Is God enough? It’s a question her circumstances bring her back to quite often. But over a lifetime, she’s come to the conclusion that not only is God enough, He has to be enough.
As a young child, she didn’t realize her need for God, but she did realize she had a need that wasn’t being met. She was sexually abused when she was seven years old. Her dad walked out on her family when she was eleven. Both left her devastated.
She didn’t understand how God could bring healing, so she spent years trying to heal herself. But nothing was enough to meet her needs. Nothing…

This is my friend Melissa Taylor’s story. Maybe you read her Proverbs 31 Ministries devotion today. This is also the Melissa I talk about in chapter eleven, and the Melissa who is hosting a P31 Online Bible Study with my new book, A Confident Heart.
It’s going to be life-changing. I’ve known Melissa for over 10 years – and love her! She’s the real deal and I’m so honored she chosen my book as her next study. She is an amazing woman and a great group leader! If you are looking for friends to walk alongside as you learn how to stop doubting yourself and start living in the security of God’s promises, please consider joining this online Bible Study group.
Today, I’m announcing a new give-away that will include a copy of my book and a FREE series of Confident Heart Conference Calls that are an optional part of Melissa’s online study. They include 4 calls with Melissa and guests (including me and other women who have a passion for this topic).They normally cost $15 – but I”m giving one of you the whole series for free!

Just signed up for P31 daily devotional this week cause I’m needing more and really struggling with where God has me in life right now. This weeks devotionals have been no accident for me, but little God appointments, and your insight yesterday was no different. I believe your book will be great for helping me deal with life circumstances and can’t wait to jump into the study.
Dear Ms. Renee;
Good daY!
Thank you for your encouragements through your devotions. It really enlightens me.
Ms. Ranee, I am so eager to have your book, A Confident Heart. I really need it to boosts and gives me confident. Because I easily get compare my self to others that I usually see things I dont have, that they have. I hope your book is available here in the Philippines.
Ms. Ranee, I am reaaly hoping to have a copy of your book. I so excited to read it.
Ms. Ranee, Please pray that my Dad Lito will know and have relationship to Jesus. Because my Dad refuse my invitation on going to church and be connected to God.
You know Ms. Ranee, my ever dream is that me and my family members will have true realtionship to Jesus.
I need more faith and believe that God will move in my life and the life of family members.
I’ve enjoyed your emial encouragments so much, and I am planning on buying the books for my sisters and myself right after pay day. such an opportunity for growth in the Lord.
Thanks and may He richly bless you as you share HIs insights for us.
Getting ready to start your Bible Study…God was pulling me towards this book!
I was drawn to read the Proverbs 31 post today, and your words resounded with me and a conversation that I had with a friend last night. I will be forwarding the post to her. I plan to join the online Biblestudy and encourage others about your book. The bullet points of your book, are where I am. I know God has a plan & purpose for who will receive the prizes of this contest. Thank you for the oppurtunity and for the words of truth & encouragement!!
I signed up for the study as soon as it was announced and I have started reading the book. I have the same worry as mentioned above about being able to keep up. There is so much going on in our lives right not and I am struggling with making the time to go before Jesus daily and to read my Bible. I so want to start, participate and complete this study with all these wonderful sisters in Christ. Please, let’s all pray for each other in the next few days that Jesus will strengthen us all and help us make a way to find the time to set aside each day to delve into His word and Renee’s book so that we can put all the doubts behind us and live the rest of our lives with confidence in the woman that He intended for us to be. I am so excited about doing this, I don’t want to fail. God Bless.
