Introduction

My journey consists of pain, struggle, patience, suffering, humbleness, love, peace, and the taking down of strongholds. All these things I have endured in my transition. I had to fight. I was weary, angry a lot of the times, and unsure of myself. But because the love of God, His grace, and mercy brought me through, I want people to know that no matter what it seems like, you can and will make it through.

Hopefully something in my book will help you find your way because God is ready, willing, and able to aid you. The battle is already won!

Chapter 1

Going Through

When I gave my life to God, I never knew it would be the way it was and would be. There are days when you’re loving God, feeling full of life, trying to do most things right, and I say most because we are not perfect people. We may fail at times, and when we do, don’t just stay there feeling miserable, thinking that you’ll never do this right or saying nothing good is going to happen for me.

No matter what, we also think that God has forsaken us. I used to feel that exact same way before and after I gave my life to God. Then I learned that God was always there. He never left me. If you’re going through the same thing, you may become very overwhelmed with different thoughts running all around your head. You may be confused and don’t know what to do or who to turn to. But I know a higher power that will be there for you when your family and friends are not, and His name is Jesus.

No matter what the situation you might find yourself in, God will bring you out. Just trust, have faith, and believe and watch Him work for you. I say this to you because I have tried God for myself. He leads me, He guides me, and He’s my deliverer, my healer, my strength, and my high power in times of storms. He
