      I am inspired by the Holy Spirit who is my Teacher to write this book.

      I am grateful and indebted to God for creating me and the entire world.

      I am indebted to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, you are my one true friend. You are my everything.

      I am grateful for my three grandaughters Taylor, Khloei and Erin, you are the sunshine of my life. I love you girls very much.

      Thank you to my children Derrick, Latrisha, Quaji, Crystal and Sherrod for your love and financial support. You have done a lot for me all through the years. I love you all very much. You all are precious to me.

      A special thank you aunt Dot, for your love and financial support. You obey God in all of your giving. You are always there for my children and me. When I need someone to talk to you are there. You have done so much for the entire family. I love you auntie, you are a true woman of God.

      A special thank you to my mother Stella, for obeying God’s plans of giving birth my siblings and me, for the love and concern that you have for the family and for all of those meals you prepared for us. I love you mom. God bless you.

      A special Thank you to my children’s father and my ex-husband Donald Worsley for being a very close friend to me and for all of your generous monetary contributions.

      Thank you to my two brothers Larry and Terry, you both have blessed me in your monetary giving and you gave me transportation when I needed you.

      Thank you to my sister Iris for your help with medical questions, and for your encouraging words.

      Thank you to my sister-in-law Toni, for the kindness you’ve shown toward me, for giving me transportation when I need you and for calling me to make sure i’m doing alright.

      Thank you to my nieces Trina, Lakeshia and my nephew Jermaine, you have done a lot for me all through the years, I couldn’t name it all if I tried.

      Thank you to my nieces Shontae, Tericka and my nephews Chris, Boo, Eric, Justin, Jamias, Kendrick, Jay, Jamie and Ken, I will never forget the times that you were there for me also.

      Thank you to uncle Johnnie Bryant and aunt Mag for the talks we have shared.

      To uncle Frank, you are a living testimony of what God can do.

      A special thanks to my Pastor and First Lady, Wayne and Carolyn Hines for preaching and teaching the word of God and for always telling us that the best is yet to come. Your faith bought your vision to life.

      Thank you to my two cousins, Nellie Lyons for going out of your way to give me a ride to sunday school, to Joann Draughn for your encouraging words of faith.

      Thank you to Beatrice Everette for helping me in the time of need and for having me as your client.

      A special thanks to my teacher Dr. Apostle Maggerline Lassiter, whom with the grace of God has taught me for 3 1/2 years how to speak boldly for the Lord, to Evelyn Mitchell for assisting the teacher, to Dorothy Armston for giving me a ride to Dr. Lassiter’s class every week.

      Thanks to the graduating class of 1976, you represent the true meaning of togetherness.

      Thanks to all of my relatives and friends, I hope that this book will be a blessing to you in your life struggles.

      May the Lord continue to bless and keep each and everyone of you.

      IN MEMORY OF MY GRANDMOTHER, LULA HINTON BRYANT, MY FATHER, ROBERT WHITEHEAD, MY BROTHER (Spooky) ROBERT WHITEHEAD JR, MY TWO SISTERS, LULA AND KATHERINE WHITEHEAD, AND MY AUNT CARRIE BRYANT, ALL OF WHOM I LOVED VERY DEARLY.

      When I started writing this book in 2009, I kept putting this project on the back burner. I have learned, if it is the Lord’s will for you to do something, his voice will push you until it is completed. I hope that with my testimonies of trials, temptations and struggles, we will gain different avenues and insights on how to overcome life situations.

      Life seems to be a struggle sometimes, but we really need to know and believe that we can get the best out of life. No matter what happens in life to knock you down, you can get up, dust yourself off and try again. We may not take the time to ask ourselves, should I give up because of my circumstances? Am I defeated? Do
