Triumph Ruth Crawford

Life is a rollercoaster. You know it. I know it. The devil knows it. If you have not experienced life as a rollercoaster yet, keep living and you will. The devil loves to use the little he knows about the frailties of human life on this side of eternity to trick us out of triumph. You or people close to you are riding this roller coaster we call life and when, suddenly, it dips or takes a turn for what feels like the worst, the first thought that comes to mind is, "... Will I ever come back up again? Will this ever end?" If you are not careful the devil will turn doubt into negative thinking where you decide, "My life is over, this is the end," or "I guess this is my life". When you get to such a stage, you just stop moving. There is something I always say, my editor brought to my attention: "Moving forward... Moving on''. You see, I intentionally start almost every chapter in this way. Why? Because all you need to do is keep moving. The bible says in Ecclesiastes 9:4 that as long as there is life, there is hope! The good news is there are others, like myself, who have been on this ride before. There is already a blueprint in place! There are biblical studies where others before you learned how to triumph over tragedy. There are true stories in the bible about people like you and me who experienced betrayal, loss, infidelity and other traumatic events, but guess what? They survived! Not only did they survive, they overcame, triumphantly. There are also those in the Bible whose ending did not turn out so great. Their stories are available for us to learn from so that we don't have to make the same mistakes. My book, Triumph! is another opportunity for you to experience the truth- triumph is always an option! You can win! You can help others to win! Join me as I go back in time and spill all the tea with you about the lessons I learned in friendships, marriage, divorce, motherhood, careers, wealth and financial investments, social constructs and so much more! I am warning you that some of what you read will not be easy. There may definitely be some triggering moments. I advise you as you read, take breaks! Take a sip of tea, maybe read it with some friends or you can decide to read alone if that's better for you. But rest assured that at the end of every chapter, there is an answer of peace for you and most importantly, there is the opportunity for you to triumph at every stage of your journey in life. Be blessed as you read!
