DEDICATION

I dedicate this book to ME. When I look back over all that I have come through, I am a bit shocked myself, because on this journey, there are so many things I never thought I would get over, let alone get through. There are so many things and people that have tried to destroy me and my peace, but in them pushing and coming to see my demise, God has constantly been showing them my resurrection in different versions, but while showing them my resurrection, he has been showing me as well. This book series has pushed me to a different level of writing and being THE VOICE, Surrendering to God has been the best decision of my life. Getting to this point of feeling FREEDOM is one for the books. Freedom is not what we want to do, it is doing what we were CREATED to do.

I also dedicate this book to all other women and men who have felt that the trials, setbacks, and roadblocks, as well as the heartaches, or the thought of not knowing how to transform, transition, or be a part of the solution to a problem, has made you want to give up, but you have not by the grace of God. I pray that my words in Reflections in Verse touch you and you consciously gain a sense of well-being through meditation of my words as they touch your hearts and souls.
