April 13th will make it two years since I graduated from Mercy Ministries. What a journey that was! I went into Mercy a broken little girl trapped in a woman's body. I had a lot of hurt and pain to deal with. I was struggling with many internal battles. The enemy had held me captive for way too long. I have many amazing memories with the women I lived with and walked life with for many months but most importantly I truly found Jesus.
It was some of the hardest months I have endured digging deep into the hurts, but it also was some of the sweetest moments I have had. God took the brokenness and made it beautiful! I am grateful for my time I had at Mercy. I received so much freedom in God that I would have never found if it weren't for Mercy. God used Mercy to change the destructive path I was on to bring freedom so I can now live by Isaiah 61. To help set the captives free. We are all called to do this.
The two years of being home have not always been the easiest but I now had HOPE knowing that God would carry me through and not let me down! I have had many oral surgeries and another one to come. Talk about a faith walk in trusting God for healing! I have been able to go to Haiti and serve the hurting over there. Loved the country and the people in Haiti! I now have dreams that surpass all anything I could do but God can do it!! It all started at Mercy to give me another chance at life! I am forever grateful for those months!
Most of all its by the Grace of God I am who I am today. He has done so much and continues to do much. Its an exciting season I am entering. To be excited about life feels good!

This is how GOOD GOD IS!!!! The transformation that God can do in just two years! I am forever grateful for the freedom God has given me.
If you are struggling with any type of addictions or problem there is a God that can set you free.
"where the spirit of the Lord is there is FREEDOM"
There is NOTHING too big that God can't do!
