Embrace the Unexpected

Archives Available on VoiceAmerica Empowerment Channel

Dare to embrace something different in your life journey. It may be something you never expected, and then taking that unexpected or tragedy in life, turning it into helping others and worship in thanking God for guiding you through. My unexpected was having a son with autism but God healed my sorrows and led me to write a story about our journey. Let us together inspire, encourage to move forward even in the mist, of a storm, to give hope and become an advocate for someone who can’t speak for themselves.
