About the bookSalvation, what is salvation? It is the rescue from sin and death to life. How do we know we need salvation? We need it, because we were all born into a sinful world and are living in a world headed for death. For the Salvation of My Sisters is about understanding this truth through the eyes of young women in the world today. It is to help them understand that they are not alone, that the women of the bible went through the same things we experience now in our earthly lives. It is to help them learn that God is in control of all things and that in Him there is life, love, protection, joy, and hope for a brighter future. It is to help them understand that they are special to God and that He wants His best for them. Young women in the world have so much to contend with that they sometimes get caught up in things that God never meant for them to experience, like molestation, abuse, drugs, drinking, immoral sex acts, and prostitution. They are made to feel less than equal with their male counter parts, yet God made them in the same image as Him, just like He made man. Through this book, young women will find out that they are on equal ground with all of God’s creation, that there is life in Christ for them to live in abundance, and that God loves them very much and wants his best to be done in their lives. They will come to understand God and his plan of salvation for their lives so that they can be heaven bound. They will learn of the women in the bible who faced many of the same obstacles and situations they face and how they were rescued from them through trusting and obeying God. They will learn how to trust God in making the best decisions concerning their life, love, jobs, and children. Whatever their need is, God has a plan for them.Many of us are walking around saying, “God is good all the time and all the time God is good,” yet for as many saying it, most don’t believe it. What we have to understand is that, yes, God is good even when we are going through something. We think God has no clue that we are suffering, hurting, crying, sick, broken hearted, physically and mentally drained, beaten down and fed-up. We think God does not love us, doesn’t care about us, and has forgotten about us, because our life is not going according to our plan. The thing is God’s plan is different from ours. We may have to give what we think we don’t have, we may have to help who we don’t want to help. We may have to pray when we fill like God is not listening, we may have to love those we want to hate. God’s plan requires that we stretch further than we ever have before. God’s plan calls for us to give up all of ourselves to know Him. It pushes us to the outside of the box when we want to hold on to the rim of the box. It tells us to trust Him when we don’t feel Him or hear Him. His plan tells us to turn from who we use to be into who He has called us to be, true children of the living God. This book is a labor of love for my own young daughters who are now grown and living life for God. Since I came to know the love of God I have prayed for them to come to know Him in a great and mighty way. God is working in their life and I am so pride of how they are changing into the godly women that He can use to make a difference in the kingdom of God. I pray that whoever receives this book will grow and understand that God loves you so much that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, that you may have life to the fullest. I pray that you will listen to what you hear God speak to you through these words and let Him change you into the beloved of God, for you desire His best and He desires all of you, spirit, mind, soul, body, and heart, in Jesus name, Amen.Psalm 91:15-14 The Lord says, I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call Me, I will answer. I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them My salvation.
