MY LIFE WAS OUT of control. Booze, boys and bad decisions were the norm for me. I felt like I had an unsolvable problem. Every intention, every goal, every step in what I considered the right direction did not sustain the deep-rooted void that plagued my soul. The weight of the world was heavy, but the partying and meaningless relationships lightened the load intermittently.My love for alcohol and boys started at a young age and only intensified after I joined the Air Force. Joining the military helped me escape the clutching grip of an abusive boyfriend. Embracing my worldly travels, I celebrated everywhere I went because fear was a factor when the spotlight illuminated my inner soul. Throughout my journey, I met and married my husband. There was never a sense of security, nor trust, initially, but we did survive the tsunami of his infidelity from the unlikeliest place for me--church.Never in a million years did I think God was the answer. He was. My void overshadowed with unconditional love. My journey so shallow, my end so fulfilled. How could peace and healing be so real and whole? Healed from the inside out, my faithfulness now lies in Him.
