Tashauna3 Comments

Back then when they had an altar call at church, I would almost always be in it. I never prayed for money, just peace in my marriage at the time, and for extended patience and strength. Except for this one time during altar call when I was asked, what are you asking God for? Honestly, two seconds before she asked I had no clue why I was up there.

It took years for me to realize that God never turned his back on me throughout my ordeal, but was in fact there with me all along.
