October 14, 2009

By Mary Fairchild, About.com

Skeptics may debate the validity of Scripture or argue the existence of God, but no one can deny your personal experiences with him. When you tell your story of how God has worked a miracle in your life, or how he has blessed you, transformed you, lifted and encouraged you, perhaps even broken and healed you, no one can argue or debate it. You go beyond the realm of knowledge into the realm of relationship with God.

These steps are designed to help you write your Christian testimony. They apply for both long and short, written and spoken testimonies. Whether you are planning to write down your full, detailed testimony or preparing a quick 2-minute version of your testimony to share on a short-term mission trip, these tips and steps will help you tell others with sincerity, impact and clarity what God has done in your life.

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.

The Power of Surrender

In our day of civil liberties it is difficult for us to comprehend what it was like for people living in biblical times under the authority of a king.

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)
