My name is Ashley Higgins and I was blessed to have the opportunity to be a graduate of Damascus Home Women’s Center in August of 2013. I was raised in church most of my childhood and had recited a prayer at 16. After falling deep into addiction and desperate for help, through Divine appointment God lead me to Damascus.
After the first house meeting with Jim Cooley and some very convicting words, I realized I had Jesus in my head but not in my heart. May 31st was the day I gave him my heart! The next 3 months the Lord poured into my heart and soul. The more I searched, the more I found. I had an unquenchable thirst for God and He always gave me drink! I have found the Joy I searched for in the world, in the arms of my Jesus. I have found the Peace that surpasses all understanding in my Lord. I have found the Love I used to dream of in the stillness of His presence.
My life now is proof that when you give God the broken pieces, He makes beauty from ashes. I’m eternally grateful for this ministry and the impact they have had on my life!
