God is so good. I'm sure you all know that I have been through it. From last year this time to now, and even from years prior to now. I feel like this life that I am living isn't even mine. I feel like I'm looking in and I'm in awe at what God has been up to.

It's not me and my doing. It's God. I feel so blessed to have been chosen by Him. I started asking him to use me last year. I wasn't sure what that would entail and for a minute I was almost afraid that i would be in danger and then brought out of it. or experience some Job like tragedy. But, still, I trusted God to get me through whatever he needed to in order to use me to show himself to people who might not otherwise see him.

Me May 2008: single mother of three, living on section 8, by myself, taking care of my kids, unemployed, trying to get in on that ChaCha hustle trying to get enough money for Christmas. Car acting up, and I know it's only trips from tearing up completely. Stressed, depressed, faking happy just to sooth the reality of what was in my natural world. Single, obsessing over why i was single, fiending for a man in my life, arms, and bed.


Me October 2009: still single mother of three, home owner, taking care of my kids, employed, stress free, not depressed, happy for real, 97 Camry, in school online full time(graduation may 2010), no longer bitter toward all the men who hurt me. no longer desperate enough to allow any man in my bed. patiently waiting on God's choice for me.

GOD IS GOOD.

Amen! What a great testimony and I'm sure there will be more to tell.

"He brought me from a mighty long way" is so much more than just a saying. :yep:

What a difference a year makes, huh? You know, we can stay using our excuses to keep us behind or let God lead us and take us forward..and that's what you did. :yep: God is good, congrats!
