Dedication and Thank You…
This book is dedicated to my daughters, whom I pray grow up to be strong women of God fearing the Lord.
Sydni, Miyoko, and London, I hope you will draw nearer to God and His ways, being the women you were destined to be. In the womb, I prayed that wherever you go and whomever you meet that God would be seen in you. God has already answered that prayer, and I pray He continues.
Love you…
Thank you to my mother-in-law, Evangelist Hall, for your wisdom, knowledge, love, and friendship. Thank you for writing this book with me. I look forward to continual growth with you. Thank you to my husband, who constantly inspires and encourages me. Thank you to my mother, Loretta, for giving me a foundation of Christ. I appreciate your love and friendship. When I was young, you taught me that God can do anything, but fail. I know without a doubt that this is true, and I teach this to my girls---generational blessings.
Thank you to my editor for your heart to take on this project and share your gift. I look forward to working with you more in the future and watching lives change together.
To God Be the Glory…

Letter to You:
First, thank you so much for your support and for your time and interest in this book and topic. This book began as a way to help strengthen relationships between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law. However, following God’s guidance, it evolved into what you will experience today. May you enjoy reading and learning from the Word and those in the Bible who came before us.
Open your heart and allow God to speak to you and show you who you are, but also who and what you can be. He believes in you as a woman…just look at Genesis and how He made you in His own image. Whenever life gets challenging and the roles you’ve been given seemingly impossible, know you were made for a purpose in the image of Our Great Creator, Almighty God.
Thank You…
