I was addicted to pain medication for 31 years, I would even buy them off the street and my stepfather would give them to me, I would feel guilty and hopeless when I ran out, went to a couple of rehabs , but they didn't help. I was at my wits end, I felt so guilty about going out to buy pills that I couldn't hardly live with myself, I wanted to die. I started listening to Jimmy Swaggart and he would preach the cross and Christ crucified, well as I listened more and more, I learned it wasn't by my own willpower that I would be set free, it was by trusting completely in what Christ did for me on the cross, he died to set me free and it took trusting in him and what he did to set me free.. So I let go of the guilt and the trying to do it myself and started trusting in Christ and him alone and he delivered me from a 31 year long addiction without horrible withdrawal. I'm free now thank God. If he can do it for me he can do it for others.
