Tomorrow is not promised. Time is of essence.

I am moving forward as a woman who knows her worth. I will not allow another relationship to make me question my value, my identity or the woman You created me to be.

Iam beautifully and wonderful made. GOD CHOSEN AND  CALLED. 

I am praying for the right man the man You have kept for me, my soon-to-be husband.
