Couple's story brings hopes

It was encouraging to hear how David and Angela Johnson's lives have turned around. It turns out I work with David. I thought I recognized him from the picture. He is a pleasure to work with.

It is only through prayer and belief we are given the opportunity to see God's provision through the most difficult circumstances. It is hard for the person who loves an addict or alcoholic to do this without unconditional love. I dated a man for four years who lost his home and his job because of his addictions. I kept believing and praying he would overcome them. His own family gave up on him. He also turned his life around.

I wish there was more they could do for people who own homes, who are trying to keep their homes.
