This Is my Testimony of what God did in my life 20 years ago on Feb. 7th 1988 I was living in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. at the time in a very nice condo near the beach had all the money a girl would need (so the greed gospel would have never worked for me) I had friends, nice car and a drug addiction. I became suicidal when I realized I could not stop. After two attempts of suicide with a pistol, I realized I couldn't do it that way... So I planned my death by overdose very minutely down to the last moments I would spend with my son. I told my little boy he would have a better life and his grandma would take very good care of him but I could not and I had to go away. He looked at me with his big eyes and said mommy please dont go and I refused his cry and told him I had to. That night I planned to overdose but God had other plans... I just didnt know it at the time. I remembered I needed to show my little boy how to say his bedtime prayers , you've probably heard it Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord My soul to keep...you know the one etc. well God had already began to deal with me. I tucked him into bed and went into the living room and preceeded with my plan. I was not a needle user nor did I smoke it so this was going to take some doing...but yes about 2am Feb7 1988 My life had to stop! I began to feel my life slipping away as I leaned back on to the couch. I could feel the presence of fear and death come into that room the room became PITCH BLACK and I could literally feel death on the left side of me pulling me down and I began to hear the Horrific laughs of (I didnt know at the time) demon spirits and they were saying we've got you now! I looked up and all I could remember was OH GOD help me My mom was a christian and I knew as a child she had said something about Not to commit suicide! Hell was real... I had become atheist over a period of years, long story...anyway I began to cry out to God in those short moments to let me live. I was sorry I couldnt live or be like my mom but please dont let me die and go to hell!! WELL He heard me!!! I'm not sure what happened but I was back in my living room and there was light. I wandered how I ended up hanging off the end of the couch but anyway, I sat up and turned on the Tv and I could still sence something wasnt right I thought well maybe I dreamt this and I reached for the remote thinking I have no hope I cant even kill myself right & LO and behold There was a man on that channel (Jimmy Swaggart) preaching in a foreign country and I saw this precious lady with her hands raised and crying and I thought that is me...and then Bro. Swaggart spoke right to me and pointed his finger and said GOD is able to set you free from drugs and give you a new life He alone is able Believe this prayer in your heart and you will be saved and I said the prayer several times beleving Jesus died for me and rose from the dead that I may go free! AND I GOT SAVED and Delivered right there the old Marsha died and the new Marsha was born again! Thank you LORD He did it for me and He will do it for you. My moms prayers were answered that night. The day before she had been calling churches all over the place to pray for me but her special prayer she asked for....was Keep my daughter in the shelter of your arms God and That very night first time in awhile I had slept I fell asleep literally in Gods Arm I saw it! He rocked me to sleep that night My LIFE HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME..The Very Next Morning I woke up...:), Called my Mom who lived in Oklahoma and told her The Wonderful News, and boy did She Shout! :) Then I got dressed, got my son dressed Grabbed My Bible and Out The door I went to Tell The Awesome News To Some of My Drug Doing Friends :) Needless to say They Thought I had Flipped Out! lol But, I Told Them, What Happened and They Knew something had happened :) He whom The Son Sets Free Is Free Indeed!
