Hello World

This new technology caught me off guard. My daughter Monique, informed me that I needed a blog. After doing some research I knew she was right. So you will see that sometimes I am a little slow at the gate, but eventually I get it. This is my introduction to the world. Since this is my first time, some posts may be long and others short. So here we go.

Since the airing of Escape from Jonestown, my life has transitioned once again. From the first three hours my website http://www.slaveryoffaith.com/ was linked to the CNN Presents website the emails began to arrive. I was amazed and surprised. As I began to open the first few, tears filled my eyes as I was not expecting the emails to be so personal, so open or honest. All of a sudden I cried out to the Creator saying “you were right, they wanted and needed to hear, I can help to change lives” and my transition began again. For now I realized that people were reaching out to me to hear the story and to line themselves with Faith in a simple everyday person who happened to have been through a lot of craziness in her life.

The responses have humbled me and affirmed the fact that the story had to be told. When I think back to Jonestown, I realized how fortunate I was to be able to live to tell the story. Those last month’s I was detached in order to keep going. My mind was tired and so was my body; but I knew if I reached that dark abyss the hopelessness would take over. I could not have made it through. You either move in Fear or Faith. Fear stops you –a paralysis sets in, so you stay in the same place. It’s as if you can’t breathe and you may have an accelerated heart rate – but you know it is fear you just have not been able to move past it. It also tells the universe that you are not trusting. Now Faith is knowing and believing that circumstances can and will change, even though you have no idea how that will manifest. A declaration of belief.

Fear is what is crippled me, but as soon as I put a good faith effort forward I was amazed at the blessings,as God rewarded me for finally seeking a purposeful and meaningful life. Faith is the break through that barrier it is wide open with blessings over abundant.

In the Game of Life Faith Wins

Peace, Blessings and always Universal Love
