IN HER OWN WORDS

"When you finish reading this book, I want you to understand that nothing you can get involved in would eliminate God's plan for your life. It may delay it, but it is not denied. God has a plan for you." - Pastor Nathaniel L. Green, Sr.

This is not a tell-all book about my life but a testimony of God's faithfulness throughout my life. This practical guide is a clear roadmap to overcoming life's challenges when:

·Accepting your identity
·Navigating through grief
·Colliding with purpose

May this book help you feel heard, seen, and understood. May my words and the Word of God shared in this book grant you clarity and, most of all, peace.
