Elie BPrior to bringing this book to fruition, I grappled with my innermost thoughts and emotions. I found myself wrestling with feelings of guilt and shame, as the prospect of revealing my personal life and exposing the actions of those who had caused me ain weighed heavily on my conscience. Being a somewhat private person by nature, the idea of sharing my story with the world was a daunting one, and I resisted it fiercely for years. I was consumed by a fear of judgement, fear of criticism, fear of how others would perceive me and react to my truth. However, in the end, I came to realise that there was no use in trying to reason with my Creator. After all, He knows us better than we know ourselves, and His plans for us often transcend our own understanding. Through dreams and even the subtle signs and messages conveyed in everyday occurrences, my spiritual team made it abundantly clear to me that this was something I was called to do. Reminding me time and time again that I need not fear, for they would be with me every step of the way, guiding and protecting me as I embarked on this journey of vulnerability. When I first sat down to write, I grappled with a sense of inadequacy - I had never been particularly adept at writing, recalling the anxiety I felt in high school when faced with a mere 500-word essay. It soon became evident that this endeavour was not of my own making, but rather a divine calling from God Himself. This realisation humbled me, for I felt ill-equipped for such a task. However, as the saying goes, "He qualifies the called." As I poured my heart and soul into the pages of this book, I came to understand that it was not about me, it was about allowing God to work through me, using my story as a vessel for His divine purpose.
