    Donna M Murray

    Donna Murray was born in Meridian, Mississippi. She is a mother, grandmother and friend to many. She’s the founder of a God-inspired girls’ group, Young Women With Purpose (YWWP). Due to the storms in her life, expressing herself on paper became her voice. That was the beginning of her passion for her God-given talent of writing. Donna has weathered many storms but still has a zeal to serve and to shower her love on others. A diamond in the rough, she is.

      Acknowledgments

      To my Lord and Savior, thank you for the gift of love and words. Forgive me for all I’ve ever done against your will for my life and may all that I do for the rest of my life glorify you.

      A special thanks to Special K (Ken), (for without the pain and hardships we’ve shared, I wouldn’t have the growth in Christ I have today.) I am also thankful for your growth and the person you’ve become.

      To my children Roshieka and Tayla for all the things you’ve endured and the love you’ve showed through it all. I am also thankful for the children God blessed me with through marriage, Clarissa, Christopher and Christina. And, I could never forget all of grannies babies. Granny loves you. Special thanks to Rose Odoms and Mary Odoms (Madear), my awesome mother and loving grandmother. Thank you, Saint John Missionary Baptist Church and the late Mrs. Barbara Griffin, for laying the foundation. Thank you, Oak Grove Church of God for being my place of growth in my transition season. I would also like to thank an awesome couple and a truly anointed woman of God, Sister and Brother Flowers. Thank God for these wonderful women that have supported me through my storms or touched my life in someway or another; thank you Aunt Beverly for always being there, Aunt Trish for always lending an ear, Veronica, Linda, Margo, my Aunt Tussie (I miss you), Sabrina Prince, my bestie/ride or die and Kajsa Cole, such an anointed and powerful vessel. God, I thank you
