About The Author

Preface

This book will touch on the relationship for the family, ministry and personal experiences through Faith and Grace for the believer. When I was a young girl, I would always write short stories, skits, and poems. I was inspired to become an author at an early age. I was inspired to write this book through the conviction of the Holy Spirit. I was dealing with unforgiveness at the time, and the Lord began to speak to me about Grace. Moreover, this brought me to researching Grace and how I should apply it to my everyday life. It was then that I felt lead to write this book.

This book started in my belly in the year of 2017. I had to give birth to this book, but it took me until 2023 to finish. I now see why it took so long because I had to go through other obstacles so that I could have even more clarity as to how Grace works and how I should apply it to my life while I inspire you as the readers to see how Grace will bring you through any circumstance that you may face in this lifetime. 

This book has really blessed me as I sat down praying about every insert that should be written in this book. Now, I have a greater respect for God’s Grace as I apply it to my life. It is my hope that after you read this book. You will be inspired or challenged to live in Grace while walking in Grace daily. Just remember that God loves you, and it’s His heart’s desire that we all receive the Crown of righteousness.
