Published Author

I published a book called Whisper of Love—A Divine Encounter, which was released on April 1, 2025, on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Walmart. It is meant to encourage people facing hardships in life to know there is hope in God. I aim to help people understand their purpose and destiny on earth. There are several powerful and moving stories of how God used me to save a girl from suicide, and another woman to be reconciled to her mother after 12 years of running away from home.
