Since I wrote the previous version of this book I have encountered many other storms. Some have been very brutal. But thanks be unto God. I believe I fought a good fight and I have intentionally kept the faith in spite of the fierce storms. God never tell us when the storms will come, however He did warn us that they will. We can be assured, that we will not walk through it alone if we truly walk by faith trusting Him every step of the way. According to the preacher in Ecclesiastes chapter three (3) and seven (7) by revelation states that God does not show us everything at once. Who would dare go through till the end knowing the outcome? We are admonished to believe only and trust Him. After all, it is for our good and not for evil to bring us to destiny. Wow! But it sure hurts...! You will grow through as you go through. All of this I have learned in this season, and I am extremely grateful after the fact. It has been a season of transformation and renewal of my mind. I can now be of help to someone else. I painfully allowed myself to go through the dark moments crying out to God each step of the way. Brethren...! I truly know the way out. I know his sustaining grace and power. Through it all, I maintained a very intimate relationship with my Heavenly Father.
