About Me

I think one familiar short, yet most powerful statement a believer can say is "I’m “Walking by Faith”. At my age, I have been through countless storms, some small and some big. Nonetheless , my faith continues to carry me through. This is my life’s testimony. The world wants you to believe that there is something wrong with a life like mine because I've gone through and I’m still going through. They want you to believe that if you have what the Jones’s have then you are living a fulfilled life. Pretty funny, huh? Well, I walk by faith, and I know I’m God’s best. That should be fulfilling enough, and God is still completing me as I happily tell my story about how more complete my life is. As you walk by faith, you will be strengthened. You need to understand that challenges are merely new opportunities for you to reach your greatness. Finally, know that your life will truly be blessed when everything that you touch will provide you with a blessed life and no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. "Whatever I go through, whatever happens, "Either Way I Win"; whether God heals me here on earth, or heals me by calling me home to be with Him, "Either Way I Win"!

Even sheep know how to impress with the dress of a wolf.


“You're going to meet many people with domineering personalities: the loud, the obnoxious, those that noisily stake their claims in your territory and everywhere else they set foot on. This is the blueprint of a predator. Predators prey on gentleness, peace, calmness, sweetness and any positivity that they sniff out as weakness. Anything that is happy and at peace they mistake for weakness. Their passion is to add you to their belt of accomplishments and don’t care who they hurt. They break up homes, marriages, relationships without any remorse. They will use and abuse you. Married or not they brag about their accomplishments and feed off of disrespect. Their characteristics are being egotistical, narcissist and even cocky.

 They will go to great lengths to befriend even if it is using someone, if you fit the description of what they think is weak; predators want to have friends that they can dominate over because that makes them feel strong and important, they always want people to like them, fear rejection and never want to be alone. The truth is that predators have no strength and no courage. It is you who are strong, and it is you who has courage. Be strong, be made of silk and keep the Lord who will save you from those stalkers. Stay encouraged in the Lord and He will open up your eyes and show you everything you need to know. James Cruse
