8It is a luxury to be born in a country where you are guaranteed the freedom to make decisions for yourself--a luxury that many people don't know. There are populations who live their lives in fear, sadness, and isolation, too imprisoned by their culture to flourish. There are women who would rather die than stay chained to a life not picked by their hand-a husband not picked by their hand. In Providence by Bose Williams, readers will come to know the painful truth of what it looks and feels like to be born in Africa during the misogynistic era that Williams' parents were born into. See how it takes boldness, courage, and fearless faith to fight for one's beliefs, even if it means going against deep-rooted customs that rob countless men and women of the joys that they so deserve. Williams unflinchingly faces the traitorous human capacity for greed, jealousy, and guilt that drives individuals mad with insatiable need. Yet, it is through this ugliness that Williams traces "God's unseen hand" throughout her life journey, trusting in His divine truth. She forgives herself and rids her heart of the shame that has plagued her adulthood and celebrates the goodness of God in all phases of her life. She prays that every reader will come to the same conclusion--that God created each of us "for a purpose, on purpose, with a purpose" all for His glory alone! More to come from Williams as she is also working on her follow up title in the series- Providence:2
