For Months
I was reluctant about telling my story because I felt it wasn't unique and there are probably a million and one stories like mine on the Internet right now. But then it hit me that my story is the truth of what I went through and truth doesn’t have to be unique or fancy, it only has to be the truth. And, right now people need the truth to navigate their paths on this Earth better, not to mention just the same way the stories of many others have helped to shape my path and brought me to this point where I can share my own story.
Being a professional model in New York City afforded me the uncommon opportunities to travel the world, meet lots of celebrities, have the best that the world has to offer, and live my best life. I was literally on top of the world and I didn't lack anything. But then in 2010 the unexpected happened and I came crashing down from my ivory tower to the deepest ditch. It was like a movie and it played right before my eyes and I had no control over anything.
Tired and depressed, I went back home and began sleeping on my parent's couch. My parents were understanding of the situation but I still felt bad and each time my mom & dad passed by and saw me sleeping on the couch, the shame and guilt I felt for failing them grew a thousand times. I even contemplated suicide because I couldn't see the need for my continued existence but God didn't let me go through with it.
I prayed to God for years and for a countless number of times but it felt like he wasn't listening to any of my prayers. But even when I didn't get any answer or sign from God, I never stopped praying, laughing, dancing, and thanking him even for the couch. Psalm 91 was my prayer partner.
Then it happened in 2020, ten years after my life took a turn for worst, God gave my life a complete 180 degree turnaround and till today I still can't explain how it happened and why God did it for me. I thought God had left me, but He showed me that He was and has always been on my side. I am still on this journey and I know He has beautiful plans for my life and future.
Now I am here to tell you that no matter what you are going through and even though I know that what I faced doesn't compare to what many others have seen or are seeing in their lives today, I still believe your condition is not beyond what God can turnaround. He is not sleeping and will never sleep because of you. Keep trusting and putting him first in your lives. Your time of visitation is near.
Just keep smiling…
This is a faith based company so…
Don’t forget to put the Lord Jesus Christ first in your life and everything else shall be added! And if you don’t know God look below.
God Bless and spread the living word!
Romans Road
Read Now
Romans 3:23 - for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Romans 3:10-18 - 10 As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one; 11 there is no one who understands;
there is no one who seeks God.12 All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.” 13 “Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.” “The poison of vipers is on their lips. 14 “Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.” 15 “Their feet are swift to shed blood; 16 ruin and misery mark their ways, 17 and the way of peace they do not know.” 18 “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death
Romans 5:8 - But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 10:9 - “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Romans 10:13 – “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Romans 5:1 - Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Romans 8:1 - Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
Romans 8:38-39 - 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[k] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Say this Prayer:
“God, I know that I have sinned against you and am deserving of punishment. But Jesus Christ took the punishment that I deserve so that through faith in Him I could be forgiven. With your help, I place my trust in You for salvation. Thank You for Your wonderful grace and forgiveness - the gift of eternal life!
Amen!”
This prayer has now declared you to God and that you are relying on Jesus Christ for your salvation. The words themselves will not save you. Only faith in Jesus Christ can provide salvation!
FYI: Some Christians believe in the rapture, and some don’t but if you are not saved and you noticed that people are missing with no explanation and it’s Christians then the rapture happened (it was not aliens) and you have been left behind for the Great Tribulation. The good news is you can still be saved and whatever you do, do not get the 666/the mark of the beast because there is no turning back.
