This blog post is a little bit different. As I was putting together my bio for Clubhouse (a new audio social app) I decided to share my testimony based on a general timeline of events. The purpose is to share with others what I have overcome with Jesus leading my life.
What I have survived that should have killed me when I could not humanly fathom the brighter side of the pain. BUT GOD!

Get to know me
