Synopsis

Long before I was afflicted by this dreadful disease, breast cancer, I had a wonderful childhood. I did not know that I grew up poor because I never defined myself through possessions. After graduating from college I married the love of my life, my college-mate. After a year and a half I found myself in situations that I did not want for my life. So, I left my home and flew to the land of prosperity and gold, well so I thought. I met my second husband in New York, where we got married and had four beautiful girls. During this marriage I've come to realized that marriage comes with trials, compromising and faith in God. I found myself, one would say, "Jumping from the frying pan into the fire." I had to dig deep within me, through sleepless nights, heartache, tears and God by my side I was able to withstand the outside influences that tangled my feet; that prickled my children and ripped my husband’s heart. Our trials in our marriage stood tall like Mount Everest. Through faith in God my family was able to overcome and now we chose to live not just survive and give God the glory! Romans 8:28 “and we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose’. It was during the time of seeking God because of my trials that I understood Him more. Life journey come with worries but if we focus on God explicitly He will take care of you because he cares. Thank God for being there with me through the thick and the thin. I was crushed but not broken. I was rejected but yet precious enough for Jesus to die for me. Breast cancer marked for death but Jesus gave me a second chance. Now, I endeavor to use that same knot in the bottom of my belly for over twenty years that prepared me for breast cancer, to use for the good of mankind. I chose to live, laugh, smile and stay happy while the storms of life pass through. Trouble will come but the way I chose to react, will determine the outcome. The waves of life that I can change, I will use them for the advancement of society and improvement of my relationship with God. Please rely on God with all your heart and soul and you will find that peace that passes all understanding. I would like to share with you, my readers my favorite bible scripture, the one that soothes my heart in my worse fear. Isaiah 41:10 so do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. I am writing this paragraph with a huge smile and happy heart because I have experience him for myself. Why not try him today

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

At the age of 22, I migrated from the Sunny Island of Jamaica to the USA for a better life. Without much family support here, life’s trials beat me down mentally, physically and spiritually. As a young mother and wife, my mind and body were fighting against all odds to protect my love, my children, and our future. As a teenager I thought peace was the absent of obstacles but during these unbearable time of my life I've come to the true meaning of peace. I found that true peace only comes from God. It is when I can ride out a storm with all its uneven waves and feeling safe in Jesus. John 14:27” Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you not what the world give out’. I come to understand what Thessalonians 5:18 said” be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus”. Through reaching out to the faith I knew all my life, I was able to find peace in the rough storm of my marriage. I was able to join force with my husband through our trials and found peace within the storm. I now have no regrets of my past because I am no longer a victim; I am a strong black victorious women because I am God's precious jewel. I was bought by His blood. His blood gives me victory over all Satan demons. I am unique, one of a kind. There is none like me in the past, at present and there will be none like me in the future. I have overcome breast cancer, I have gotten a second chance to life and I am running with it. I will forever proclaim the love of Jesus and sensitize women to be proactive with their health; knowing early treatment and early detection saves lives. I would not trade my family and the people I shared my life's journey with for a million dollars. The relationship with each person drew me closer to God. The challenging ones allow me to talk with God longer and more intense. The encouraging ones boost me to not take anyone for granted. All these relationships have made me into who I am; a child of the King. I am blessed beyond measures. For that I am thankful to God.
