When my parents were divorced, I was only 5 years old. I didn\u2019t know how to love and didn\u2019t know what love was all about. When I was 14 years old, I started taking drugs ( designer drugs). I was high on drugs, loved drinking, and did not how to love others. I often caused trouble to my family and friends.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When I was 19, I started to take ketamine ( a kind of designer drug) and was hooked on it for 5 years. It was like \u201c hell on earth\u201d for those years I was on drugs ! My health deteriorated. I had a very serious gastric problem, and I was bleeding too. I had urination problem and had to go to the loo very often. I lost hope, lost many friends and thought I was going to die.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">My mom took me to a christian drug rehab center called Rainbow Women\u2019s Home which I had to undergo one year\u2019s rehabilitation program. It was at the Home that I came to know a powerful person called Jesus\u00a0who gave me new life,\u00a0hope and joy. He was the One who healed my disease and gave me a healthy body. After I had graduated from Rainbow and 5 years later I felt called to serve God in a women\u2019s ministry in the church. I am thankful that I had experienced Jesus\u2019 love and am now able to love myself and others too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the past I \u00a0was in bondage to sin but now I thank God that I have Jesus to help and walk with me. He did not\u00a0forsake me, but gave\u00a0me new life. He will also give me the grace and strength to walk through every circumstances that I face in life. I hope this will encourage my friends (myself also) that if we commit our lives to Jesus, He will give\u00a0joy, peace and hope for the future. Let us come and learn more about Him. God bless you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>~ Nathalie Tan ~<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #035440;\"><em><span style=\"color: #008000;\">(Nathalie Tan was affectionately called \u00a0&#8216;Wah Looi&#8217; by her friends.
