Collage and Poetry

Hello! My name is Michael Robertson. I am a recovering addict. I've been through many drug rehab programs. Some of the programs I conned my way through. Some I did what was required of me. And in some I rebelled against the treatment techniques. But I made it through to graduate. Out of all of the drug rehab programs I participated in, the programs that were basically religious were the ones I took seriously. "Why?" Because I was raised as a child to know and fear God! And during my drug-using days, when I really wanted to quit, I tried every 12-step-attack-therapy-in patient-out-patient method available to me. And it didn't work. But when I let God into my life, when I studied the Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth book (Bible), my life really began to change. When I look back at my past life, I had to have had angels protecting me because I should have--or could have--been killed many times. But God spared my life, and I'm very grateful. If there's any way I can help another recovering addict to maintain his or her sobriety with "Jesus included," I will. (It works for me.)

Spiritually yours, Michael Robertson

"Angels in the Hood"

We all have guardian angels. Put here BY GOD, their job is to protect us. Protect us from ourselves, and from life-threatening situations that we get mixed up in. But! guardian angels are not supposed to let you see them. However, sometimes, accidents do happen. And you might catch a quick glimp of an angel! If so, consider yourself lucky. You've just witnessed a rare heavenly site! Also, guardian angels are usually someone who has passed on from this life to the next life.

Someone like your mother-father-sister-brother husband-wife-aunt-uncle-cousin nephew-niece-son-daughter boyfriend-girlfriend-loved one Guardian angels are always watching over you. They never sleep and they will love you forever and ever and ever. If you don't love yourself, guardian angels have enough love for the both of you.
