My Testimony Where to start. My name is Brooke Hicks, and I am twenty one years old. Back in the day, I had a family and we were: Mormon, Baptist, and practiced Wicca. My mom never had a true interest to get to know me as a daughter, and My Dad was basically my mom and dad. When we got into the Wicca everything fell to pieces. We had just built a beautiful home, New cars, my parents were the on the neighborhood committee, money was good.., ect. All of that stopped. My family was no more. My mom and dad became swingers and loved to party every weekend. Soon after, the got divorced. My mom won custody over me and my little brother. The first year with her was constant yelling, physical abuse and last but not least she kicked me out. This kept on happening until I turned around 15 or 16. I would go back and forth to each parents home until the day that she kicked me out for good. I wasn't a bad kid, I just wanted a mother's love that she couldn't or wouldn't give me. My Dad showed me love, but I never gave up on her. When she kicked me out for good, she made me marry my first boyfriend whom I only known for 9 months. I didn’t know who I was or what marriage was about. Partly she did it to hurt my father. He never walked me down the aisle. Anyways...I stayed married unhappily for almost 4 years. I got my own apartment and started living in the world BIG time. Drugs, selling, smoking myself, going out to the club, private dances, alcohol...ect. ect. I wasn't happy and I knew it. I went to see Roy fields in Powdersville SC. Basically felt Gods touch and love! The love God gives you can fill any void!!!! I had given my life COMPLEATELY to him. I even told him that I didn't want a man in my life... just him. I met the love of my life at the revival....I just didn’t know it until later on. I told God that he would have to tell me who the one for me was.. or else I wanted no part of it. God Finally spoke a month and a half into our new found friendship. We have been together ever since. God is amazing, wondrous, eternal love! That is enough to make me happy. God has even sent me money from unknown sources, brought to Nick ( my fiancé) a beautiful engagement ring, and shown us what he has in store for our lives!!! I know this is ONLY the beginning of great things to come. God is just waiting on us to receive him! The time for the Lord is now and forever!!!
Hi Brooke, I am also new to this site. I really feel that I can relate to your story in some ways. I'm so happy for you as you have come a long ways... I hope we can get to know each other better. GOD BLESS/TAKE CARE

Meaningful Life
If you’ve never asked the question
Who or when or why or how
Give your mind that great suggestion
Go ahead and do it now
You will find when you consider
All the options that abound
There is still but one conclusion
Where peace of mind is found
It’s not in education
In religion or in books
In retirement funds and IRAs
Or how the market looks
It’s not in status or in style
How low in golf you score
It’s not the running of a mile
Or who you’re working for
It’s not the price you pay for things
It’s not the jewels and fancy rings
It’s not the checks and credit cards
Secured by all those guns and guards
It’s not the beauty of your face
It’s not a matter of your face
It’s not the muscle on your bones
Your classy looks or great skin tones
What matters most in life today
Is where you stand along the way
Not what you have but what you are
How faith in God succeeds by far
God is the answer to the question
Of the who, when, why or how
And He gives the invitation:
‘TRUST IN ME AND DO IT NOW’’
You’ll find God meets your deepest need
With His kind words your soul He’ll feed
He guide your steps and makes things right
He’ll turn darkness into light…..
