Book Cover & Preview Text
Here is my story; it depicts my growth from independence to dependence on God. God’s Word has undoubtedly become meat for my soul, nurturing and fostering my relationship and my growth in Him. Come Walk with Me outlines my life’s journey of overcoming hurdles meant to deter me from reaching my destiny in God. Things that were meant for my harm turned out to be the things that pushed me into the waiting arms of Jesus. Come Walk with Me is built on faith. Early in my life, I knew of God from my parents, especially my mom, and from what I heard and saw in church, but I didn’t know God. I knew of faith because my mom believed and lived what she could not physically see. In her heart, she knew that God would bring something—whatever it was—to fruition. I didn’t have her faith; but I had her example, so I knew I wasn’t operating in faith. But that changed the day I fell in love with Jesus. I personally experienced the tangible benefits of inviting Jesus into my life as a repentant soul. I tasted His goodness. I was a benefactor of His mercy. I received grace when I didn’t deserve it. My mind-set changed. What once seemed so hard was not as hard. A trust that I never knew I possessed became evident. I saw God loosen the shackles of bondage that I could not loosen myself. I witnessed God holding back the hand of one who would have otherwise physically harmed me. I learned that whatever appeared impossible to me was but a toy to Jesus. He blessed my soul, day in and day out. Of the many who knew Him not, He chose me, and I accepted the call. My earnest hopes and prayers are that something penned on these pages will encourage you or someone dear to you to “O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him” (Psalm 34:8). At the conclusion of this book, I’ve dedicated a poem to my mom, titled “Come Walk with Me.” Although my mom is at rest in the Lord, I believe that during the most turbulent times in my life, she has constantly been with me in spirit, holding my hand and cheering me on in that calming voice of hers, saying, “Baby, you can make it with Jesus.”
