A man who shared a powerful testimony on TikTok gave many users hope that where there is a will there is a way, after he shared that he turned his life around after he battled a drug addiction for eight years.

From looking at the drug addicts and how it seems far to reach the stage where they are clean from drugs and start leading a normal life again, where they build success for themselves, this testimony proves that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

This man with a username @nkanyisolight shared his experience in a video where he highlighted his struggles, recovery and subsequently, his success. He left many in awe with this life changing testimony, while some shared similar experiences.

Sharing his testimony, Nkanyiso posted a picture of him while he was still struggling with the drug addiction, it can be seen from the picture that he had lost weight, his hair was unkept and he had red eyes. On the following picture he shared, the difference is visible, because he had gained weight and looked neat. He shared in the clip that he gives praise to God, because He shown him the light where he met his success through his graduation.

He quoted a bible verse from 1st Corinthians ” But thanks be to God, He gives us our victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Another one said: “Mina 15 years wonke but nga recover ( My addiction was 15-years but I recovered).”
