From Dusty For many years I was an addict. Addicted first to cigarettes, then booze, women, fast times, and then Meth and Cocaine. My life was out of control. Common story, right? I was just one in the crowd whose life was worthless. I was arrested in October of 1998 and faced a life sentence without parole for my crimes. Everyone had given up hope when the jury came back with a guilty verdict. I had given up hope,too. I spent a lot of time just thinking what it was going to be like to do life in prison and never see freedom again. I decided that I wasn't going to do that much time for any one, so I planned my own death. I lived for drugs so I was going to to die with them too. I knew that there were a lot of drugs in prison and I was going to buy all I could and do them all at once and slip out of this life into who knows what... It was then that God put a question down in my spirit. It was this,"You have given the world and everything in it every chance to make you happy and it has always left you lacking. When are you going to give Me the same chance?" I fell on my face that night in county jail and told God that if He could give me the thing I had been looking for all of my life, the thing that had brought me to this place, I would serve Him as I had served all of those things that had never satisfied. God saved me that night, and His peace rested on me in a way that I had never known before. I somehow knew that it would be all right even though it looked so bad. Many things happened after that that I don't have space to write, but God worked it out. I got ten years in Federal Prison as opposed to life. I did six years after God blessed me with a year off drug program. I got in the Word and I now have this ministry reaching out to the addicted and the families of the addicted through music, drama, food, recovery groups, prison ministries, freedom from meth rallies, biker events, and youth ministries. God has moved mountains in my life and has hooked me up with the sold out men and women I need to make all of this work. God has done exceedingly and abundantly above all I could dream, and I know that He is just getting started!! I pray that you are blessed by this website, and that you take advantage of the ministries we offer. We hope to hear from you! Dusty- |
