I was introduced to Jesus on July 15, 2001. I was baptized in November and I am becoming a member the Assemblies of God in Millville, New Jersey now. I was led by what I now know as the holy spirit.

In August of 1994 I sat on my bed and said, "God, I can't live like this any more."

Since then I have thanked God every day. God sent a person I did not even know to show me the way out of my drug addiction. He came to tell me to clean my yard or I would get a ticket from the city and he would not leave. It seemed like hours of him saying, "are you sure there is nothing else bothering you". My heart opened up and I admitted my crack addiction. I am seven years clean and one year sober on December 25, 2002. As you can see I relapsed in 1995 for a few months. Then I stayed in denial about the drinking until I met Jesus in 2001. I have had so much healing and I am still continuing to receive.I have started to pray for joy in my life because it doesn't seem like laughter comes easily to me.

My testimony is, when I was on my way to a sister church we stopped in a friends house. I saw the picture of Jesus laughing out of the corner of my eye. I had to stop and go back. I have never seen it but I knew in my heart that the image I had was not the only one. The image I have makes me cry of Jesus on the cross. The feelings of gratitude are immense. I am not sure how to describe it but it is like a bottle of joy has been opened. I can laugh with the lord now I can be there with him. I thank you for seeing and sharing this image that I so desperately needed to see. My soul is joyful.

I saw the picture on Saturday September 7, 2002 this is Monday September 9, 2002. If my computer at home was up and running I would have been on the site earlier to find this image again.

Thank you for the blessing Lord, and bless the ones you gave the gift to make it happen.
