There was a time in my life when I felt like my body and spirit were breaking down. I struggled with alcoholism and homosexuality, and over time, I developed Hashimoto’s disease—an autoimmune condition where my body began attacking itself. I felt trapped in patterns that left me feeling empty and disconnected from who I truly was.
From a very young age, I carried burdens I didn’t fully understand. But everything began to change during a drive to Utah, where I was headed for nursing school. In that quiet moment on the road, I experienced something powerful—a sense of conviction and clarity that I now know was deliverance. A few weeks later, while studying at my desk, I heard the most peaceful voice say, “You either choose Me or you don’t choose Me at all.” I knew in my heart it was God speaking to me.
In that moment, I made my choice. I chose Him.
From then on, everything shifted. The desires and struggles that once consumed me were replaced with a deep sense of fulfillment. I no longer felt the same attractions or longings—I was filled with a love and peace that only God could give. The love I had searched for my whole life, I found in Him. And He gave me even more than I ever imagined.
God saved me—not just from illness, but from a life that felt disconnected from His presence. He restored my body, my mind, and my spirit. And today, I walk in freedom, knowing that His love is enough.
