3 MOVING BOOKS WERE WRITTEN BECAUSE THEY WERE INSPIRED BY GOD
They were my assignment from God. I was prompted by the will of God and felt compelled to write them because He told me to write my way to people and share His message of love, hope and salvation with others.
The books speak to the power and awesomeness of the real true and Living God. They instill hope, courage, inspiration and motivation in the spirit of others, as well as change lives!
Your heart will find peace and understanding in the content, your soul will be comforted, your faith will be strengthened, and your mind enlightened.
WHY DOES GOD MANIFEST HIMSELF TO PEOPLE?
He manifests Himself to us because He said He would in His Word. In Revelation 3:20 and John 14:23. He said, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him."
He manifests Himself to us because He wants His people to know Who He is. He manifests Himself to us because He wants us to share our testimony stories with others that they too may come to know Him. He manifests Himself to us because He is not willing that any of us should perish but that all be saved and come to the knowledge of truth. (2 Peter 3:9, I Timothy2:4).
He manifests Himself to us because He wants to repent of our sins, that He may bring us from darkness to light, and from Satan to God. He manifests Himself to us to set us free from negative thoughts and feelings: such as fear, worry, doubt, confusion, jealousy, anger, hate, and selfishness.
A LOOK FROM THE BEGINNING OF MY STORY
It was a cold Sunday night in late-January of 1995 around 1:00 am. My husband had gone to bed and the house was quiet. I stayed up to finish reading my book. As I sat in the corner of my big plaid three cushioned couch reading, suddenly, my kitchen floor squeaked as it always does when someone walks through. I sensed an overwhelmingly presence walk up to the doorway leading into the living room and stop! I immediately looked up but saw no one. How strange, I thought? But I continued to read. Soon it was impossible, for I could feel this presence was moving closer and getting stronger. I felt a cool breeze blowing over the top of my head. While looking up and around trying to see where the breeze was coming from, I sensed this presence was on the couch right next to where my pen and pad lay! I looked in that direction while thinking to myself this can't be happening.
Then I heard what sounded like someone take a deep sigh. I couldn't believe it! The sigh sound came again, only this time louder, as if really trying to get my attention. I closed the book! Trust me, whoever was there had every ounce of my attention. I am not sure why, but I felt a strong urge to pick my pin and pad up. You see, I usually keep a pen and pad nearby whenever I am reading because I like to take notes. The second I held the pen to the pad, to my surprise, the pen automatically began to move up and down and from side to side. What... I thought? I was extremely curious. Oh my God! Oh my God! It moved! It moved! This can't be happening, I thought.
However, I didn't feel fear or danger, but my mind just couldn't process what was happening. I knew it was real! Yet I just couldn't understand it. So, I quickly threw the pen aside, balled up the paper, threw it in the trash, went to bed pulling the covers over my head: thinking to myself, who is here; what is going on?
Making a long story shorter, 5 days later, that experience was followed by a Powerful Supernatural Encounter with the Living God on a cold Friday afternoon in January 1995 in Emerson Arkansas in my mother's kitchen next to the kitchen sink and washing machine. (The details are on my testimony page under, Testimony: Supernatural Experience).
I will say this much, while caught up with God, I could feel myself standing inside of God Himself: for we were One and the same being. I could feel all the love He has for all of His children all over the world. Thus, I can truly say He wants you to know without a shadow of doubt that He loves you unconditionally. He wants you to consider Him and invite Him into your daily life, for He wants to lead and guide you. He is already in you (John 14:20, I John 4:13). You must believe that, because it is absolutely true! He is as close to you as the jugular veins are in the side of your neck. Don't let the devil tell you anything differently: And please know there is nothing we can do to make God not love us any more than He already does!
The experience was as though God reached down from heaven and pulled me up into His bosom, wrapped me in His peaceful loving arms, penetrated my hardened heart with three painless vigorous thrusts. Making my heart of stone a heart of flesh. Making it a heart that is soft, a heart that could feel love and a heart that could forgive others. My heart had become cold and hard over the years because of all the hurt, pain and disappointment I had experienced throughout my life, especially during the last few years before 1995. It was as if God squeezed the hardness from my heart and took the blinders from my eyes, and said, "Wake up my child, it's time to know the truth and be set free."
IN THE BEGINNING GOD! GOD WAS, GOD IS, AND HE ALWAYS WILL BE
I did not know the presence of God had always been with me, until one day after the Supernatural Encounter, which dramatically changed my life forever: He said to me, "I have always been with you; you just didn't know it."
Today, now that I know it I am so glad about it, for I know I will never walk alone again.

