EBONY'S Confessions
Life has taught me to value each day as a gift from God and not to squander it away on foolishness. I’ve learned firsthand that sin is a persistent force, seeking to destroy, regardless of gender and ethnicity. Sometimes you have to go through trials to appreciate God’s grace and mercy.
I won’t bore you with a repetition of words or events from my last confession. Instead, I’ll tell you the events that led up to the worst moment I can remember— that morning when all I could do was cry out in horror. You may ask why I didn’t tell you all of this in the beginning. Well, my rebuttal would be, when do we ever do things completely right? Be patient with me and I’ll tell you everything.
Let’s start from the beginning, shall we?
