Succeed Anyway: Find our God-given Potential, Purpose and Passion through Christ

By Kisha Battle Houston

Find our God-given potential, purpose, and passion through Christ.

You can learn how to succeed anyway despite past discretions, unhealthy expectations, generational strongholds, low self-esteem, self-image, and correct limiting beliefs about your ability to become successful. The more you read and work through this spiritual success journal, the more you will strengthen, empower and restore your life. You can learn how to look at yourself in the mirror every day, deepen your understanding of how to move past negative feelings, and control your emotions in a biblical way. This spiritual journal will teach you why it is important to make time for devotion and the benefits of having a Christ-like character as it relates to your feelings of unworthiness.

I truly love the Lord for all He has done for me in my life. I have indeed been blessed at an early age to hear from God and understand what my purpose is in this life. I believe that I have been purposed to motivate, inspire, empower, heal, and help others to be delivered through God’s word and His works in ministry.
