I believe in God because

Posted on February 27th, 2008 by lhitchcock in I believe in God because…

in the beginning I was living 110% in the world.  I lived with a drug dealer.  When I became pregnant I still used drugs without a care for anything or anyone but myself.  When I was 6 mos. pregnant, still in street clothes, I didn’t know why, but found myself walking with only the clothes on my back to Teen Challenge.  I had nowhere else to go.  Knowing Teen Challenge was only for males, I was hoping they knew of a place I could go to.  They referred me to a newly-opened women’s christian home.  I was taken in and literally forced to go to see a doctor.  I don’t recall ever being so scared.  The doctor, after hearing my history, sent me for an emergency ultra sound.  I recall him saying - this baby will never be normal!  The ultra sound was ok.  I was put on prenatal vitamins and sent home, having to see the doctor once a week.  Three days after I got to this home a woman visited from an African missionary.  She talked with me for hours.  She prayed over my unborn child.  It was an amazing experience.  I knew my child would be ok.  I felt something take place inside of me (spiritually and physically).  Each week thereafter my baby grew to the exact cemtimeter.  The doctor was amazed.  I was amazed.  I gave birth to a healthy baby boy.  This happened as a direct intervention by my Lord, Jesus.  He healed me from drug addiction.  He healed my son from the addiction and harm I passed onto him in utero.  This is one of many experiences I have had and this is why I believe in God.
