She lived only as a believer and married a nonbeliever, a life of continual struggle. Her four children were her life.
At the age of thirty-five, after learning of the Holy Spirit, in which she received the fullness of, she become hungry for God. She began studying the Word as much as she could. Her obsession for study caused her to learn many things. When she learned of Kenneth E. Hagin, a mid-1900's pastor, teacher, evangelist, prophet and founder of Rhema Bible School, he became her mentor. Also, reading most of his book, helped her to learn much more.
This led to a life time of research in the Bible. Over the years, she attended two different churches, and was asked by each Pastor to lead the adult Sunday School class, in which she was allowed to prepare her own lessons. Writing these lessons helped her to understand and retain what she studied, causing her to write all her studies for her own learning and understanding.
She began to believe she should take some writing courses, which she completed. Later, God lead her to do an in-depth study of the Holy Spirit, which was wholly revealing. "Tongues of Fire", as in the book of Acts, was published by a company connected with Amazon.
She had barely finished that book, when God commissioned her to write another book, "It's all about Love.' This was truly a difficult study, for God was in control, leading her with one new revelation after another.
As a teenager, she became interest in the genealogy of her maternal linage, learning to prove everything from documented records. This she does in all her studies.view less
