Story Behind The Book
At an early age in my life, I had a clear understanding of my sexuality. I had my first girl friend at the age of five and throughout my whole life, I have always had the desire to one day get married, have kids and live happily ever after. I had the perfect examples to follow; my dad and mom. They were the loved ones that taught me that marriage was forever. However, later in life when I did get married, I soon found that it was not as easy as one had pictured. It’s not that marriage isn’t easy, it’s just that I did not have all the tools to do it right. It wasn’t until after I had failed at my second marriage that I did some real soul searching and really started looking at the Word of God concerning marriage and the rest of my life. Let me just say that I have nothing against marriage; I even plan on doing it again; this is why I have written this book. It was planted by God in me and I gave birth to it. This book contains a lot of healthy information that can help you open your eyes and your heart to your marriage if you’re married and relationships if you are planning on getting married. In this book, I will share a few stories about me and will breakdown that art of being happy and making it through marriage. Though some of the materials in this book may be funny at times, it is meant to minister to you and help you. I hope that you will enjoy reading “Finding Your Rib”.
