About this ebook
It is my heartfelt prayer that through these writings the reader will find peace, comfort, and resolution for the many struggles, pains, and difficulties faced in life. May you be embraced and empowered by God’s presence as you indulge in the healing words expressed and captured by my life’s experiences. May you be rescued from the insecurities and challenges you face, learn to focus, and gain knowledge, and to be wise, prudent, compassionate, and understanding of others. May you reach your goals and fulfil your destiny. May you be led by the Holy Spirit, be renewed with a willing desire to serve your life’s purpose. May love and faith be ignited in your soul as you encounter the true meaning of Christ in your life.
Nancy Rivera Schuyler
Nancy Rivera Schuyler was born and raised in a minority neighborhood project of the uptown Bronx, New York area. Being the daughter of a pastor, she faced many obstacles and challenges, as she was forced to overcome, many years of bullying, name calling and fighting to survive her environment. These early childhood challenges would later hinder her emotional growth and well-being. Nancy was extremely withdrawn, unable to express herself, labeled as shy, quiet and socially challenged. She developed a true relationship with God, through her writing, which served as an outlet of expression and healing. Her commitment to God helped her face her struggles, through prayer and poetry, as she gained her voice and learned to overcome.
