Hello friends!
I am Christian woman, disciple, writer, and artist.
I have a passion for the Word of God, for studying and writing about Christian theology, for helping and serving the Body of Christ, for counseling and discipling women, for discerning truth from error, but utmost for knowing Jesus.
I was deeply entrenched and involved in ministry in the New Apostolic Reformation, Word-of-Faith/Prosperity gospel movements for over a decade but left in the beginning of 2020 and have been getting my theology straightened out since.
God has freed me from so much dysfunction and torment in my life including addictions to alcohol and drugs, toxic, abusive, and co-dependent relationships, and anorexia. From being a backslidden, hypocritical professing Christian, from New Age ideologies and deceptions, from progressive liberal Christianity, from mental and emotional anguish and demonic torment, nightmares, and harassment along with many other things. I walked a dangerous, perilous, chaotic road for many many years and consider myself to be a walking miracle only alive today because of the faithfulness, mercy, and grace of God.
Another important part of my story is that I am became a widow in April 2021. I was married to the most amazing man of God named Dewayne for 5 1/2 years. He tragically passed away unexpectedly at age 42 of stage 4 untreatable cancer that we had just found out he had developed when he died.
Through the experience of losing my husband and my subsequent process of grieving him, I have been blown away by God's profound faithfulness. He has powerfully shown up for me since losing Dewayne. To take something so ugly and awful and tragic and make something beautiful from the ashes. That is the miracle-working, amazing love and mercy of our Heavenly Father.
Today I am in a great place and am light years from where I once was. I am still recovering from my own mental and emotional struggles but have come so incredibly far and I would never trade my journey for anything because of the person it has shaped me to be.
I am currently in school training to be a Christian counselor and I am loving it!
I also found an amazing new Church with sound teaching and some of the kindest, most humble and devout Christians I have ever known.
Please know that if you're a Christian dealing with any kind of illness, mental and emotional disorders, or any other life struggles or afflictions that the Lord is more than able to make beauty from your own pile of ashes. Whether He sovereignly chooses to heal our wounds and resolve our various sufferings in this life, or whether He grants us the grace endure them, He uses ALL of it for great and profound purposes to shape, mold, and sanctify those who love Him into the image of His Son. No suffering is ever wasted in the Lord's faithful hands.
My desire here on this blog is to communicate my personal journey of coming to know God in a greater, deeper measure; growing in the truth, and in doctrinal soundness, and hopefully help others on their journey in the process. I also share my artwork and poetry to inspire and bring more light and joy to the world.
I'd love for you to join me on my journey to knowing Christ as I share here...
God bless you!
