Excerpt from my book “Who Me? Worthwhile? Yes, You!”
The Bible is full of many helpful things and examples. But I think the greatest is how He has created us to have a free will. This shows to me how much He really loves us. He gives us choices in our lives. I cannot fully comprehend how great that love really is but I do know that He has created us with a plan in mind being in His image tells me that is the case. We each have a purpose. Some of us might have to look a little harder than others but it is there waiting for us to claim it. God has made you who you are for a reason. What might it be?

exerpt from my book "Who Me? Worthwhile? Yes, You!"
I have always felt like I was not good enough for anything. Therefore, everything I tried I did in fear. I was afraid that if people really found out who I was they certainly would not like me. Everything I worked for would be over. Being fearful can cause you to always be looking over your shoulder wondering what was going to happen next. You become afraid that something bad was waiting down the line for you, therefore, you chose to stand still. When fear controls you, you do not move far or at all. Let God help you get over the fears that cause you to shudder whenever you think of facing the world. The world can be scary enough place without carrying added, unnecessary fear. What will you do with your fear? I have chosen. Let God handle those kinds of fears in my life. It is not always easy but worth the effort.

THROW THE GARBAGE AWAY
I have garbage in my life from childhood because of what was done to me. They shoveled it in and I could do nothing. I carried it I had no choice but now I do. The choices are let it stink up my life or throw it away. Getting rid of it is not always easy but it can be done. When that smelly stuff gets thrown away what a relief it is. Your whole life starts smelly better and opening the door to others is even easier. Do you have garbage in your life? I would challenge you to throw it away. It might not be easy but I know you can do it. You might think I don't even know what garbage you have or how you've had it and that is right. But I do know what garbage I had and how long I carried it. If I can do it I know you can. Remember you are not alone we are here to help each other. I believe in you because God made you special just like He did me. Happy tossing.

Excerpt from AN UNSPEAKABLE SECRET
Changing one's way of thinking about oneself is important. Most people I have come across who have been abused have a poor self-image. The degradation of the abuse helps feed this kind of image. There is hope. You can by the help of God, change the image you have of yourself. It involves self-talk in a positive way. We are used to telling ourselves how bad we are, but we need to start telling ourselves how good we are. If there are things about yourself you don't like and you can change them, then change them. It you cannot change them, learn to accept them and go on.

HOLD ON
I had a great interview with Cyrus Webb last night it again reminded me how fortunate I am to have such supporting people in my life. I would not be where I am today without my loving spouse and sons. That is not to down play what my therapist and good friends have done. But these guys are the people I lived with every day they helped me through many difficult times that seemed impossible. I know not everyone is as blessed as I am. I would like for you to know people like me are out here for you to help in your journey if you just reach out your hand and let us hold onto it as you walk your path. We need each other along life's walk so reach out. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!

Are You Worhtwhile?
Many people have a low self-image. We think we are who others say we are, when in fact their view of us might be very wrong. It is easy to see good qualities and values in other people, but when it comes to who we are, the tables can get turned. Our vision is sometimes colored by what hides deep inside. My workbook "Who Me? Worhtwhile? Yes, You!" is designed to help us take a deep look into what makes us the people we are. Looking in Scripture helps us to reevaluate who we are in God. It gives us the hope and help needed to better our lives. God is there in all that we go through. He can, will, and does help us live through events thought to be too tough to handle. He changes us in ways we only thought we could dream would happen. He give us value beyond measure. He is the one who ultimately measures our worth. Check out my workbook because the answer to the question is a big YES YOU ARE WORTHWHILE!! Believe it, claim it, hold onto it and don't let
anyone ever tell you different. When in doubt ask God. He will always give you the right answer He does not lie.
