Lia's Story

Life Hi Guys , Don't know if you all remember me I attended OA in 1970 or something like that, old age ya know. My life has had it's ups and downs, mostly downs. December of 2005 I became reconnected with the Lord, and amazing things have been happening. I've since then returned to school to get my degree in Human Services, am on the Board of Directors for The Heading home Foundation. I work with the homeless, and speak at seminars for Mom's against Meth. The Lord is taking me on an awesome journey. He is my Pilot! TURNING 51: BY LIA CREES-ROOSEN ON AUGUST 27, 2008 I TURNED 51. THIRTY-TWO MONTHS AGO I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE WHERE I'M AT NOW. I WAS ON THE STREETS WITH A SERIOUS MONKEY ON MY BACK, I WAS A METH USER. I REMEMBER TELLING MY HUSBAND THAT WE WOULD NEVER HAVE A HOME THAT WE COULD JUST SIT AND WATCH T.V. IN, I WAS SURE I WOULD BE A JUNKIE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, WE WERE LOST AND HAD NO HOPE. ONE DAY WE WERE WALKING DOWN THE ROAD WITH EVERYTHING WE OWNED IN A SHOPPING CART, THREE DOGS AND NO WHERE TO GO. MY HUSBAND SAID A PRAYER, ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS LIGHT WAS SHINING FROM THE CLOUDS AND MY HUSBAND SAID WE SHOULD FOLLOW IT. WE WENT TO THE CHURCH WHERE IT SHONE DOWN ON BUT NO ONE WAS THERE. ALL DAY LONG WE FOLLOWED THAT LIGHT. AT ONE TIME IT LIT UP THIS BIG BLACK MARKER, WE PICKED IT UP A...Expand for more
ND PUT IT IN OUR BAG AND KEPT GOING. IT WAS FINALLY DARK , FRUSTRATED, COLD AND HUNGRY WE ENDED UP AT THE WAL-MART PARKING LOT. THERE WE USED THAT BLACK MARKER TO MAKE THE INFAMOUS SIGN "HOMELESS PLEASE HELP" WE MADE A FEW DOLLARS AND DECIDED TO SEE IF WE COULD FIND SHELTER. WE NOTICED A LINE OF CARS AND FOLLOWED THEM TO A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT SHOW AT PARKWAY CHRISTIAN CENTER. WE STOPPED AT A BIBLE VERSE THAT READ " I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. WHOEVER FOLLOWS ME WILL NEVER WALK IN DARKNESS BUT WILL HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE" JOHN 8;12. A WOMAN PRAYED FOR US, WE HAD FOUND THE LIGHT! THE BLACK MARKER WE USED TO HELP US MAKE A SIGN THAT MY HUSBAND MADE TO STAND ON A CORNER EVERYDAY TO COLLECT ENOUGH MONEY TO STAY AT THE MOTEL 6, WHILE I DID MY WORK CREW AND THEN ENTERED A TREATMENT FACILITY. HE DID THIS FOR ALMOST A MONTH AND A HALF. FOR ONCE IN OUR LIVES WE DID EVERYTHING WE WERE SUPPOSED TO AND SOON HAD A HOME. WE HITCHIKED TO SCHOOL AND WORK FOR ALMOST A YEAR. GOD SAVED OUR LIVES! WE NOW HAVE A HOME, A CAR, MY HUSBAND HAS A GREAT JOB, I GRADUATED ROGUE COMMUNITY COLLEGE AND AM WORKING AS A DRUG AND ALCOHOL COUNSELOR. THE REASON I'M POSTING THIS IS TO REMIND MY SELF WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE IN MY LIFE AND HOW GRATEFUL I AM TO BE FIFTY-ONE, ALIVE AND HEALTHY. "I WAS ONCE LOST BUT NOW AM FOUND" THANK-YOU JESUS
