The story of my family's battle with cancer was at one time a heavy burden I carried. My mother, grandmother, and aunt all fell victim to this dreadful disease called cancer. Breast and ovarian cancer to be exact and they leave behind a legacy of uncertainty. According to science, I am at a higher risk of facing the same fate. The numbers don't lie, painting a grim picture of my future. Yet, I refuse to let statistics define my destiny. Instead, I cling to hope and faith, believing in something greater than the odds stacked against me. I find comfort in the words of Jeremiah 29:11, trusting in God's plan for my life and holding onto the promise of a brighter tomorrow.I turn to God as my source of healing and strength. I know that true healing can only come from Him.

When my husband Jeff and I first began our conversations over the phone, he shared with me a profound belief rooted in biblical scripture. He referenced the verse that states, "He who finds a wife obtaineth favor of God." Jeff expressed his conviction that certain challenges I faced would find resolution through our union, and even some illnesses would see improvement or diminishment due to the favor and covering he provided as the head of our household. This belief is deeply rooted in our shared commitment to follow God, with Jeff leading our marriage. As a result, we expected God to release unmerited favor in our relationship. The biblical foundation of our understanding finds resonance in other scriptures that portray marriage as a divine blessing. Jeff's foresight proved accurate; as his wife, I witnessed the cessation of struggles and an overall improvement in various aspects of my life.

Jealousy has always been a topic close to my heart, something that I've felt compelled to explore and understand. I've seen it rear its ugly head in various aspects of life, from personal relationships to professional settings, and it's left me with a burning desire to unravel its mysteries. I find myself constantly confronted with the pervasive presence of envy and jealousy in human interactions. It's like an insidious force lurking beneath the surface, ready to rear its ugly head at any moment. It's a feeling I've dealt with myself at times, and witnessing it in others only amplifies the weariness I feel. I can honestly say, I really don't get jealous often. These emotions seem to serve as catalysts for conflict, as noted in Galatians 5:21, where envy is listed among the works of the flesh. Envy breeds resentment and bitterness, turning friends into enemies and poisoning relationships. It's a mark of unbelievers, according to Romans 1:29, indicating a lack of faith and trust in divine providence.

This book is about trusting God. Trusting God even when nothing makes sense. It's about holding on when defeat whispers. This book chronicles my life from age eight and the journey of experiencing God as a waymaker. All of my life God has made a way out of no way. He has been faithful. Even after the death of loved ones, experiencing loss, financial instability, disappointments and turmoil. I literally lost everything twice. Even through the hardest times, my faith never wavered. I asked God tough questions, but He welcomes our questions. I trust God with my life, my children, my husband, my marriage, my ministry and my soul. He loves me more than I love myself. This book will show you how to trust God. I will show you how to have faith in God. I cannot make you love God or serve God, but I will show you how to use basic steps to exercise your faith and trust in a God you cannot see. God never left me. He is indeed a constant Waymaker. I realize now that to whom much is given, much is required. Our hardships and obstacles in life are prerequisites for restoration, miracles and mountain top experiences. In other words, you will have to go through some things to make it to your purpose and fulfill your destiny.

The education system is evolving rapidly, yet the challenges faced by teachers remain constant. In my 15 years of experience within the education system, ranging from High School Alternative School to K12, Music teacher for an after school grant funded program and higher education with the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, I have witnessed a significant shift in the dynamics of education. Teachers, our unsung heroes, deal with unprecedented challenges in this ever-changing landscape. In this book I will share my thoughts on why I feel teachers are superheroes and why they should be valued by our communities, parents and students. No one is perfect, so the human side of a teacher will always be present. Overall, to heed the call to teach and all that comes with that mantle takes exceptional quality and exceptional ability. Therefore, I metaphorically say, superheroes teach. I will share stories from my childhood, my experience in the School system as well as the stories of other impeccable superheroes.

The stories of business moguls like Warren Buffet, Mary Kay Ash and Magic Johnson fascinated me. All of them have a diversified financial portfolio. They inspired me to want more in life. I was unsure how to do it, but the desire was created. Their unparalleled business acumen and the ability to diversify, creating a myriad of revenue streams, inspired me to envision a life beyond the constraints of financial instability. As someone who had long lived paycheck to paycheck, the realization struck hard - I needed to chart a different course if I ever wanted to break free from the cycle of financial uncertainty. This is the story of my journey, a quest for financial independence and a determination to carve out a path that leads to prosperity based on biblical principles. The realization of changing my life hit me like a lightning bolt during a particularly challenging month. I had just paid my car note, utilities, and other necessities, leaving me with a paltry amount that vanished before I could even catch a breath. The fragility of relying on a single income source became glaringly apparent, and I knew I needed to make a change.

This book was written to inspire and give hope. It was also written to educate. You can find love at any age. I speak directly to widows, widowers and single people in general regarding having courage and faith to love again. My target audience for women would be anyone 35 and older. Specifically, women over 50. Statistics seem to show data that it's harder to find a spouse or love for that matter once you reach a certain age. I am a witness that what God has for you is for you. If he has a spouse for you, it will come to pass. I also speak to the single woman praying for a spouse. I charge you to block out the chatter of society norms and here me please. It does not take long for a man to know if he wants to marry you. Society has duped people into falling for a time frame fallacy. Quite the contrary, men know pretty quickly if you are wifey or not. Every case is different. You should definitely make sure you are certain not to rush into any relationship haphazardly. However, pray and ask God to navigate your path. The bible says He who finds a wife finds a good thing. Women should not pursue men. Women should not be looking for a man, but carry herself in a manner that attracts a quality man. My love story is proof that you should not dismiss a potential soulmate because of the timeframes set by people. I researched the topics and I will share my findings. I will share facts and data as well as biblical scripture and doctrine. I believe in the word of God, so this book will have a strong biblical influence. It's because of God I am married to my soul mate. I know that many people will need more than just the word of God to totally get what I'm trying to convey, so no worries. I will provide that in this book. I chose to title this book "Cuffed '' because it is a term growing in popularity in our culture to mean married, in a relationship, or off the market. Urban dictionary states it means to start an exclusive relationship. People are also referencing "Cuffing Season" as a time when people who are normally single cuff up in the winter. I thought the title would be hip and urban and also an attention grabber for a middle aged fox like myself. I will discuss some pretty heavy things in this book, so being fun and edgy with the title may add balance and interest. I will share a few things in hopes to encourage men and women on this journey of life hoping to be "Cuffed" permanently with their soulmate. I will share my testimony about God sending my Boaz. God blessed me with a wonderful man of God.
