At first it was cool, but then parents and relatives knew that I am drug addict and stopped to give me money and changed their opinion about me. I started to steal, then I went to prison. After getting free from the prison I've decided to change my life, I've moved to another city, found a new job and lived one year without drugs. Then I started to use heroin again, I lost my job, then it became worse and worse and worse. I was in couple hospitals for drug addicts. I realized that nothing would help me and I would never change. When they invited me to go to the believers’ rehab-center I thought that it didn't matter for me where to go and what for - I just wanted to give pause of me for my mom - so she could earn more money and I could spend them later. When I came to the rehab-center I didn't see any doctor there but common guys, ex-drug addicts, but with other life interests already. There I heard for the first time in my life that Jesus can change my life, but I didn't believe it. Only after being there for 3 months God touched my heart. He opened Himself for me - and I could understand how I can live now, because I can't live as I lived before and I have nothing to take to my new life with God. So - I've decided to listen to my heart - how it fills with good intentions. This is from God! So now I'm in ministry with drug addicts and street kids.

My
name is Anton. I was drug addict for 16 years. Addiction is a
way of life, which I tried at the age 12 for the first time. I tried
marijuana and since that time drugs are in my life. Being 18 I started
to inject heavy dugs.
