Making Progress and Keeping The Faith (193 hits)

I am currently working on the 7th chapter of the first book I'm preparing to have published. It's really exciting to finally be doing what I've wanted to do for years. I don't want to give the credit to this wonderful resession but it has played a huge part in my life at the moment. In January I became one of it's victims but I'm trying to turn it around in my favor. I do believe that when one door closes another one will open. God did not bring me this far to fail. These little battles that we go through should make us stronger and for me it is. With the grace of God I have managed to keep a roof over my head as well as my daughter's. Don't get me wrong I haven't been smiling the whole time. I deffinitely had some very bad days but being positive and faithful has always paid off for me. I'm not going to get into my life story right now but keep an eye out because it will be posted soon. Sharing our stories is not about self fame. I believe it's about growth and helping others. You never know who's reading and might need a ray of light or a little hope. It also brings us closer together.

I'm also working on two websites. When I came out of my panic mode after being laid off I realized that there were still opportunities out there. I may be down but I'm not out. I jumped on the computer and gave myself a crash course on a number of things I thought I needed to know.

Some tell me that I'm crazy or that I'm doing this because I have nothing but time on my hands right now. I just tell them that I am Blessed and Highly favored and that Anything is possible through Christ who strengthens me.

Please keep me in your prayers as I will keep you in mine.
