Welcome to my blog!
As my profile states, I published my first book in 2008. It still blows my mind to know that there is an actual book out there with my name on it. This whole experience has been amazing and this is just the beginning.
Last week, I had my first ever book signing and let me tell you, it was awesome. The whole event, from start to finish was great. I met so many people who said they were either in the process of or about to start writing their own book. I believe there are so many people out there who have gifts, but are afraid to put themselves out there. I know what that is like. It took a long time and a lot of work to get my book published. Not because the actual writing and publishing process was so hard, but because God had to work out a few things in me. I was so bound by my own thoughts that I couldn’t see the future God had planned for me.
God had to show me who I was in Him—not who I thought I was, but who He knew I could be. I had to learn to trust Him and to believe in the possibilities. And although I dreamed of this moment many times, I was too afraid to believe it would ever happen and yet here I am—a published author. How awesome is that!
Here is an excerpt from Let My Life Be A Testimony:
Your testimony is a witness to God’s goodness, because even in the smallest of things, there is a lesson. Those lessons are how we grow, and if there is anything you can do to help someone else it is your responsibility to do it. God blesses us to be a blessing. The greatest gift you can give someone is to share your knowledge or your gift. It is such an awesome feeling to live fully in your purpose. It changes everything. Your life takes on a whole new meaning when you know who you are in God, and when you truly believe His Word it gives you power. That’s the same kind of feeling you get when you give a testimony. It’s a cleansing—a refreshing. It feels good to know that what you’ve done will help someone. It also helps you. Many times a testimony relieves or releases you from things that have had you bound. It brings those things to light so that they no longer have control over you. You have freedom, many times for the first time…
My prayer is that God will continue to bless your efforts and that you will also realize your dream. I look forward to hearing about your experiences. Let your life be a testimony.
Be Blessed!
