trigger warning from a very young age after a near death at around age 16 months. were i saw tunnel of light with what i call lighting beings as they was glowing. felt within it this great love that beyond  any thing here on earth. also heard a voice say My child it not your time yet. then was put back into my body. there a lot more to that but that was start of my  faith. i believe that was a big event in my life.

it looking back impacted  my life a lot. within trigger warning our abuse God  made us feel special  a lot of the time. even when family and others were very hurtful to us. we was only 3yr when we accepted  Jesus Christ and yes we could explain what He did for us. as within the church we was at the pastors question every one before one could be baptized.  at age 6yr dad left the church due to words spoken at a funeral  of a family member. this was by other believers and was nothing really bad he took it wrong way. he tried to keep mom and us kids from going after that. but we kelp asking and asking to go. a family lived close to us offered to take us to their church weekly. my grandma told dad she did not want her kids raised as heaterns  so he let us go to church. but by going we missed out of treats and got teased a lot by family members.

God became a big part of our life as we could talk to Him about everything. we was heard and even helped by God.   we acted out our faith read the bible from age 7yr and up. we even  would put bible under our pillow at night. for some reason it  gave us hope even in the darkest days. teen years youth group  and campest life became big part of our life.

this kelp us out of trouble too. also gave us safe place to be. we was able to go on outings with youth group. dad did not allow us to do like school dances and other things like staying overnight at other girls houses. but that was ok as we really did not have friends. even after we was married and hubby kelp us from going to church. he isolated  us a lot, just like dad did. but we still could talk to God.

think God imparted  every part of our life our faith has always helped us to stay hopeful even within the abuse.
