Quello in cui si sarebbe emancipata dalla sua famiglia e dai suoi amici per affrontare il mondo dei grandi per la prima volta.

Every hardship intended to destroy me and keep me from the fullness of God’s intentions for my life, has in time been used to deepen my love for Jesus and expand my at times wavering faith.

It is with this belief, that I have chosen to write this devotional book. It is my hope that as I share my own personal stories, I will uncover and expose the enemy's lies, that the love and faithfulness of Jesus will be revealed and that God's story will be displayed in mine.
