I too had a
problem with cocaine and I know how hard it is to get off
of
and the damage and havoc it wreaks on a life. I came to a point where I
was
spending the night in an Apartment complex storage room smoking my last
little
bit of crack and feeling sooo alone and like a piece of human garbage.
I was
so depressed I couldn't stand myself, but all I kept
thinking
about was how can I get some money to buy more crack. Thank our
Lord
I did not resort to crime and after coming out of that storage room the
next
morning I vowed I would never touch the stuff again...
Jesus came
into my life and gave me a new resurrected soul because I
was
spiritually dead, just like Lazarus, and since that day I have no
desire
for the party life. I quit smoking cigarettes and I quit drinking. I
have
a strong desire to know God's Word and to serve him however I can and
to
not sin. The flesh lusts against the spirit and that will go on
till
I die or Jesus comes back as it will for all His people.

That night,
she

drugs.
On Thursday, he rededicated his life to Christ. He joined our outreach
team

I can still
remember, quite
clearly, the first time I ever smoked dope. I was 15 years old, and we
were
standing in the park, amongst some trees. There were about four of us
and
I was offered a smoke, which I willingly accepted. I was curious as to
what
it would do to me, which is why I tried it.
The next
time I smoked dope was in a friend's garage. I very quickly
began
buying about £5 - £10 of dope a week. I used to smoke it
just
at weekends, but somehow it gradually turned into every night.
I was 16
years old when I first tried LSD. Again, I was offered it by a
friend
and again I had no hesitation in saying 'Yes'. I wanted to find out
what
it would do to me, as I have always been curious about things in life.
I
took a second LSD tab later on that evening in a night club.
I continued
to use different kinds of LSD for a couple of years after
my
first experience, but it was never as powerful and strong as that first
time.
I did have some tremendous headaches after some trips and I did begin
to
wonder just what damage I had done to my brain.
I was 16
years old when I first tried speed (amphetamines). Again I was
introduced
to it through friends of mine. Speed is a white powder and I used to
sniff
it up my nose. There was a time in my life when I used to sniff speed
daily
and I used to smoke dope daily too, as well as drinking alcohol.
One of
these volunteers was a Christian who gave me a Bible. I began
reading
it and I came across some of Jesus' words saying he knew who he was,
where
he came from and where he was going to. I had no idea who I was or
where
I was going. In fact I wondered about all that immensely.
As I read
those words of Jesus, I knelt down and prayed that I would be
able
to know who I was and where I was going. Suddenly I knew that Jesus had
died
in my place and everything that I hated about myself, feeling dirty,
black,
and unclean, had been forgiven. I felt an invisible wave of holiness
and
cleanness flow through me. I cried and talked to Jesus about many
things
for what must have been some time. I had been born again. I felt like I
had
been given a fresh new start. I loved Jesus. I knew Jesus. He had won
my
heart forever. I wanted to read the Bible; I wanted go to church.
Suddenly
my life was turned upside down. I stopped taking drugs, I even stopped
drinking
alcohol for three years, although I drink occasionally now. I stopped
smoking
fags three months later.

On December
31,
1986, Lakey
went to a New Year's Eve party. There he 'free-based' cocaine. As the
evening
went on, he began to feel worse and worse. He felt as if his head was
going
to explode and his whole body was shutting down.
He didn't
tell his friends how bad he felt. He thought he was too
'cool'
to overdose. Quietly leaving the party, he headed for his apartment
downstairs.
By the time he got there, he was crawling on his hands and knees. He
crawled
into the shower, turned the cold water on himself, and prayed for the
first
time since he was eight years old.
"God if you
spare my life," he said, "I'll never take drugs again and
I'll do something to help humankind."
Feeling something swirling around his feet like a tornado, he looked
down,
and to his amazement saw seven glowing beings of light circling his
body.
The beings shone like the sun and looked like they were made of
crystal.
They came up to his chest and put their arms around him. Suddenly,
Lakey
felt at peace. He knew he had been saved by angels.
In this
near-death experience, Lakey was surrounded by seven angels,
saw
the light of God, and glimpsed the 'other side.' After he recovered, he
stopped
taking drugs cold turkey, began helping other people, and became
obsessed
with drawing what he had seen that night in his shower.
