About Me:
I love Jesus! I love all things Jesus! God has turned me into a writer; considering I never wrote anything that was published before! My first book was just published! It's titled, " A BLESSING IN THE STORM...Muscular Dystrophy messed up my life and made me whole." It's my memoir of how I've been radically changed into a woman of God, and BTW... I have a rare muscle disease that God is daily helping me deal with. My blog, PERSEVERE is all about how I am running the race of faith in the midst of this muscle disease...check it out!

"A BLESSING IN THE STORM...Muscular Dystrophy messed up my life and made me whole." Volume One

Everybody has a story. This is mine. Everything in my world seemed to be going great. It seemed as though the world was at my feet. But there was a merciless invader called Muscular Dystrophy that suddenly took over my life. I initially thought God had forgotten about me, or I thought maybe he was punishing me for the bad things I had done in my life? But I came to realize that what I viewed as a crisis...has actually been a catalyst for an encounter with the Living God... And my life now is a much better place!
This book is a memoir of radical change. You will learn all about the hopeless broken girl I used to be. It's out of that brokenness you will meet the woman I was destined to become. It's a story about learning how to make lemonade out of life's lemons. So take a journey with me and discover hope!

What a Revelation!!!

Hi. What a revelation I’ve had! I’ve shared it with a few close friends, but I’d like to now share this with you…

A week or two ago, I had told you about knee braces (knee cages) that were prescribed to help me extend my knees back…I won’t get into the boring mechanics of why because it’s long story. When I got them originally, I hated them (I wrote all about it in “Storms…”). Well my friends, it seems as though things have turned arou… Continue

A Teary-eyed Book Review

My heart is filled with so much joy!!! Over this weekend my friend, Lauralee at Selah ~ Pause. Ponder. Praise. read my ebook, and just wrote a review that left me in tears! Tears, because the words she used to explain my book is the message I (or should I say...I under the inspiration of our God) was trying to communicate. My memoir is not so much about having Muscular Dystrophy - it simply was the… Continue
