My Pain is My Power


Book Description

This book is written from my heart. My life changed before it began at the age of 5 or 6 years old when I was raped by a friend of the family, and I wasn't believed. This caused me to go into a shell and lose my inner voice. I was instantly overtaken with fear of what had happened to me. The damage done to me caused me to have to relearn how to walk. I continued to experience pain from an early age before I could enjoy life. This book allows me the opportunity to talk to you about being taken away from my mother and being separated from my siblings; how I endured so much pain, shame, fear, self-doubt, and a lot of confusion; dreaming of being that little girl growing up playing with Barbie dolls and one day being a model, and how that didn't happen for me. I endured so much pain from my childhood to my adulthood. I pray my book reaches every person who is reading it and it touches you like it has touched me. I can now speak and share my story about all the pain that I endured as a child on up into my adulthood. I could not have done any of this without God. I prayed and asked God to heal me, and He did. I lost my inner voice at the age of 5 years old. I found my inner voice at the age of 32 years old. I endured so much pain for 27 years. God delivered me from my pain on September 4, 2020. I found God. My Pain is My Power. I am using my voice to help and empower so many women and children like myself. I pray that you all be well and blessed and that my book touched you. God uses His weakest people and molds us into becoming His strongest people. Even though Fear was instilled in me as a child, I choose Faith over Fear. I survived and came out the other side.

Feeling Your Pain


Book Description

James Bovard is no fan of Big Government in the US and under the Clinton-Gore administration. In his new book, Bovard looks at Clinton and Gore's record on such abuses and absurdities as taxes, gun control, the Waco fiasco, AmeriCorps, and federal funding of every program from those dealing with disaster relief to those that put on puppet shows in Northern California. He looks at Hillary Clinton's informal role in the government, as well as Newt Gingrich's poor stewardship of the Republican party in its quest for a leaner federal government. In the style that made Lost Rights a classic, Bovard takes us on a sentimental journey through the last eight years. It's a trip no one will want to miss.

What do I do when I feel like I'm drowning and can't breathe because it hurts so badly? What do I do when I feel like the only thing I can do is stay in bed for the rest of my life because of sadness? What do I do?" This book will remind you, as a Christian, to really understand how to truly be a Romans 8:28 Christian (and we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him).
