    Your book, “Speak Life Moments- A Transformational Journey” is amazing in the fact that you used a difficult beginning to be healed with God’s power, love and grace. You came to realize that you are beautiful in God’s eyes (Psalms 139:13-14). I am paraphrasing this verse, but this is what I think. “I am fearfully and wonderfully made by my Father. He took great care in my creation and delights in His work. I am beautiful!”

    Sherry, I’m encouraged that you realized that God had a plan to create you and that you are also beautiful. Your book that I’m reading is both inspirational and powerful. Thanks for sharing your story.

    Sherry your story is very powerful and offers hope to individuals who are in abusive relationships and who have lost their way.

    Sherry, thank you so much for being so transparent in sharing your story. When I first got on a Zoom with you, I could sense the Holy Spirit (I take that back, I sensed it when I saw you over a podcast)! Anyway, I’m appreciative of your story and the difficult things that took place in your past, but that you were able to overcome those things with the best source of strength that we believe everyone needs, Jesus! I too can understand that even as a believer, my concerns weren’t of Godly things but of my own passions and desires which didn’t fulfill! I’m so glad we have free will and I’m also glad that God grabs our attention as Believers and helps us to get our ship back going straight….not like the current one in the Suez Canal (3/21). Thanks again Sherry for sharing your story and I’m thankful that “God’s Grace abounds for you and me.”

    This was such an encouragement to read! I agree – There is hope on the other side of seeking the Father! He saves us from even our own self. When we stumble, when we fail in our own ways and strength, when we fall into unhealthy cycles of existing – He is still there. He does not leave us nor forsake us. He is always there, just a breath away.
    Thank you, Sherry, for this encouragement, sis!

    Sherry, your story is so empowering! It is amazing what love can do….embrace us, support us, abuse us, encourage us, defeat us, or in your case, almost kill us. I am grateful that he released you from his grip and that God embraced you in HIS!

    I am always so amazed at the strength that comes in and through these difficult circumstances. May you always continue to shine in your greatness!!

    Thank you for sharing, I left a abusive marriage years ago the first time he laid hands on. I was 4 months pregnant and with a 3 year old son. Never went back. Praying Women will wait on the Lord before getting involved with anyone who has not called by God to be their soulmate in the Mighty Name of our Lord Jesus Christ Amen. May the Lord Jesus Christ continue to Blessed you more abundantly in His Name Jesus Amen.

    What an awesome story. I love the fact that Sherry was so transparent with her story. I know that it will help many. It reminds me of the Apostle Paul… Romans 1:1. “Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the—here it comes, the theme of the book—”separated to the gospel of God.”

    He was called to be an apostle, a “sent one.” And what was he sent to do? Proclaim God’s message of good news! Share the gospel! He viewed himself as set apart for this task above all others. Whatever else he had to do in life, this one thing held a place of absolute precedence. KEEP SHARING YOUR STORY OF THE GOOD NEWS to help someone ELSE…

    Thank you
