The Mind

Posted by Diane Perkins on Friday, June 26, 2009, In : In Retrospect 
I had never given thought to the power of my mind until I fought to come back from addiction.  God truly gave us a powerful instrument.  I guess I think of my mind as joined with my spirit because, with it, I am able to conquer anything that I need to.   I can rise above all the turmoil and my spirit soars high above the earth.  My mind had become my best friend...next to Jesus, of course, when I had my breakdown over a year ago.  I held on to God's Hand and my mind in order to come "back".  ...

With God, there was a beginning for knowing Him...but, there is no end.  God's love and mercy and forgiveness are eternal and everlasting.  His love has no beginning and has no end.  He has always been and will always be.  Who else can be that way?  Who else could ever love me with such unconditional love?  The answer is no one.  He is my Father and Jesus is my Savior.

Why His Way and not mine?

Posted by Diane Perkins on Monday, June 22, 2009, In : In Retrospect 
His ways are not necessarily our ways...so I've learned.  It takes much time and much prayer to come to this conclusion.  By "His", I mean God.  Everyone today wants to to it their way.  I guess it's a matter of self recognition and notoriety.  I thought along those lines for many years;  however, all of this brought me to my knees and to total brokenness...all of which I am grateful for and thankful.  God loved me enough to set me apart.  Now I live the life that HE wants me to live.  It has...

About Me


Di I have dedicated the balance of my life here on earth to a ministry in addiction. For me, it was prescription drug addiction which I nearly died from. I was one of the tiny minority who didn't die of this very curable disease. You can check the stats, but, most will die of addiction who suffer addiction of any type. My oldest daughter nearly lost her life also because she watched me. I have to live with that. We were both blessed to receive the blessing of healing, however, and I consider us both victorious in the battle against drugs. My focus here is on addiction and healing by Jesus our Messiah. He heals...forever...permanently. If I can be of any help whatsoever to any of you out there who read this, please write to me...this is why I'm alive. God bless you all.
