MONDAY GRATEFUL POST

Good Monday Morning Everyone,

Since this is Thanksgiving week....I think that we should say what we are grateful for in our lives this week.    The number one thing this morning that I am grateful for is a program called Teen Challenge ( this program is world wide ).   It is a Christian Discipleship program for addicts.   You know....we are food addicts and I am not sure if they have food addicts there but they work with men, woman and teens who have addictions to drugs, alcohol and porn/sex addicts.    I have a son who is almost 27 that we adopted from birth whose birth parents were drug addicts.    My son became addicted to drugs at 11 and we had no idea how bad it had gotten till he came to us 16 months ago and told us that he had been a IV heron user for 6 yrs or more and he wanted to stop and change his life.   He entered into Teen Challenge a month later and has now been clean for 15 months of his addiction and he has NO desire for drugs now.    I thank God everyday for this amazing program which has about a 90% success rate.    I still go to the Teen Challenge chapel meetings at one of the Teen Challenges that he was at every week and take cookies and goodies to those precious men every week.   If you know someone struggling with a addiction and need help.....Let me suggest TC for them.    It is one amazing program that returned my son to me a new person.    I am Thankful for God and Teen Challenge and the work that they do today.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
