I Will Arise!: Inspiring Hope, Worth, and Possibilities...

Dr. Hall's experiences as an abused wife was the soil in which earlier planted seeds of hope, value, optimism, and possibility took root, growing into a strong plant she recognizes as empowered and free. Her passion to encourage other women by sharing her story would not be but for knowing the richness, depth, and texture woven into the fabric of her life by facing head-on obstacles designed to break her will and insure personal defeat. She hoped against all hope and after doing all she could do, she just stood. These keys to her success she offers to others as the keys to their success. This book repeats what we intuitively know, yet fail to intentionally act upon-women are special to God; that's why He created us the way we are. Our roles do not define us; they only identify what we do. What others pronounce over us, about us, to us does not define us. And believe it or not, what we say to ourselves do not define us. Our true self is only revealed as we wholeheartedly embrace God's definition of who we are-His royal daughters, formed and shaped in His infinite mind destined to fulfill His purpose for our existence. Our journey to finally exhale and accept God's image of ourselves for ourselves is the message of Dr. Hall's book. While we may have little control over the soil in which the seeds of our lives are planted, there comes a defining moment in our lives when we must choose, take responsibility for what types of fertilizers we will add to the soil. The chapters explain the fertilizers needed to make the seeds of our lives grow into strong empowered and free plants...
