After a psychotic episode induced from drug and alcohol addiction/abuse/withdrawal, I found myself in a bottomless pit whence I extended my hand to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ begging for help, guidance, forgiveness and liberation from my former life of vice and sin; I humbly asked God for a second chance so that I could do good into this world and help my mother and my family back in Brazil, and to spread his message of faith and love. God guided me out of the valley of shadow of death and today he showed me Jesus's ultimate act of sacrifice and how much he loved me.

God bless you all and remember to charish life, God's gift.
