    About this ebook

    This book is all about the trials and tribulations one man goes through and gets to a point where I question how much more one person can go through. There is a saying, God does not give us more than we can handle. This gets pushed to the limit on how much is enough. It is only by the grace of God that I got through it. This book only contains half of my life, and I went through more in half my life than most people do in all of their life. I learned as time went on that it is faith that got me through, and you will learn that faith will get you through. Even when you think you cant go through any more, God will you get you through anything. You will read what God got me through.

    Terry Sublett

    This book is about one man’s life, the way he was brought into this world in a big family. If it was not for Jesus looking over him, things could have turned out a lot worse through all the drinking, driving, and physical and mental abuse. Thank God he is still here. Amen!

      CONTENTS

      Introduction

      Broken Home

      INTRODUCTION

      T he life I have lived I have trouble believing that I did live every bit of it, from a big family of ten to a year and a half in jail. My life started in 1962 and I have always had something going on in my life. This is to the very best I can remember it.

      I am from a large family and there was always something going on in it. Also alcohol problems He did not do beer too much. I went through a lot of hurt losing brothers and sisters. There was so much hurt with my parents and other people, my marriages, courts, jail, chasing life and love, 12 surgeries and at 50 years old I have decided to let everybody know what I have learned in these 50 years.

      People can learn many things by reading this book. I hope to help others so they do not have to go through the hurt and pain I did. All of what you are about to read is true, none of it is made up and all is the truth of what one man lived. I do not blame anyone for my life, not one person in my life had anything to do with the outcome, just me. I got everything I deserved. I lived what I was supposed to be learning. That was hard to do though when you live life in the fast lane.

      Things pass you by that Jesus puts in your life to teach us but we sometimes miss it. We are to live life slowly so we can enjoy everything Jesus puts in our lives to learn. When we live life so fast we miss a lot that Jesus wants us to see and learn and when we miss it we make wrong choices and that is where our lives start falling apart. When we miss His signs we choose what we think is right and that is why there are so many people hurt, lost, alone, divorced, jailed, etc. We do not slow down enough and stay in contact with Jesus and ask Him for help in our lives.

      We all know He will never lead us wrong and He will keep us from the hurt and pain from Satan but we must have faith and trust in Jesus to live life to the fullest. That is what Jesus wants for us. He has a plan for each and every one of us. When He sees us making wrong choices over and over again and not learning from our mistakes, and if He sees us do this enough or if He sees us headed into danger He will do things to get us back on track, whatever it takes. He lets us control our lives and make choices until He sees us
