My belief is that God, our Heavenly Father, sent His only son Jesus to save us. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for the sins of the world, and that He rose with all power in His hands. I believe He has given me the gift of expressing His love and plan for His people through writing.
I was born in central Florida and was raised by my grandmother. At the age of nine, I began to inquire about God and wanted to know more about the bible. I started studying with Jehovah’s Witnesses, but felt that something was missing. There were numerous contradictions between what I read in the King James version of the bible and what the Jehovah’s Witnesses were teaching me from their bible.
When I reached age 14, I met an elderly woman who was known as Mother Hicks. Mother Hicks was an evangelist. She had a special call on her life, which she dedicated to preaching the gospel, ministering the scriptures, and reaching those who were found in places other than church. She taught that God was not limited to a church facility, but that He is with everyone, everywhere. You can live your life as though He is with you everywhere – because He is! Through Mother Hicks’ ministry, I received Christ as my personal savior and began my journey to develop a deeply personal relationship with Him.
At age 18, I left home and joined the military. During this time, I struggled between obeying God’s Word and living life the way I wanted to live it. When I realized there was no real life without Christ, I made the decision to stop compromising what I knew was right for what I knew was wrong. With this decision, I began living the way I had learned to live before I left home.
I rededicated my life several years later, and I made it my goal to allow God’s Word to come alive in my life. Prior to transitioning out of the military, I accepted God’s call to ministry. I believe that God has anointed me to write messages of hope and inspiration for His people and to reach others who want to know Him in a personal way.weniger sehen
