this attitude that I can make a difference in this world for Him, and I want to. I am sooo peaceful and I am in a trial, and I know that if God brought me to it He will bring me through it, and as He does I will be singing WORTHY IS THE LAMB TO BE PRAISED!!!!
