I Survived Rejection and You Can Too! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781664279469)

As light as many people take it, rejection is a powerful weapon that the devil uses to destroy the hope, joy and peace of the children of God. There are many types of rejection. My story consists mainly of rejection of family and church.

It is important that my story be not mistaken as a "pity party". What happened to me is not only real, but the truth as it is told. If what has happened to me defines my state as "a victim", then it is what it is, but please know that as I type the words of my experiences on this paper I am healed and victorious in Christ Jesus. This testimony is for others who have experience rejection as I have, to know that they are not alone. This testimony is spoken for those who are so hurt from rejection that they are not able to articulate in words how they feel. The purpose of this testimony is to speak loud so that others can release, heal and move on to their next assignment.

Everything that happens in our lives can be used for God to get glory. God gets glory when we give it to Him. As Romans 8:28 states, "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose. Rejection doesn't feel good and the effects that it has on an individual can be detrimental to the state of a person's mind, body and soul if not released. Rejection can be intentional or unintentional. Rejection does not discriminate. It is prey to anyone who is subjectable.

Rejection doesn't care if you are rich or poor; white or black; born in a family with mother or father or born in a single parent home; female or male; child or adult; rejection is real.

This is my story. Yours may be different, but the one common goal that we share is that we survived. For those who may still battle with the aftermath of rejection, I pray that this testimony will encourage you to tell your story so that you may be healed. Someone's life depends on your story, mainly yours. Just tell it!
