Receiving a new version of yourself is one thing, walking in it can be another.
This becomes a task you have to continually work at perfecting. Coming from years of low self image, I viewed unknown, uncharted territory as high risk or not yet God, I'm not ready. Not yet God, I'm still a work in progress. Not yet God...what if I fail?
I kept questioning the Word that He gave me - 'write the books'. In looking through a 2009 diary, there it was - the beginning of the first book. I finally finished it this year (2019)...You Have A Voice. Geez! In 10 years I must have picked up, and put down, the same unfinished book more than a hundred times, and that is not an exaggeration. I have written articles, typed and edited books, manuscripts, articles and dissertations for others. Why did it take so long to write MY book? I have no good answer but going through the different experiences that I have in life gave me a heart’s desire to connect with hurting women - the ones screaming silently while smiling and functioning on the outside. The ones who feel they have no voice, or have had their voices stifled to the point that they feel why even say a word? I want them to realize, like me, you do have a voice and it does matter...it does deserve to be heard because YOU do matter.
