Book Description
Pain doesn’t last always Sometimes only for a night Try not to resist It hurts the more we fight Overcoming life’s difficulties is daunting. At times, it seems the burdens that we bear are too painful to overcome. They keep us from even trying to accomplish the things we want most. It seems the only way to outlast the pain is to ignore it, when, in truth, the only way to discover the unlimited potential inside of us all is to embrace the pain, face the Authentic Self at our core, and use the strength therein to triumph over any obstruction in our way. Based on his powerful, true journey from a childhood rife with poverty, incarceration, addiction and rage to the successful adult life he achieved, award-winning performer, writer, and motivational speaker Daniel Beaty presents the tools that readers need to overcome any obstacle and tap into their full capabilities. By outlining an alternative mode of thinking, especially for the modern African-American man bombarded by negative stereotypes in the media, Beaty empowers the individual and encourages readers of all backgrounds to learn from their cultural and family heritage while forgiving and letting go of the negative so that only the positive remains. Beaty’s story, supported by deeply personal advice from notable mentors such as Bill Cosby, Leontyne Price, Sydney Poitier, Ossie Davis, and Ruby Dee, serves as a strong reminder that success is ultimately possible, not in spite of struggles but as a result of lessons learned and power drawn from those lessons.

Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
Infertility can make you question your womanhood. The struggle to conceive or the pain of being told you cannot conceive can leave you feeling a major void. Dealing with no longer being able to physically conceive, carry, and birth a child causes emotions and thoughts for which we can never truly prepare. You will search for answers and dig deep to find a way to, proverbially, touch the hem of Jesus's garment to be healed. But what if your healing does not come the way you expect? What if your only option for a better quality of life involves permanent infertility? What do you do? How do you overcome the pain? Can you ever live in power and with purpose, despite your condition?The end of our suffering does not always manifest itself the way we think it should. Rather than looking at the end as a curse, or punishment, or something being wrong with you, we must see the end as a means to a new beginning - a healthy life and the ability to live freely and without shame. Regardless of what we experience, we must be coffee beans. Coffee is made by running hot water over the beans or by steeping the beans for hours in cold water. It's not the beans that are changed, but it's the water. Many times in life, in order to change our environment, we must face adversity - much like a coffee bean being submerged in hot water, it's not what you go through, it's how you use the adversity to your advantage in order to change your environment.In Power in My Pain, entrepreneur and minister Danielle Wright shares her personal journey and struggles with infertility and how, after 27 years of excrutiating physical and emotional pain, she decided to put it to an end. The story is focused on conveying that she is a Christian who holds firm to her faith, but she had some very hard times as she trekked this journey. She details the necessity of having support as well as the necessity to do what is absolutely best for yourself when you're faced with a chronic illness, and how this helps you live life shamelessly and victoriously. Danielle teaches that you can convert your pain into power when you embrace the fact that an infertile womb does not equate to infertile dreams.Danielle provides five ways she found power in the pain of infertility and learned to live confidently, shamelessly and victoriously.-Become your greatest advocate-See your healing differently-Admit you want to give up sometimes-Stop talking about your problems and speak about solutions-Develop a Faith, Focus, Forward, Finish mentalityTake control of your health - mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually - when you find the power in your pain.

Pages : 130
Book Description
This book is written from my heart. My life changed before it began at the age of 5 or 6 years old when I was raped by a friend of the family, and I wasn't believed. This caused me to go into a shell and lose my inner voice. I was instantly overtaken with fear of what had happened to me. The damage done to me caused me to have to relearn how to walk. I continued to experience pain from an early age before I could enjoy life. This book allows me the opportunity to talk to you about being taken away from my mother and being separated from my siblings; how I endured so much pain, shame, fear, self-doubt, and a lot of confusion; dreaming of being that little girl growing up playing with Barbie dolls and one day being a model, and how that didn't happen for me. I endured so much pain from my childhood to my adulthood. I pray my book reaches every person who is reading it and it touches you like it has touched me. I can now speak and share my story about all the pain that I endured as a child on up into my adulthood. I could not have done any of this without God. I prayed and asked God to heal me, and He did. I lost my inner voice at the age of 5 years old. I found my inner voice at the age of 32 years old. I endured so much pain for 27 years. God delivered me from my pain on September 4, 2020. I found God. My Pain is My Power. I am using my voice to help and empower so many women and children like myself. I pray that you all be well and blessed and that my book touched you. God uses His weakest people and molds us into becoming His strongest people. Even though Fear was instilled in me as a child, I choose Faith over Fear. I survived and came out the other side.
