My name is Angel Montelongo. Before coming to Christ, I was a very lost individual. Although I didn’t know it at the time. I had issues with cocaine addiction and anger. My Mother left me with my grandparents at a very young age and went to California. I chose material things over love, which was all she could give me at the time. I grew up with anger towards her. This would play out in my relationships and friendships with others. I was a very manipulative person who was always looking to get my way in everything. I spent years on probation and in and out of jail as a result of my drug habit and violent ways. I would get desperate and even try to manipulate God by making deals with Him. I would pray and tell Him that if He got me out of my situation I would serve Him. Well, God did come through but once I was out of my predicament, I would go right back to what I was doing. I tried the church thing for about 2 years but eventually went back to my old ways. I was blessed with the 3 children but not even their births could change me. I was still drinking and smoking
