Saved from a Life of Drug Addiction and Occultism

When I was a kid I believed in God, but I didn´t understand the Bible. At the age of about eleven I turned away from this belief, to a world of drugs and partying. But nothing seemed to be able to fill the emptiness inside of me. Hence I decided that it would be better to have a short life with drugs, instead of a long life without them until I met George...

Saved and Set Free from Drugs and Occultism!

I also tried different drugs like ecstasy, speed, opium and later crack and heroin, and found these pleasurable, but they can’t be compared to psychedelic drugs. I discovered that during LSD trips, if I called out the name of a long-dead guru, I fell into a deeper and much more powerful trance. However, somehow I had opened a door that I couldn’t close anymore...  Read more

Saved from Evil Spirits and Drugs

At the age of 12 I was already drinking hard alcohol (rum), and one year later I started to smoke cannabis. This totally messed up my schoolwork, as I was smoking it almost every day. I ended up with a criminal record at 16, and without any education, I was homeless and always in trouble...  Read more

From Panhandling to Plenty

I was living a life of pure selfishness, taking advantage of everyone around me and using them for drugs or sex. Through my lifestyle I destroyed any hope of gaining a good job and fulfilling my many responsibilities, including being a mother to my son. I often lied and cheated, stole and played with many hearts to satisfy my desires...  Read more

Freed and Healed to Start Again

I experimented with various uppers (amphetamines), downers (tranquillisers), trips (L.S.D. and “magic mushrooms”), opium, and cocaine. I continued in this way for the next ten years, with cannabis as my first love. I did notice my short-term memory getting confused, and my speech and handwriting getting sloppy, but was convinced that I did not have a drug problem. One day a friend asked me if I had ever heard of Jesus Christ...  Read more

A feeling of paranoia had come into my life and had powerfully taken possession of my whole being. I knew that I couldn’t take any drugs any more as I was already close to insanity and further attempts of drug consumption had re-triggered symptoms of the horror trip of that night.  At one point I even thought about suicide, but I had this one hope, somehow I knew that Jesus could help me in all this...   Read more

As long as I was with my friends I thought what I was doing was okay. However, sometimes after coming home from a party in the early hours of the morning, really “stoned”, I looked into the mirror and asked myself, “Do I really know myself, do I really feel happy?” My honest answer was, “NO”. So I went to bed very quickly to try and forget everything...   Read more

Saved from Depression, Alcoholism and Suicidal Thoughts!!

I became more and more depressed, closing up and having nobody I could really talk to. Thoughts about suicide often came to mind including ideas about how to do it, fuelled somewhat through the influence of certain music groups and singers that I regularly listened to. The turning point of my life was to come during my duty in the army at the age of 20... Read more

Saved from a Life of Drugs!

Between the ages of 16 and 20 I simply took every drug I could get hold of: marijuana, speed, cocaine and LSD. I often took too much and did not know what reality was any more, or where the world of delusion and fantasy started. I often tried to get away from using drugs, but the people I mixed with, and the fear of facing reality, pulled me back into the drug scene. I saw no way out...  Read more

Joy Instead of Drugs!

I was smoking cannabis on a daily basis and if I had to go without, I suffered from stress and tension, becoming easily upset. I was also using other drugs such as speed, ecstasy, acid and magic mushrooms. My life reached an all time low...  Read more
