GOD, WHY ME?
When the dream looks nothing like your reality.
There’s a quiet pain most people won’t talk about.
It’s the feeling of being called, but also forgotten.
Of hearing God speak something big, and then waking up in a life that looks small.
Of knowing you were made for more… but watching everything fall apart instead of come together.
That’s what God, Why Me? was born from.
Not just one loss — but years of compound grief, spiritual silence, betrayal, and confusion.
I should be further along...
If I’m honest, that sentence haunted me:
I should be further along in life.
I should have more money.
I should be married by now.
I should have recovered by now.
I should feel more confident, more qualified, more seen...
But I didn’t.
Instead, I was rebuilding my life in silence.
I was grieving the sudden death of my father.
I had just been evicted.
I was recovering from emergency fibroid surgery.
I was betrayed.
I was holding the weight of dreams that felt further than ever.
And I kept asking God:
Why would You show me visions of greatness… only to let me feel buried in brokenness?
For the one who feels behind...
This is for the woman who’s successful in public but dying privately.
The man who shows up strong for everyone else but feels forgotten by God.
The parent who’s sacrificing for everyone but silently asking, “When is it my turn?”
The entrepreneur who’s obedient but constantly overlooked.
The believer who’s battling the same health issue, the same heartbreak, the same spiritual drought.
You’re not alone.
And you’re not wrong for asking:
“God, why me?”
When God doesn’t stop the breaking...
I’ve learned that God doesn’t always stop the storm.
Sometimes, He lets it hit — not to destroy you, but to reveal what’s unshakable within you.
God didn’t stop the eviction, but He made sure I wasn’t homeless.
God didn’t stop the surgery, but He gave me another chance to live.
God didn’t stop the betrayal, but He protected the version of me I was becoming.
God didn’t answer my question right away — but He walked with me through it until the pain became purpose.
It’s deeper than a devotional...
God, Why Me? isn’t just something you read and forget.
it’s a tool for spiritual healing, emotional restoration, and practical strategy.
It walks with you through your most honest questions and equips you with the tools to:
Reconnect with God in your lowest moments
Rebuild your identity with scripture and spiritual truth
Process pain with prayer, writing, and presence
Make space for healing in your body, mind, finances, and relationships
Bible Verse:
“And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace… will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.”
— 1 Peter 5:10
Getting closer to God is the key.
Healing isn’t just emotional — it’s spiritual alignment.
The closer I got to God, the more I realized…
I wasn’t cursed.
I wasn’t forgotten.
I was being refined for something greater.
When you walk closely with God, your pain becomes revelation.
You begin to see your story differently — not as a setback, but as strategy for your next.
This is your turning point.
My new ebook, God, Why Me?, was written for those moments.
The nights you cried.
The seasons you thought would never end.
The times you started over… again.
The years you gave everything and had nothing left.
The moments you gave God your “yes” — and life still felt like punishment.
This book is a spiritual companion, a mirror, and a strategy manual.
You’ll find stories, guided prayers, journal prompts, and faith tools to help you not just heal — but rebuild.
For your health.
For your relationships.
For your money.
For your calling.
For your peace.
This is for the one who’s ready to walk with God again — even if you’re limping.
