"I have doubted myself and God's ability to use ’me?’ for years! However, God has remained faithful to HIS calling for ‘me?’. Today, although I still stand amazed that He uses ’me?’ in such a great manner, I am certain that he has called ME to this work and HE will perform His will for both me and others, in and through my obedience. I now recognize how over the years, God has been shaping and molding me to fulfill HIS purposes. Today, I am convinced, without a shadow of a doubt, that God has called, anointed, and appointed me to minister to women. The hand of God is working and doing with my life what he created me to do from before time began, for His Glory!" I minister to women using my own experiences and testimony to set them free from the bondage of worldly thinking that manifests in low self-esteem, fear, and approval seeking."
