Through It All I'm Still Standing


Book Description

Through It All I’m Still Standing is a story about experiencing love, trials, tribulations, abuse, loss, strength, endurance, faith, triumphs, and deliverance. It’s about feeling like all hope is lost but remembering to have faith because there is a God that will cover you and see you through—remembering that he will make a way out of no way as long as you are patient and have faith. It might not be when you want it, but he is always on time. I share similar personal experiences of surviving several challenges, including marriage, divorce, cancer, loss of loved ones, and more. Through It All I’m Still Standing is a self-help book that aims to bring awareness to mental illnesses, such as depression, PTSD, anxiety, and narcissistic personality disorder. I also wanted to discuss the many forms of abuse that are sometimes minimized but are just as bad as any other form of abuse, such as emotional, verbal, and financial abuse. My hope is to help people in similar situations and their families to deal with the effects of the unfortunate phenomena. My goal is to banish the misconceptions of mental health and to overcome the stigma of it as well as seeking the help needed. This book is designed to give hope from the first sight, with the use of the yellow lotus flower on the book cover symbolizing personal growth. The yellow lotus is an analogy of how it grows in deep mud, far away from the sun, but eventually reaches the light and becomes the most beautiful flower ever. Never allow anyone to ever make you feel less than. Always know your worth and practice more self-love. Through It All I’m Still Standing, and you will too!

I'm Still Standing


Book Description

Every aspect of the chapters in this book shows the supremacy and the miracle-working power of the all-powerful God, who doesn't need the help of anyone to accomplish His plans for our lives. Therefore, this humbled servant depended totally on Him in accomplishing His plans for her life. She has encountered many challenges in life. Some were near-death experiences through the hand of spiritual wickedness and others which motivated her to place her entire trust and life in God totally. Others were doors shut in her face, failure, fear, and doubt; however, she's still trusting and holding to what she believes. She's still motivated, fully persuaded, and still standing on the Word that is in her heart. Her intension in this book is to encourage readers to remain steadfast and unmovable in their faith in God. No matter what storm or wind may blow their way or how hopeless circumstances may seem or the abundance of things that the devil throws against you, know that God is still in control, and you can always count on Christ as your only Beacon of hope. In the midst of your struggle, you must still stand, for the omnipotent (all-powerful), omniscient (all-knowing), and omnipresent (all-present) God has not given you a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. She has chosen this subject particularly because, like many believers, she has been knocked down several times, but not knocked out. We are still standing. She places emphasis on 1 Corinthians 4:8-12. She also encourages others that procrastinating and contemplating to do anything is not an option in their lives. All things are made possible with God. Today she can say to God be the glory, great things He's done.

The Journey Into a Man's Broken Heart


Book Description

Letter to the Reader: A story is just the formation of words used to paint the picture of an event. My story is not any different. Each word used, is full of emotions, with hopes of painting a portrait of LOVE. I always heard people say, "It's better to have LOVED and lost than not to have LOVED at all." And at times, I was completely in agreement with this. Well that was until I LOVED and lost and was never able to LOVE again. I can't blame LOVE for this, but I can blame me. In order to remove the stain that guilt has left on the remaining pieces of my heart, I painted this picture, with my words, in hopes that you will end up appreciating the gift of LOVE.
