Having drunk too much on his return he searched for a woman to satisfy needs too long denied. Seeing a beautiful slave, he lead her away, dismissing the pleas of the young girl who walked with her. At his father’s house the next day, Christina heard her name called out and was not prepared for what she heard. “For ten years I have traveled, Father, and for ten years I have prayed for Christina Etton’s death.

Jen and Riley have been best friends since kindergarten. As adults, they remain as close as sisters, though their lives have taken different directions. Jen married young, and after years of trying, is finally pregnant. Riley pursued her childhood dream of becoming a television journalist and is poised to become one of the first Black female anchors of the top news channel in their hometown of Philadelphia. But the deep bond they share is severely tested when Jen’s husband, a city police officer, is involved in the shooting of an unarmed Black teenager. Six months pregnant, Jen is in freefall as her future, her husband’s freedom, and her friendship with Riley are thrown into uncertainty. Covering this career-making story, Riley wrestles with the implications of this tragic incident for her Black community, her ambitions, and her relationship with her lifelong friend.

The positioning of this book JWJ centers around how, after surviving multiple years of uncertainty as a world, we are all reprioritizing what is important to us--thinking of our life's Journey overall as an ongoing adventure with a purpose. As humans, we must live the life we were created for, and we ALL have the power to make a difference in this world right where we are, with Jesus at the helm. You will read about the amazing things that God has done both in my life as well as many others to not only provide and sustain us but to BLESS us in both good and seemingly bad situations.

And that's an amazingly hard place to be...BUT THERE IS ALWAYS LIGHT. Let's prepare for all things unknown by staying positive now and allowing God to intervene and support the then. Your relationship with God can make it a very different experience because truth is, we don't always know the beauty that can result from difficult and seemingly bad situations--but GOD DOES! Read on and be inspired, and more importantly, let this inspiration equip you to face life's challenges with the joy in knowing that God has a better plan for your life. Everyone is given different challenges, and some are directly based on the choices we've faced and decisions we have made with our gift of free will. Find true purpose and your legacy by building your relationship with the living God today, and let your Journey begin. Jesus came so you might enjoy your life most abundantly (John 10:10).