WHAT GOD WANTS US TO KNOW
He wants us to know we can't be too bad or do too much wrong or make too many mistakes that He will not love us and accept us just as we are! God wants us to know and understand that He loves us unconditionally. He wants us to know He is willing to forgive all your sins or wrongdoings, if only we ask. He wants to give us a joy that the world can't give. He wants us to know we are never alone, and that He is "...A very present help in time of trouble" (Psalm 46:1). And that He "is near to all who call upon Him in truth" (Psalm 145:18).
He also wants us to know that He sees us and knows us well. I know this for a fact, because He said is to me one night as I was writing the first book, White Light. He arrested my attention and said these words very clearly, "I sit on my throne; I see throughout the whole world every problem and every situation. I see the needs, the desires of my suffering souls. I see my souls dying of starvation, a starvation of love.”
Therefore, most of all, God loves us so much and He doesn't want the precious souls of His children suffering, dying of a Starvation of LOVE any longer! Thus, God wants us to know we can come home to Him; come home to Love, for He is truly LOVE. He wants us to experience how amazing His love is because He knows we need it! More than anything, He wants to give you a peace that passes all understanding.
"THE POWER WITHIN" IS THE SIN NATURE DEEP WITHIN US.
HOW TO KNOW WHEN SIN IS CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE.
The Apostle Paul said, in the Living Translation Bible, "I want to do what is good, but I don't. I don't want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. But if I do what I don't want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it." (Romans 7:19-20). So, you see sin can have a strong grip on us. But God's Word can break that powerful stronghold in us.
We are vulnerable to sin, more loyal to our old way of selfish living than to God.
We must be aware of the deceitfulness of sin; it attracts but also destroys.
This inward struggle with sin was as real for Paul as it is for many of us today. But from Paul we learn what to do about it. Whenever he felt overwhelmed by the spiritual battle within, he would return to the beginning of his spiritual life, remembering how he had been freed from the bondage of sin by Jesue Christ.
Therefore, whenever we feel confused, and captivated by sin's attractiveness, let us claim the freedom Christ gave us. His power can lift us to victory, to freedom because God's Word is inerrantly and infallibly powerful, able and capable of doing whatever He says it will do--when we beleive it, when we have faith in it and when we used it; we'll become free in indeed!

Test, Trials, and Tribulations
Before Manifestation
My life was a miserable hot mess before that miraculous experience took place and changed my life's perspective forever,
I was experiencing some very dark and disillusioned times before God manifested Himself to me through a Supernatural Encounter in 1995. I'll just highlight a few here: tremendous family trials, financial hardship, threaten with house foreclosure, repossession of car, oldest son battling Crack cocaine and alcohol addiction, youngest son pronounced he hated me, denounced me as his mother and threaten to call the police on me. during one of his angry disrespectful outbursts.
My middle daughter blatantly accused me and my husband of something we did not do. I felt she treated me as her enemy, while months of reoccurring conflict made matters even worse. The death of my 9-month-old grandson, my husband's affairs and a broken heart I thought would never heal was my breaking point. I was a hurting, miserable mess, feeling lost and empty on the inside. I sort relief and comfort at the night-club after getting off work at 12:00 mid-night, but there was none. I was surrounded by darkness, sorrow, disappointment, pain, and confusion. I had come to the end of myself, and I didn't know what to do, or who else to turn to. All I knew was that I begin to feel driven, propelled with desperation in my being, and a knowing in my soul that somethings had to change soon!
I had already started to pray and call on God. At the time I prayed I wasn't even sure if God was really real or not, or if He had even heard me. I thought even if He did exist, He was too far away out there and couldn't hear me! I just knew I had prayed and called on God sincerely and honestly as I knew how.
OUR GOD HEARS OUR PRAYERS AND HE DEFINATELY ANSWERS OUR PRAYERS
Little did I know God was already dawning me to Himself, with those feelings I was experiencing, but I didn't know it. Making a long story short, a few weeks later God answer my pray with a spiritual visitation in the presence of my brother, Will who had passed five years earlier.
Four days later, in Emerson, Arkansas in my mother's kitchen in 1995, God powerfully stepped into my messes up life big time when least expected and manifested Himself to me through an overwhelming Supernatural Encounter. When suddenly, a misty, white, cloudy-looking substance swiftly swirled around me at a rapid speed and lifted me upward, higher and higher into the sky, until I found myself standing inside of God Himself! I was in God and He was in me! We were merged together as One Being! He was so Alive and more real than anything I have ever known! All I could say was "Lord You are real. Lord You are real."
Not only is God Real, He heard me when I prayed, and He answered me! WOW! How awesome is that? I have shared the full account of my testimony story in these 3 Moving Books; and how the Almighty Living God came into my life and changed it forever. The experience left me never to be the same. He gave me the assignment of writing 3 books; He told me to write my way to peoples who needed me that I might share His message of love and hope with others; that they might believe in Him and be saved too.
If you sincerely pray, asking God into your heart, I guarantee you He will surely come in! Today, I truly know without a shadow of doubt, God is real. He is Alive, and He definitely answers our Prayers.

Hear the Words Jesus spoke to the people when He walked on earth over two thousand years ago: His Words are just as true for us today as they were back then. He said, "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light" (Matthew 11:28-30).
If you are feeling lost and hopeless, not sure what to do, or who to turn to; please know you can confidently call on Jesus, your Savior, with a sincere heart. I guarantee you He will definitely answer your call!
