incredible night
God gave me a gift tonight. we went to the addictions confrence at church tonight. i expected it to be a yawn- but went willingly hoping that charles could meet some more folks from the kinship we're at... basically- id didn't want to be there at all.

but i met up with my first best friend who was also at the confrence. we did a lot of illegal activity while friends.

she is seven days clean. she's been in over a dozen treatment programs, recently moved into her first apartment after being on the street for three years and has fought a vicious heroin addiction for over five years.

i'm so happy she's alive. so touched that God would make our paths cross. so glad that i went to the confrence i didn't want to goto. so grateful that i'm reminded that i can never allow jesus to be a hobby. i am glad for moments of clarity that allow me to see that my faith life was not simply life and death at the moment of conversion. my life depends on Him.
