About Me |
|
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36 I grew up in Jacksonville, Florida and lived there most of my life. When I was in my early 20's I decided, spur of the moment, to move across the country to San Diego, CA. From there I moved to Las Vegas and then to where I reside today in Los Angeles. I decided to give my life to the Lord again (I was saved at age 11) in August of 2006 and left the pornography world on October 6, 2006. It has been a year since that decision and certainly not easy to get by. God has definitely blessed me for it though and supplied all of my needs in various different ways. My goal is to use the old broken life to reach out to others. There are so many people who are hurting and in pain and don't see a way out. Even as I go through my own recovery, there are times when I can't see myself but I know with God by my side I can do all things for when I am weak, He is strong! I am currently serving with Treasures, which is a non-profit that goes into strip clubs and brings gift bags with little goodies in it for the girls and a little card letting them know that they are LOVED. If it weren't for people reminding me that God loved me while I was in pornography I would still be involved so I see this mission as being an amazing opportunity to share HIS love with others who may have never even heard. A lot of these women's lives are much like my own - sexual abuse, physical abuse, broken families, and drugs. I know I would do or try anything to fill that empty spot in my heart. I have been working one-on-one for the last 10 months with Harmony Dust, who is the founder of Treasures and my mentor. She has been a blessing to me. She and the rest of the volunteers are a solid team of women with a great love for God. They all have a passion to reach out to these women and love them. Please take time to view the video below and visit Treasures to learn how you can also get involved. Treasures is a non-profit and works solely from donations of all kinds from monetary to gifts for the gift bags. They also organize fund raisers throughout the year. It is my personal desire for Treasures to grow to a point of having the resources to reach out to the porn industry, prostitutes, and abused women. I AM NOT HERE TO JUDGE ANYONE ONLY TO SHARE MY STORY WITH THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO READ IT.
