| Carrie's Testimony |
My Story.... I was a cutter,anorexic,bulimic, have dabbled in the occult, have been suicidal and attempted suicide many different times, I would actually sit and cry out to God to just let me die. I felt that no one loved me, no one wanted me, due to abuse and words that were spoken, I was broken and alone. I had my first daughter at the age of 15, and quit school. I have done any type of drug that was offered to me, and was an alcoholic. I've been on the streets, prostituted myself,stripped, been raped,used and abused physically,sexually and emotionally by family members and by other men in my life, including more than one family member.(I thank God that most of them are not part of the family anymore) but it wasn't the first time,nor the last. Men in my life then were all abusive and haters. Yet even though I hated men, I still got married at the age of 17, and had another daughter before I was 19. I have had four abortions and five miscarriages (most likely due to the scar tissue and damage I done to my body due to the abortions). I hated life, I hated myself and most of all I hated men. So I made men pay,I figured why let them take what they want, when I can get what I want.So I began to use men for what I wanted, money,control,alcohol what ever I wanted I used them for it. It didn't matter who they were, whether family members, so called friends,men in the bar, I used and manipulated them. I felt in control for the first time in my life. I couldn't of been further from the truth. I started viewing porn and my family was going downhill fast. My husband and I along with our two daughters moved to Port, figuring we'd move away from it all....but it continued. We both still drank, and were abusive to each other and I was still secretly prostituting myself as well. All the while our daughters seen it all.(other than the prostitution). The more people hurt me, the more I drank and my self esteem continued to dwindle. I was still doing drugs,cutting,prostitution,I couldn't handle life,and all the abuse that I had endured. I really only wanted to die. But God had other plans for my life. I rededicated my life to the Lord around 2003, but the partying didn't stop. I knew I was going to Heaven so who cares. Until one day I had enough. I knew there had to be more to life than what I was living, I was tired of living the lie, of hurting so much. I wanted to be loved and I realized at that moment I had to fully hand it all over to God, to surrender my life completely to Him. I couldn't keep using my past because it was destroying my future that GOD had planned for me....and for my family. I realized that only He could fill that void that had haunted me for so long. It has not been an easy road to travel,but God has been there for me, through it all giving me the strength I needed and still need to heal and forgive, not only those who hurt me, but also myself. It has also been since about 2004 since I last prostituted myself...or done drugs, or drank (thank you Jesus) He has taken the urge and addiction of smoking from me. I have been through biblical healing groups for the abortions,sexual abuse,and anger issues. He also gave me the strength and courage to go back to High School and I received my High School Diploma at the age of 30:) By the grace of God, my family and I are moving forward one day at a time. God has opened my heart and my life to serving Him. I was blessed to be with the youth/teen group at our church for the last 6 years until the Lord placed upon my life another passion and calling,He has placed upon my heart to start a street/strip club outreach/ministry called: Under the Influence of JC ministries in Niagara Falls, Hamilton and St. Catherines area and where ever else He wants me to go. (He can and will use your hurts for good, I know that is hard to believe but it is so true.) I am also honored to have women into my home Wednesdays for lunch,devotions,sharing and prayer. I feel so blessed that He chooses to use me and loves me, I just have to be willing and able:) I thank God for blessing me with my best friend Sherry, who has walked this path with me as well. And I pray everyday to hear God's voice not the voice of the one who seeks to kill and destroy me and my family. I am NOT perfect, but God picks me backup and dusts me off. And that is a good feeling...He will never leave me, or forsake me. God brought me through this because He has a bigger plan for my life. A much bigger plan than I can ever imagine. And HE has a plan for you as well. I am not saying that life is all peaches and cream...but my hope is found in Him...He is my rock,my Strength, my Shield. He protected me from death over and over again because HE LOVES ME, and He loves you the same way. Remember, you were worth dying for...that makes you very special...no matter where you've been, what you've done or still may be doing. Hold on and remember you are precious and loved.
JOHN 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son....
Psalm18:2 The Lord is my rock, my fortress,and my deliverer,my God, my mountain where I seek refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation,my stronghold.
Take care peace,hugs,prayers boldness and blessings Carrie Schmidt
