Maria Goodwin

She is an ordinary woman like millions that are looking for their value and their purpose. She has been a child, a student, a worker, a wife, a mother, a teacher, a friend, a grandmother, a business owner, an author. These were her titles that produced pride and vain glory. She has learned that only finding your God-given value and purpose, life has true meaning with peace, love, and joy to pass on to others. She is a woman that is watching and hoping that other women by reading this book find the courage to give up false gods to find true love and the way to abundant life. To find your true self is a miracle that all women should search for. The world needs that kind of women.

About the Author

I

dedicate this book to my deceased parents, my sister, my husband, my children, and my friends who over the years had to suffer putting up with my wicked ways of selfish love and a will that would not stop.

In this book the search to do better and be better is my hope for a better tomorrow.

This is the mission of the new life.

Introduction

What Is This Book About?

This book is meant to show us why people suffer because of the lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).

This books shows the exchange from the world system to the kingdom of God that will give us love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. (Matthew 6:10).

It has been written to guide me and others out of a world full of confusion, hate, and war to a better life and to teach us to let go of roots and beliefs that have deceived us. I John2:15-16-17

We need to believe that by listening to God and allowing His Spirit to discipline and direct our daily routine with harmony and care, we will be walking toward a life of peace and joy (John 14:26).

The world will fight us, but you have to believe that the fight for acceptance in worldly images and pleasures that don't last are far more damaging and painful.

This challenge is a gift. The end is a miracle.

A Woman Is Born Today

Look at her.

Rest in her.

Pick her up with care.

Look that she is okay.

Take her out of the grave.

Tell her not to look back.

Help her get out of the past.

Slowly help her breath.

Assure her that she will be all right.

Let her rest but don't let her fall asleep.

Whisper to her and tell her that she will be okay, that she is okay.

Wait for daily bread that will give her strength.

Don't allow anyone to rob her of her rest and healing.

She is waiting for life abundant.

She is waiting to smile and enjoy peace.

She is learning to respect and honor herself.

She is learning to accept her creation and praise God for it.

A Woman with Purpose

Look at her and make sure that she finds her value and is ready to be what God wants her to be. You are the woman. Have respect for yourself and others. You cannot show other women who you are without first proving to yourself who you are.

Are you married? You are not a woman because your husband is this or that. You are the woman. Stand up and be one. Every married man needs a real woman to feel like a man.

If you force a man to care for you, this is not love. You should be able to care for yourself and help him be the man he is supposed to be. If you know how to take care of yourself, this does not give you the right to abuse or intimidate him because of what he cannot give you.

If a man can support his wife financially, he still has the responsibility to love her. He must not intimidate his wife with his money by giving her too much or too little and robbing her of her own value.

Be an example. You are the woman who must change and be the vessel God wants to use to bring His peace into your home, your community, and the world.

A Disciplined Woman

Be firm in your convictions, and remain disciplined with all your heart and your mind.

The change is hard at first, but if you keep up this discipline, you will have success and be a happier and healthier person. This will carry over to your family.

You are the woman. Be happy doing and being what you were created to be.

Discipline Diet

Discipline is the preservation of life. You may think that is old-fashioned talk. I also thought that until out of desperation from my confused, sad, disorderly, and abusive
