I spent the early part of my life in foster care because my mother was an addict. By the time I was 15 my family was homeless. I was shot during a bad drug deal at 18 and lost my leg; my brother died 10 day's later of a drug overdose. I spend a year in the hospital alone, with only my girlfriend visiting. When I came home I was on a mission to destroy my life. I lived homeless on the street for the next few years. In 2007 I was sentenced to a year in jail and served 4 months. I was released on probation which forced me to attend meetings. That was the best thing that ever happened to me. I have since become very active in NA. I now look forward to each take and take life "One Day at a Time". I still have a lot to learn but feel I have found a new way of life and a great group of people. I learn a little each day and feel a little better every day.
Lord God, thank You for loving me Even when I turn away from You. I am grateful for Your constant care and concern. Though I feel unworthy of Your great love, I thank You that through my weakness You give me strength, And in my wandering You show me the way
