One Sunday afternoon after attending worship service at my church, His Kingdom Ministries in Durham, North Carolina, I sat alone in my room and began to talk with God. I wanted to know why a woman like me, who clearly LOVES the LORD with all my heart, and soul, was battling so many storms back to back. At that very moment, while I was seeking God's face, He reminded me that serving Him, honoring Him, and loving Him would NOT be an easy task and that the Devil WOULD try to destroy me every chance that he could. He also reminded me of all the things that He went through when He was here on earth. He told me that if I truly loved Him, and believed in Him, that I would endure this pain with my head held high so that He could fulfill His destiny for my life, and receive all the glory... Yes, I became angry, and often rebellious to God's word, and plan for my life, but when it was all said, and done, I knew where my help cometh from. I knew that without God, Id is totally lost, and I just couldn't afford to be out of God's will or His grace.
