The prayer God Answered:
Many know me by Jerry, but what many don’t know is that I am a man of prayer. I remember very clearly; it was mid January 2025, I was in mid addiction. Sounds bad right, well let me be the first to say it was not, my life was pretty good so I thought. I had an ok job and a brand new car, but I was an addict. I was so tired of living that life style! So I would pray.
Many times I wanted to stop praying thinking God was’nt listening. But it’s almost like my faith would not let me stop. At the same time I knew I was in sin, and God was not pleased with my way of living. As I read once in Isaiah 59:1 Listen! the Lords arm is not to weak to save you, nor is his ear too deaf to hear you call. It’s safe to say God was listening; as the days would go by my derection would get worse, the loneliness would start to be unbearable . One final attemptto prayer I told myself, I don’t even know what to say it is 3am, i’m outside, freezing and safe to say Lost! the faith I had, the faith that I knew there had to be more to my life than this addiction. I didn’t know what to say so I said the only thing I could at the moment Jesus Jesus Jesus Jesus Jesus!!!! My heavenly Father loves me (us-You) so much that he knows exactly what we need. Not even a couple days later I ended up getting fired from my ok job, lost my car and most importantly I was losing my relationship with my family, but with God. I was like woah wait a minute please Lord help me, my life is getting worse every single day.
When I started questioning God one bible verse came to mind immediately John 13:7 Jesus replied; you do not understand now what I am doing but one day you will. That memory of those red letters changed my thoughts at once. I stopped questioning God and started saying yes and amen not only to God, but to my family as well.
Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see. Hebrews 11:1
