About Misinterpreted Signs

Writing Misinterpreted Signs was a hard task for me because I would write and then stop and then start back again to stop again. It was hard to write because I had to go back over almost every type of abuse I endured by my ex-husband. I had to get police reports, and restraining orders to help me write this book.

I was young and wanted to marry at a very young age. I lived a fantasy through T.V. thinking that one day I will have true love like they did and that the person I would marry will share the same Christian values that I shared. However, I got the complete opposite of what I prayed for and I thought it was from God. I use to read my bible and thought that I had to go through and suffer because I am a Christian. It was not until I was much more wiser in the word to see that I made myself suffer.

As I read some passages in the bible, I realized that I was very immature to the word of God. But now since I know better I do better.

1 Corinthians 2:12-14 states Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.  And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. 

When I read my bible with a immature mind I thought God sent me that abusive relationship. I thought I had to go through just to get my happily ever after. However, that man was not who God had in store for me. I was too in my own self that I put myself with that person and endured nothing but heartache and pain. I wrote this book for a testimony for others, I wrote this to help bring others to Christ, I wrote this because there is also abuse in the church that is silently kept and it is time to speak up.
