After three years of homelessness, where she washed clothes in a creek and never knew when her next meal would come, Kristy\u2019s faith and commitment to God gave her the strength to begin her journey toward lasting sobriety.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Kristy, the youngest of three, was introduced to alcohol at just five years old. Her parents, both addicts, played a large role in her trauma. At six, she was assaulted by an older brother, and her parents blamed her, causing Kristy to carry the weight of guilt. By age ten, Kristy was already battling alcoholism and addiction to prescription pills. As her mother\u2019s struggles deepened, Kristy\u2019s own spiraled further. Kristy left home when she was 17. Shortly after, Kristy had a daughter and a year later a son. During both of her pregnancies, she turned to medication to cope, but both her children were born addicted, and she eventually had to sign over custody to her father. Abuse, charges, and hitting rock bottom led Kristy to rehab, where she began reading Genesis.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Although she had always known the Lord, Kristy struggled to understand His love for her. Even through relapses, she read the Bible daily. On her birthday in 2023, Kristy completed the Book of Revelations and felt God speak to her, telling her she no longer had to live that way. She found help at the Charlotte Rescue Mission and began Christ-centered treatment at Dove\u2019s Nest.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Her time at Dove\u2019s Nest was transformative. Kristy felt deeply supported and connected to other women on the same path. \u201cWhen women asked me to pray with them or help them grow in their faith, it deepened my love for the Lord,\u201d she says. Her Bible, beautifully worn, reflects her journey. \u201cI was exactly where I was meant to be,\u201d she shares, describing Dove\u2019s Nest as \u201camazing and anointed.\u201d<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>After four months, Kristy transitioned into the next phase of her recovery, and for the first time in years, she felt peace. No longer haunted by fear, she found comfort in the safety of her surroundings. \u201cI love being part of a sober community, and I\u2019m grateful for the simple joys, like having a place to wash my clothes,\u201d she says.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Kristy, who has always had a deep love for animals, found a true sense of fulfillment in her work as a dog trainer at a local pet store. This job has been more than just a source of income; it has been a lifeline that has helped her heal and cope with the trauma she has endured. Working with animals brings Kristy a sense of peace and joy that she never thought was possible after so many years of pain and struggle. It allows her to focus on something positive and rewarding, and in caring for the dogs, she has found a deeper sense of purpose and emotional stability.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Her hard work and dedication have not gone unnoticed, earning her the honor of Employee of the Month twice in less than six months, a reflection of her resilience and commitment. She gives God all the glory.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Kristy carries two notebooks and her Bible with her wherever she goes. One notebook is filled with poetry from her time in active addiction, capturing the raw emotions and struggles she faced. The other is a testament to her recovery, filled with love letters to Jesus as she documents her journey of healing and faith. Writing has been a powerful tool for Kristy, allowing her to process her experiences and reflect on how far she has come. \u201cMy hope isn\u2019t that many of you can relate to my story. But instead, see that God deserves all The Glory.\u201d she says, her heart overflowing with gratitude for the transformation in her life. Through her job, her faith, and her personal growth, Kristy is not only rebuilding her life but also finding healing in ways she never expected.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Today, Kristy is restoring relationships with her father and is joyfully involved in her children\u2019s lives. She faithfully pays child support for her 10-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son, excited to spend more time with them this summer. During a recent visit, she was able to buy both a Bible and a scripture coin, a gift that holds deep meaning for her. She says, \u201cThe Bible will set them up for the rest of their lives, and I hope the coin reminds them to go to God for anything.\u201d Kristy is filled with hope and gratitude as she watches her children grow, knowing that they are beginning their own spiritual journeys, and she is thrilled to be a part of that.<br class=\"html-br\" \/><br class=\"html-br\" \/>Looking to the future, Kristy dreams of working at Dove\u2019s Nest, where she can give back by serving the women who are just beginning their own recovery. She wants to be there for others, just as others were there for her, offering support and encouragement on their path to sobriety. \u201cDove\u2019s Nest is home\u201d, she says, and it truly is. Kristy finds joy in every moment, whether it\u2019s spending time with her family, pursuing her career, or simply enjoying the peace she has found after years of turmoil. She is profoundly thankful for the life she has today, and her heart overflows with gratitude for the grace that has brought her this far. Kristy\u2019s journey is one of redemption, love, and unwavering faith, and she can\u2019t wait to see where God leads her next.\u00a0<\/span>\n<div class=\"x1i10hfl xjbqb8w x1ejq31n x18oe1m7 x1sy0etr xstzfhl x972fbf x10w94by x1qhh985 x14e42zd x9f619 x1ypdohk xt0psk2 xe8uvvx xdj266r x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak xexx8yu xyri2b x18d9i69 x1c1uobl x16tdsg8 x1hl2dhg xggy1nq x1a2a7pz xkrqix3 x1sur9pj xzsf02u x1s688f\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\">See less<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x17zd0t2 x78zum5\">\n<div class=\"x3nfvp2\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"x3nfvp2\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"x1n2onr6\">\n<div class=\"x6s0dn4 xi81zsa x78zum5 x6prxxf x13a6bvl xvq8zen xdj266r xat24cr x1c1uobl xyri2b x1diwwjn xbmvrgn x10b6aqq x1yrsyyn\">\n<div class=\"x6s0dn4 x78zum5 x1iyjqo2 x6ikm8r x10wlt62\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"x1i10hfl xjbqb8w x1ejq31n x18oe1m7 x1sy0etr xstzfhl x972fbf x10w94by x1qhh985 x14e42zd x9f619 x1ypdohk xe8uvvx xdj266r x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak xexx8yu xyri2b x18d9i69 x1c1uobl x16tdsg8 x1hl2dhg xggy1nq x1fmog5m xu25z0z x140muxe xo1y3bh x1n2onr6 x87ps6o x1lku1pv x1a2a7pz x1heor9g xnl1qt8 x6ikm8r x10wlt62 x1vjfegm x1lliihq\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x9f619 x1ja2u2z x78zum5 x2lah0s x1n2onr6 x1qughib x1qjc9v5 xozqiw3 x1q0g3np x1ws5yxj xw01apr x4cne27 xifccgj x123j3cw xs9asl8\">\n<div class=\"x9f619 x1n2onr6 x1ja2u2z x78zum5 xdt5ytf x2lah0s x193iq5w xeuugli x1icxu4v x25sj25 x10b6aqq x1yrsyyn\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"x9f619 x1n2onr6 x1ja2u2z x78zum5 xdt5ytf x2lah0s x193iq5w xeuugli x1icxu4v x25sj25 x10b6aqq x1yrsyyn\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On April 4, 2024, Kristy found herself a Dove&#8217;s Nest.
