Now to start... just over a year ago I was struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. I began using drugs and alcohol when I was 16... I just turned 23 last month. I was addicted to drugs for nearly 5 years... my vices were alcohol Marijuana and Opiates (any Opiates mainly heroin in the end) During this five years of drug abuse I felt trapped... there was always something inside of me that felt what I was doing was wrong... keep in mind I was raised in an extremely Christian family with 4 sisters (in the only boy) who are all extremely active in church. Near the end of my 5 year binge I started to really get sick of the scene I was in and at one point I resented the fact I felt bad for what I was doing.... now I realize it’s what saved my life... I began to pray to god that I would somehow find my way out of the mess I was in... I was using some drug or substance everyday no matter what.... on top of that smoking a pack and a half a day of ciggys... My desire to do well in my life grew but I could not change my habits... I had gone door to door selling alarms the year before and had done very well and was planning on going out again the upcoming summer ... so during February 2011 I had a major decision in my life to make....the year before the sales office I went out with frequently participated in drug and alcohol abuse going to the bar, finding cocaine, smoking weed etc... So I knew that I wanted to be done with that life... and I had done very well the year before so there were multiple different sales managers trying to pressure me into going out with them..... Well I took a trip to Florida to sell for 10 days... funded by my last year’s manager.... During that time out in Florida with his team... I felt very alone.... I was using drugs still and I had a dream that changed my life forever.... in this dream I was lead into a party in a house by a girl who I had never met... she lead me past the regular party into a back room where only a few people were.... now these people were doing something bad like doing a drug deal or something... you could just tell they were making a shady deal... I sat down on the couch and didn’t care or pay them any attention being that I was used to being around things like that.... then one of these men walked over to me and put a shotgun in my face and said "you can’t be here" and I was like Okay dude chill I will leave... so I got up and walked back into the main room where the party was and most everyone had cleared out... he then pointed a pistol at me and said "If you do not get out... we will kill you"... he then put the pistol down and walked out... I picked up the gun and pulled the slide back and saw that there was ONE SHOT.... which later became symbolic to me that I was at a turning point in my life and I had one chance to get out.... at this point I feel that I was not fully succumbing to the powers of satin and god gave me this dream to tell me that satin would rather have me dead then interacting with other people he was trying to bring down... so I made the decision to go into a different sales office that summer with people I knew did not party... if I had gone out with the other office I know in my heart I would be dead. when I had this dream... it would not leave my mind and it was unlike any dream I had had before... it was so real... and not cloudy and hard to remember like most dreams are.... now about a week after that I had another dream but I cannot remember this one... but the impression I got at the time from this dream was that if I did not get my girlfriend (now my wife) out of that life that she could also be killed.... so after I got back home I made the decision to be DONE WITH EVERYTHING... I quit smoking weed drinking opiates and cigarettes all cold turkey... within a week.... my girlfriend who had also rebelled but raised Christian followed me and said she would stop everything also.... so we did it we stopped.... a week later I asked her to marry me... because I knew she was the one after she made that commitment to me.... two weeks after that we found out she was pregnant.... and a month later on April 5th 2011 we were married... My life has never been better

Thank you all so much for your replies -
Lately i have struggled somewhat... I dont know how to feel and please dont judge me. I just got sealed to my wife back in April after 1 year of marriage... It was one of the best things in the world!!! Whats been bothering me is that every other christian religion believes Christ is our God.. but we do not?? We believe god the father is our god right??? So at times i have felt guilty even in my prayers for not giving enough recognition to Christ for what he did for me... He died for my sins but am i supposed to thank god the father for that? I thank god the father in my prayers for the attonement and the sacrifice Christ made for me. But somehow i feel that this attonement doesnt recieve enough of my focus because i pray to god the father not jesus christ.... why am i feeling this way.??? is this wrong??? what do i do?? please any thoughts? Has anyone else ever felt this way?
