Early in my legal career my husband and I were blessed to welcome our first child into the world. At this point I made the decision to leave the law firm I worked for to better devote my time and energy to my growing family. While home with my children I began to realize that something in my spirit didn’t feel right, something was missing.
So, after several weeks of diligent prayer, soul searching, and self-examination, God revealed to me my purpose. He wanted me to speak for Him. He wanted me to encourage others and let them know that their best life could only be obtained through Him.
Shortly after this revelation, life happened. Our precious 5-year-old son Brayden, was diagnosed with stage IV brain cancer. I was now facing the trial of my life. Yet God assured me that I could experience victory no matter what the outcome. True to His word God equipped me to not only handle the sickness and eventual death of our dear Brayden but to also step boldly into the calling He had on my life.
Though my life is far from what I imagined I am overcome with joy with the peace God has given our family as we continue to miss our precious son yet rejoice in the miracle of new beginnings.
