Whenever I was a kid, I didn’t know about God and I didn’t have any desire to know about him.
I started smoking weed when I was about 12. That quickly led to other things. I eventually started to use IV, and I was sold out to it. My drug of choice was opiates, but I found myself using meth with them. My life was a constant chase. I lived in a state of paranoia that I couldn’t escape. In July of 2014, I found out I was pregnant but I still couldn’t stop. The following month, I was arrested for manufacturing in the 1st, tampering with evidence, and possession of narcotic paraphernalia. I bonded out and was back in jail two months later for burglary in the 3rd and possession of drug paraphernalia. I was only in jail for a month when they transported me to the Haven of Hope, and I still wasn’t ready to change.
About a month into my program, I ran and was back in jail again ten days later with a new charge. This time, I had to stay for a few months, but I’m so thankful for that time because while I was there I gave my life to Christ. I had finally had enough and realized I couldn’t keep doing this, and I couldn’t do it on my own.
On March 19, 2015, I gave birth to my baby boy shackled to a hospital bed. The hardest thing I’ve ever had to do was leave him there and go back to jail. But God showed his mercy again in my life, and not only was I transported back to the Haven, but half way into my program, I was allowed to move into the Hope House with my son. He was two and a half months old when he came, and we’ve been there for a little over a year now. My relationship with my son has been completely restored, and I’m a full-time mom to him.
I am now working in the Hope House where I get to help other moms with their babies so they can do their program. The Lord has also worked out all of my legal issues. I was charged with 3 felonies and put on probation, but once I complete it, all of my charges will be dismissed. The Lord has been so good to me. I’m so thankful for his grace and his mercy in my life.

It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is thy faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23
