Book Cover & Preview Text
On January 15, 2003 I was dropping off mail in the alleyway on Music Row; it was about 6:00 p.m. and completely dark. I happened to be the only one pulled up to drop off mail which was really unusual for that time of day, so I left my car, running with my door open, As I was headed back to my car,there was a guy walking toward me, I smiled and picked up my pace to my car. Just as I got to my car and ready to get in, he grabbed my left arm and said, " Get in and move over." It was though the Lord was putting thoughts in my head: He wants you to be quiet, so be loud. I turned my body towards my car door while waving my hands in the air and screaming for all I was worth; I didn't even recognize the sound coming from me. About that time a girl driving towards us in the alley began honking her horn, drawing attention. He immediately left me, jumped in his car and was now driving towards her, she backed her car up to let him out. Everything within me told me he had a gun, If he did and shot me, at least I had a chance there in the alley. I believe if I had gotten in the car, I might not have survived if taken from that location. I learned from that experience there is such a peace that I know God is with me at all times.

About the Book
We all can become the vessel God created us to be. Do you feel you might not be worthy for God to use you? He just wants an open and willing heart, and He will guide you through the rest, no matter what. Let your test become your testimony.
Author Pamela Wagner Long has had a wide range of life experiences. She was born in 1957 in the midst of a notable March blizzard in Kansas; her father died in an accident when she was six years old, an event that changed her life. After growing up in various states across the Midwest, building a family, and attending church only some of the time, Pamela found a way to realize her dreams of working in the music industry in Nashville, Tennessee. But eventually she found herself facing a decade of major health issues, addressable only by gastric bypass surgery—a major challenge that would strain her relationships with those around her and test her faith as nothing had before. Even so, as she reflects on her life history, Pamela knows that God’s hand was with her all along.
This personal narrative presents one woman’s life story and testimony as she traces the thread of faith woven throughout the fabric of her life.
