... When I Tried to Quit Smoking

sylviaSylvia's Story: I was a church-going Anglican for many years; I was also a heavy smoker. Because of this I went to a therapist, to get help giving up. He asked what my interest were and I mentioned that my church activites were important to me. He told me he was a Christian and asked if I knew Jesus. I said, yes, I know He is the Son of God, but he persisted in asking did I KNOW Him, and I knew I didn't, not in the way my therapist was describing. He asked me if I wanted to really know Jesus; I replied "yes", and my journey of discovery began. A few weeks further on, and although I had cut down on smoking I had not given up - and then God healed me: he took away all craving and desire for cigerettes and I didn't suffer any withdrawl symptoms. I never smoked again - when God does something it is completely dealt with. I was 58 years old when I came into a living relationship with the Lord. You are never too old!
