MY STORY:

For most of my life, I lived outside looking in.

I was the girl who never quite fit the mold. The one who was overlooked, misunderstood, talked about, and quietly pushed aside. From childhood into adulthood, rejection followed me like a shadow--at school, at work, in friendships, even in places where I longed to belong. I learned early how to smile through heartbreak and pretend I was strong while silently questioning my worth. 

Rejection shaped how I saw myself. It taught me to shrink. It taught me to stay silent. It taught me settle, and to lie ("let's be real"). And for a long time, I believed the lie that I was "to much" for some and "not enough" for others.

Behind closed doors, I battled, insecurity, loneliness, and deep emotional wounds. I tried to earn love. I tried to prove my value. I tried to become whatever I thought people would accept. But no matter how hard I tried, the emptiness remained.

Then one day---when I was emotionally drained and spiritually empty from the pain I still deal with from my car accident, trying to do ministry, church hurt, and all the other negative things that life brings I said Lord I'm tired of this help me to understand because i sincerely don't get it--I prayed that prayer and my encounter with Jesus Christ changed my whole perspective about my life.

I didn't meet Him in perfection. I meet Him in BROKENNESS.

I came to Him tired of pretending, tired of performing, tired of carrying pain I was never meant to carry alone. And in the darkest place of my life, I discovered the brightest truth: Jesus didn't reject me--- He received me.

Where people walked away, He stayed. Where I felt invisible, He saw me, Where I felt unworthy, He called me CHOSEN.

For the first time in my life, I experienced true acceptance-- not based on performance, popularity, or perfection, but LOVE. A love that healed my IDENTITY. A love that restored my voice. A love that taught me I was never rejected-- I was being REDIRECTED.

Through Jesus, I learned my pain had a purpose, My tears had meaning, people laughing didn't matter anymore My story needs to be shared so that it may encourage someone else. 

God began rebuilding me from the inside out. He healed my cracked self-worth. He restored my confidence. He taught me who I really am. He reminded me that rejection was never my ending, it was my beginning.

What once tried to break me became the very thing that built my calling.

And this is how NBM WOMEN WHO RISE was born. 

This ministry is not for every woman but for those who know what rejection feels like you have an advocate who is here to help with no judgement. For the woman who has been overlooked, talked about, abused, abandoned, or misunderstood. The woman who smiles in public but aches in private, the woman who is ready to stop just surviving and start thriving to become her truth.

NBM Exists because I am living proof that rejection does not cancel purpose. Pain does not disqualify calling. And your past does not have the final word.

Jesus transformed my wounds into a message and my rejection into a platform for healing. Let him do the same for you--- heal your HEART.

This ministry is not just my story. It is a movement for every woman who is ready to rise, heal and walk boldly into spiritual acceptance, confidence and purpose.

YOUR REJECTION IS NOT YOUR IDENTITY AND YOUR PAIN IS NOT YOUR DESTINY.

 BE ENCOURAGED TODAY.
