Murphy
Garrison, NY
Murphy’s father died in a car accident when she was only three years old.
As a result, Murphy was raised by a single mother most her life.
“I have a wonderful, loving mother who raised me to believe in God,” Murphy shares.
But sin doesn’t discriminate … and Murphy’s temptation to put her faith in men and drugs lured her into decades of drug abuse and prison time.
For more than twenty years, Murphy lived inside the vicious cycle of addiction, shame, regret, and abuse. There wasn’t any sign of turning her life around, until God literally met her in her pit of despair.
At 3 a.m. while at her drug dealer’s house, Murphy felt a pull from the Holy Spirit to leave her surroundings. Immediately, she looked up the phone number to Hoving Home, called, and did an intake then and there.
In God’s providence, Murphy entered our New York program. A couple weeks later, Murphy learned that her daughter was part of our New Jersey home.
“I didn’t know she was in the program,” Murphy shares in awe.
Since joining our program, Murphy has received Christ’s forgiveness and is amazed by the connection with her daughter.
“I didn’t believe reconciliation with my daughter was possible, and I know it will only get better,” Murphy shares.
Murphy has had time to deal with the demons of her past and learn how to move forward with God’s Word anchoring her decisions. She is in amazed at God’s kindness of helping her and her daughter know His love that surpasses knowledge. They are working through a season of healing and bask in God’s redeeming grace!
Murphy is a walking example of the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. When we are attuned to His guidance, He leads us in paths of righteousness and healing.
Praise God with us for the work HE has done in Murphy’s life!
