Acknowledgments
I’m forever thankful to God for choosing me and calling me to this place I now am. I know that God truly is love! To my mother and father, Josephine and James Davis Jr.: thank you for loving us and for the sacrifices you’ve made on behalf of your family.
To my husband, Jeffery; my children Jeffery, Jeremy, and Johnathan; my grandchildren Asia and Ashlynn: each of you have truly blessed my life. Danette Dial, Terence Davis, Cameron Davis, Guy Griggs, Mark Davis, Arlinda Davis, Emmanuel Davis, Cumberlan Davis, and my nieces and nephews: we are family, and I’m grateful for every mountain God has brought us over. We know what an awesome God we serve!
My deepest thanks to my editor at Kensington/Dafina, Selena James, for your hard work and all that you do! Through my life’s journey, I’ve been blessed to meet and know some really wonderful people (so many, I can’t name them all here). People like: Bonita Chaney, Rosetta Moore, Vanessa L. Rice, Zelda Miles, Linda H. Jones, Shirley Walker, Stephanie Perry Moore, Thyosis Scott, Melva Jackson, Dr. Askhari Johnson Hodari, Alice Gordon, Tracy Windley, Alease Sims, Gregg Pelt, Laura McClure, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Birmingham Alumnae Chapter, Pat Davis, Lashanda Harris, Dr. Norma McLauchlin, and the Lady Lifers of New Life Bible Church in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
Special thanks to Mary Monroe for blessing me with your kind words. You always make me smile. To Oprah Winfrey: thank you for not only telling but showing us that, “God can dream a bigger dream for you than you can ever dream for yourself.”
I am, and will forever be, grateful to those of you who have been so supportive of what God has placed in my hands to do. Thank you for choosing my books and thanks for spreading the word to others. I truly love, appreciate, and thank God for each of you!
