Summary

SummaryI was the church girl who never really knew Jesus. As an ICU nurse I sampled Dilaudid and tumbled into full-blown opioid and heroin addiction. I lost my licence, job, home and hopeβ€”until my niece’s warning and God’s relentless love brought me to a life-changing surrender. Through a sober house encounter Jesus broke every chain, restored my nursing licence, opened a tailor-made job, and led me to study counselling. Eight years clean, I live to proclaim: Jesus saves and still restores!

Follow Shiyla’s journey as she shares how making the wrong decisions as a registered nurse led her down a long road of addiction, loneliness, and hopelessness until she found Jesus Christ. #prisonersforchrist #jesussaves #christiantestimony #hopeinjesus #interview
