I have not announced it, but have taken a sabbatical from writing on this blog because I am writing a book. The book is intended to minister to those who have been sexually abused in childhood, and the resultant issues a person may suffer due to this childhood trauma in their physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
I will occasionally be posting as I am going through this process, and you will be the first to know the progress. I humbly ask for your prayers because I need them.
I pray most that this will be a benefit to relationship with God to all who read it, and that the Healer’s will is done in the writing and reading of it.
Thank you for your patience as I take the time to leave a legacy of faith.
I leave you with a list a few of the books, and links to them, that have so blessed me in the healing process. Don’t go through it alone. I highly recommend a Christian counselor to assist you or someone you love in the healing process.

Really y’all I’m just another Samaritan woman seeking living water and pouring out where I see need for encouragement. I am 48, mother to four girls ages 16-26, Gigi to the most handsome 2-year-old little boy, Fibromyalgia warrior, minister, writer, and a lifetime learner.
I am writing my first book, slowly but surely, six chapters in, as our blessed first love has called me to share His glory in my story. I feel lost in that familiar desert place, and thankful for the manna that is there miraculously every day. I am overcoming hour by hour the condemning voices of the enemy and learning to love myself. It has been an arduous journey. This wordsmith journey, but so worth it.
I became a licensed minister in 2010. However, I do not currently work in the ministry. I share Christ's love through devotional blogging. I have a degree in Church Ministry, was pursuing my degree in Christian Care and Counseling at Oral Roberts University, but now am pursuing Life Coaching, and Neurolinguistic Programming Master Practioner Certifications and a business license.
I am a certified women’s biblical counselor through the Extraordinary Women's program at Light University. I am working on their Addiction and Recovery program now too. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment with a wealth of life experiences with which I can minister comfort to others.
I'm a lover of a good book, writing, singing, and music, and my nemesis is the perpetual laundry pile.
Blessings to you and yours,
<3Melinda
