      UNDERSTAND HOW TO WAIT IN THE MIDST OF TROUBLE

      A CHRONICLE STORY FROM PAIN TO INSPIRATION AND DELIVERANCE

      WITH GODS’ GIFTS

      PERSONAL PREFACE

      I made it through this particular test called, Dilemma and Time! I know that today I am much stronger and able to report that I am an over comer. The problems we encounter in this life can make us better or devour our very essence. I have attained knowledge about myself and the reasons and purpose for the test by the wisdom and guidance of Jesus Christ. The Lord has allowed me to appreciate the benefits of this waiting period that only time can afford. I discovered that God had his own plans for me and that the perplexing mess that I found myself in one horrible day had a purpose and would work out for my good! Now it is finally time to tell my story. Through my experiences in a painful situation, I hope to encourage you the reader as well as to renew your own respect and value to wait . . .

      Time allowed me to have a greater advantage in preparing for my future. I was able to learn the importance of making the right decisions. I discovered a new me and the destiny that God had already ordained. Life became much easier as I focused on the right path that led towards success. Hard times and difficulties were put into proper prospective. The past is behind me and I look ahead towards a new day and a much brighter future. Today, my burdens are gone and my troubles are handled in such a different manner. I see the light that shines on my pathway, guiding me step by step to my expected end. Only time has taught me to be receptive and obedient to God’s way!

      I have been blessed to gain a deeper relationship with the Lord. Truly I am connected to God and my life has more personal meaning, depth and a calling to live on a level that faith in Jesus Christ could produce. During this profound period I found a new sense of self awareness and the ability to share this story as a opening dialogue of what waiting actually could mean even in your life.

      I’m not a bad person with a lot of issues and complications, just a child of God wanting more for my life. Progress in the Lord demands a standard of living far above the norm. In this story, I experienced a season in my life that can be represented as what is known as: the storms of life . . . Waiting is in no way easy to accomplishment. It can be quite difficult, but it is important to embrace the process of all it takes to make it to the other side of peace. It may be one of the hardest things ever required of you, peace is priceless! I exhort you to allow God to work on your behalf as He did for me and my family. The storms you face indeed could be designed and tailored made especially for your life! There is a purpose for it all! You can have victory in every situation! May my own personal testimony be the link and bridge that will report how self help is never enough, but that we need God’s help!

      Time allows us to learn how to move and respond to issues in the right way. The enemy has a plan to stop and even destroy our progress in God. But the Lord can turn every thing around and cause the worse situations to work out for our greater good. Today, I’ve overcome the past and catching up with a new and beautiful life. The world is constantly changing, but God stays the same. My purpose is to help someone else avoid the problems that I was forced to deal with. This book is written to help you sort through the obstacles that time will freely permit you to come to a conclusion of truth and a better understanding. It’s a brand new day! New stories are being written! Living with the grace of God is worth it all. Time has become a blessing for me and my family. I prayed that who ever reads this book will be ultimately blessed.

      I am proactive and positive daily because of the promises of God. Full of faith in God’s Word and truly believing that all things are possible! I speak the truth and write only about the truth from my own pain and personal account.

      Life keeps moving forward and living is for those that survive and chose to move in a positive way in spite of. Life can be one of your toughest teachers, make sure you learn the intended lesson!

      I’m thankful for another opportunity to receive the favor of Lord. I am free and conscious of the fact that some people don’t make it through hard times! There is a huge price to pay for the mistakes we make! I choose to learn from my past actions and count up the cost in advance so that I never again in this life find myself in this type of ordeal. I have obtained more wisdom and maturity. So, I run this race with renewed patience and apply the lessons from the past years of struggle.

      I have had to fight in order to over come! I had to pursue to win the victory in this test! Time and waiting gave me strength to bear the unbearable. I’m good now! I’m blessed and I have found happiness! I am a witness that Jesus Christ can solve and change any crisis that you face. He meets the need! He can solve any problem!

      While You Wait, gives you the time and the opportunity. It is a gift! It is the grace to recognize and know; whatever the problem maybe, waiting has a genuine purpose and unique plan for your circumstances. Take all the time you desire and get to know Jesus Christ for yourself! Try Jesus as He handles the cares that are much too strenuous for you to carry! Allow Him to have first priority in your life and watch how in a matter of time, He will make everything alright!
