Alana's Story Continued...
I had to get to that place in my life that only God could get me out of and he knew just the place and the people to help Him reach me. I was willing to do whatever 5Rock had to offer and at the time I had no clue what that really was. I was looking for a safe and secure place but with that came an unconditional love.
I Couldn't Understand How Strangers Could Love Me
I couldn't understand how strangers could love me like they did but then again they didn't see me the way I saw me. They saw me as Christ did and Scott and Christy would tell me everyday the person I am in Christ and that I am not what or who the world told me I was. They believed in me as well and that made me want to change the way I saw myself. I wanted to change who I had become through years of addiction and toxic relationships. I wanted nothing more than to be a part of what 5Rock had to offer, because I knew that it was going to change my life forever. And it has.
My Life Will Never Be The Same
My life will never be the same. My children and I have a renewed relationship which was a miracle. They wanted nothing to do with me. It's taking a while. It didn't happen overnight but I took with me all that I could from my time at Rock and applied it to my life. God has blessed me beyond what I could have ever imagined and continues to. I can honestly say that I am not the person I once was because of 5Rock. Scott and Christy and the people I meet during my time there will always have a place in my heart because it was there that I found God and the meaning of family.
