Christian Testimony About Crack Cocaine Addiction – Trudy’s Hope is a Crack Cocaine Addiction Christian Testimony

October 12, 2009

My name is Trudy Betinger. I would like to let you know that there is hope for you. As long as you are breathing, there is hope in Jesus.I was saved seven months ago. For many years I was hopelessly addicted to crack cocaine. Before that I experienced various addictions throughout my 43 years of life.

However, with crack I hit my bottom.I had lost everything and most of all, I thought I had lost my soul. In fact, that was all I had left to offer God—to a God who I thought had created me to die all alone with nothing and no one.Bankrupt and Broken DownI went to three different rehab programs.

None of them worked until I went to a spiritually-based treatment center.

There, they showed me that God loved me and wanted the best for me, even though I thought all that existed in me was worthlessness and vile sin.They also told me that Jesus loved me and wanted to save me. I entered rehab bankrupt—financially, physically, and most of all, spiritually. I was broke and broken down. I felt like a burnt frame with holes for eyes.

There Jesus made it clear to me that there were two paths: the narrow road of salvation or Satan’s wide road of sin. He told me that I didn’t have to travel the wide road of sin any longer; He was there to save me. I saw him face to face and he hugged me. He took all my hurts away and placed me in his marvelous light.

May I encourage you to let him into your life? He will fill you with the Holy Spirit, like he did me. If you believe, you will be an anointed child of God. He will save you and set you free.Let Jesus give you hope, like he did me.

Addicts Are Aging

In 2005, 184,400 Americans who were admitted to drug treatment programs (roughly 10% of the total) were over 50 years old, up from 143,000, (8%) in '01.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration foresees 4.4 million older substance abusers by 2020 vs. 1.7 million in '01. The numbers are "likely to swamp the current system," says agency executive Deborah Trunzo. (New York Times 3/7/08)
