It amazed me that God loved me so much! He bought my
life back! He redeemed me, by sending His only son to die for my sins and transgressions.
The scriptures below
became my strength and power. They are some of the scriptures I memorized when I first received Christ as my Lord and Saviour.
His word (Bible) is why I am, who I am today!!!!
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son
that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
The thief does not
come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
John 10:10
I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.
John 8:12
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that may prove
what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Romans 12:2
There is therefore now no condemnation
to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
Romans 8:1
He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God.
Romans
4:20
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have
become new.
2 Corinthians 2:17
For though we walk after the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every
high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6
And we
know all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
Romans
8:28
Yet in all things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. Romans 8:37
What then shall
we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31

Choose Life or Choose Death-
Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is
the way of death.
Every life is made up of choices. For a great part of
my life I chose death. As you read you will understand and know when and why I chose life.
I was raped 3 times, at the age of 14, 15 & 16.
From the ages of
13-17yrs I was in and out of the juvenile detention center. I was locked up for various reasons; the most prominent were for
being incorrigible and a runaway. After a few times of being locked up I started too actually like it. Because at home I carried
the burden and responsibility of cooking and shopping while my mother would sleep during the day. Things started
to get worse and my mother couldn't handle me. The next step was to send me to my father's. While living with my Dad, I committed burglaries
under the influence of alcohol and when I got caught I was arrested for 9 counts of burglary. At this point I was on
probation in two different states and my Dad couldn’t handle me either.
I received a suspended sentence
to a prison for girls under the age 18. The day I turned 18, I immediately moved back
with my mother. It was just a matter of time when the drinking and partying started again. While working at a the
bank, a friend introduced me to a man, name Joe Conforte. The owner of The World Famous, Mustang Ranch Brothel.
The day came and I took over The Mustang Ranch buildings
#1 & #2, a multimillion dollar business at the age 29. I became the madam. I made excellent money, I had the power. Had
access to prominent people. I catered to stars, politicians and sports figures through the years.
I started to get harassed by a Federal agent. He would threaten me, for harboring a fugitive
and other charges.
My life started to change. I ran for Storey County Commissioner. I started to get harassed again by the gov't. There was a point
it got extremely out of hand. It had started to affect me mentally. I then started taking Elavil and Clonazepem for anxiety
attacks and PTSD. I then had a physical accident. With in a year, I had 3 discs rupture and started to drag my right
leg because of nerve damage. I labeled disabled and I lost my house, cars, diamonds and wealth. I tried to commit suicide
this being one of many times since the age of 19. This time I took a new prescription of 100mg Elavil, 50mg Clonezapem,
slit my wrist, drank, smoked pot, and did crystal meth. I ended up in a coma. The Dr. told my friend, if I woke up I would
be a vegetable but, he believed I would not come to. A week later I awoke.
