After being labeled for the majority of my life, I was frightened by the things that would occur. It was fear that kept me in my cage. Being sexually abused, abandoned by my father, my childhood was taken away. I even hated to see myself in the mirror, and in my mind, I became a reflection of all the things that I didn't want to see. I never imagined that I would have to endure so much pain, that God would allow my life to become so unpleasant, until I realized that it wasn't about Rose McDonald. It was to be used for his glory.

As you go through the pages of this book, as you go through everyday life challenges, you will hit some barricade that can only control you temporarily There will always be some ups and downs, good and the bad, for his glory. Only God can restore you. If you are tired of being stuck, this is the right book for you. If not, just remember that God didn't and will not break his promise. Even through the pandemic, I still rely on him to carry me. After you have done all you can, just stand and remember that "no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper" (Isaiah 54:17). That is why I am still standing.
