Let me share something with you friend. Just a little over 2 years ago, I was so lost, I left my wife and kids and was sacked out of my mind, sleeping with some married chick, smoking weed and drinking with her every single night. This went on a few months. And my kids and wife prayed for me. My daughter said to me, dad I hope you still read your Bible. After that, the first time in a few years I started reading and praying again.
This chick and I broke up, I had no where to go and was sleeping out of my office at work, my wife despised me for hurting my family, I had no money because of my child support, I was so broken. I went up to the roof top of the building that night, ready to slit my wrist with the razor blade I had at my desk then jump off the roof. But God, as always pulled at me. And I broke even more. I started writing scripture on my forearms and wound up crying on the rooftop and praying to God for hours that night staring at the stars.
Since then. I’ve seen God do amazing things in my life, and the more I’m obedient and pray and do what he wants, trying to be more Christ like, the more he blesses me in the most amazing ways. He’s restored my family and has been doing miracles in my marriage. He’s lead me with jobs so now I’m in a great spot at a senior living home making great money. He even provided me side work through a friends church, enough money that was the same as a 2 weeks pay.
Turning to God is the best thing any of us can ever do. Tonight I will be praying for you my friend. And I pray God moves the hands he sees fit to work in your life at this time brotha
