"Starting Over"
I decided in the middle of my career to change the course and direction of my life. The funny thing is that being so passionate about becoming an attorney when I started out doesn't feel so appealing anymore. All I want to do now is something that I love. Find my niche!
I prayed last year that God would send new people in my life and close the doors from people who were sucking me dry. He did that, I wasn't afraid to move. A revelation that I will now share with you, has to be told. It just might save someone from forfeiting their whole future and generations to come. I remember it like it was yesterday. I had just made the toughest decision a young woman could make. It was to leave a eight year marriage that was going no where.
On that faithful night, I remember prayer asking God to give me my dignity, but I have to get out. This is not what you have for me, or my three precious jewels. It was that night he revealed to me that all of Philadelphia was on fire, but I was lifted high up in the air safe from harm with my family. That has stayed with me all my life and as God brings me closer to the gospel. That vision is becoming more clearer.
