Download or read book I Choose Me written by Tanya Powell and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people will tell you I abandoned my children; others will say I made a bold decision to put myself first. How does a stay-at-home mother of three decide to take her daughter and abandon her sons? Leaving my sons with a controlling, abusive, and narcissistic man causes a lot of people to question your parenting abilities. Good mothers do not leave their children. Good mothers put family first. In my memoir: I Choose Me, I explore the various myths women have been told since childhood about sex, marriage, abortion, love, and children. The story presents the notion to women, "What if you choose yourself?" Women are told to wait to be asked for marriage. Society tells wives to eat last and feed their husbands first. Our mothers teach us that a good mother puts her children before herself, but what if you put yourself first? Are you a bad person, mother, and wife? After years of abuse, and sacrifice I realized that I am as equally important as any member in my household. I chose to leave my husband, thus leaving my two sons. I saw me in my two-year-old daughter. I saw 22 years into the future. My daughter searching for a hero, only to be rescued by a monster. Yes, I left my sons. I didn't abandon them, but I did leave them with their father. I received a lot of backlash allowing my 10- and 12-year-old sons to decide if they wanted to start over a new life with their mother or stay in their big house with maids and unlimited resources. I regret that decision every day, and I will for the rest of my life. I realize that no one really knows what the best decision is when it comes to raising children, and divorce. What matters is that my children forgave me, and I forgave myself.

Download or read book Did God Choose Me A Study on Biblical Election written by Steven D. Rhodes and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-04-20 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a Bible study on biblical election (God's choosing of His believers). It is a study dealing with people's choices in light of God's choices and sovereignty. Many questions arise from this subject: Do I exercise my will, or is everything predetermined? Do I have a "free" will? How does God's sovereignty really work? Am I just a puppet with God pulling the strings? Can I truly love God if my will isn't really "free"? How does God's "foreknowledge" apply to my salvation? How much involvement do I really have in my own salvation? These are difficult questions to be sure. We can observe the Bible dealing with this subject from two very different perspectives: The horizontal perspective: Mankind's perspectives and actions. The exercising of people's will and choices as they participate in life and relationships around them. The vertical perspective: God's perspective and actions, outside of people's perceptions. It requires God revealing these things in His Word for us to know about them. The book deals with the obvious occurrence of people exercising their wills (which is observable - the horizontal perspective). It also looks at what the Bible reveals to us about what God may be doing behind the scenes (which cannot be observed - the vertical perspective). Even though a few illustrations and analogies are included, this book relies heavily on the topic as dealt with from the pages of the Word of God.
