Summary

I grew up under strict Jamaican-style spankings and lies, desperate for freedom πŸ’”. At 17, I swallowed an entire bottle of migraine pills with scotch in a bid to escapeβ€”even my stepmother’s timely rescue felt like a miracle πŸ™. Years later, as a heartbroken single mother, I whispered a prayer for helpβ€”and a chance encounter led me back to church and the Bible πŸ“–. Confronted with God’s loving boundaries, I traded empty rebellion for true freedom, and on September 13 1996, I was baptized in the Caribbean Sea 🌊✝️.

Growing up, my parents’ extreme restrictions drove me to become very rebellious. I desperately wanted to be free.

But, how I sought freedom almost killed me.

After years of heartbreak, I finally realized that my way of living wasn’t working…

I needed God.

By His grace, He forgave me of my sin and rescued me from my empty way of life!
