My name is Bridget and I'm a mother of two wonderful teenagers, four sweet angel babies in Heaven, a pomeranian and the wife to my most loving and supportive husband of 18 blessed years. I didn't say that it was 18 easy years but I did say blessed and we are truly blessed of God.I was born to Thelma and Bennie Warren, January of 1973. I have three sisters and one step-sister. At the tender age of two months old, a massive heart-attack took the life of my beautiful and very talented mother. After the death of my mother, I was taken in by Christian grandparent's Mr. and Mrs. Hollie Brumfield, Sr of Roseland, LA and was later adopted by them.. I grew up in the church but later went my own way, which I learned with much heartache, heartbreak and a lot of bad decisions; that my way was the wrong way. At the age of 16 I was sick and tired of living a worldly and unhappy life, so I decided to get baptized but without the true understanding of what the Water Baptism meant. I thought that all of a sudden my life would automatically be transformed....that all the hurt, pain, emotional and sexual abuse, the feeling of being unloved, unwanted, the rejection of family and friends, failures and disappointments would all just fade away. That was farthest from the truth. As a matter of fact, it only got worse. So I went right back to doing the wrong things all over again, even making several attempts to take my own life many, many times but each time I tried I failed. I could not understand how a God that was so loving and caring could allow me to go through so much hurt and pain. I couldn't grasp why God wouldn't allow me to just die so that all my pain, hurt and sufferings would just end.
I had closed my heart to all and wouldn't allow myself to even love again because of all the hurt I had undergone from some many people, even those in the church. But God had a plan for my life. A plan that I would have never thought was possible. He sent me a husband and not just any husband. God sent me a husband that loved and loves me just for me.
I remember there were many cousins who told me that I was an ugly, skinny and dumb girl. They said that no one would ever want me. The Devil is a liar and I realize now that it was the Devil that was using them to tear me down and I allowed it. As I said, God sent me a husband and after he sent me a husband, he blessed my womb with life; he gave me children. God also blessed me with homes, cars and jobs that I didn't qualify for.. What do I have to say to all of those and you know who you are....Those who hated me without a cause, who lied on me, who talked about me, who tried to tear my family apart, who allowed the Devil to use your mouths against me..... What do I have to say to you? LOOK AT WHAT GOD HAS DONE AND IS STILL DOING IN MY LIFE! I may not be yet who God has purposed and pre-destined me to be, But I thank God that I'm not who and what I used to be. I am no longer ashamed.....I'm just going to continue to look to God, lean on God and trust God in all my circumstances. Truly this world has nothing to offer me but God, but God, but God has everything that I want, need and desire. So continue to talk about me, continue to lie on me, continue to send out your threats because my God, my Heavenly Father God has my best interest at heart. He has already assured me that NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST ME SHALL PROSPER., that THROUGH CHRIST I CAN DO ALL THINGS, that I AM MORE THAN A CONQUEROR THROUGH CHRIST JESUS WHO STRENGTHENS ME. My God has promised me that all I have to do is LOOK TO THE HILLS FROM WHENCE COMETH MY HELP because all my help comes from the LORD. So no matter what people might say about me or think of me, I always know and have hope that MY GOD WILL ALWAYS, ALWAYS HAVE MY BACK. You see because of CHRIST, I AM THE HEAD AND NOT THE TAIL, I AM ABOVE AND NOT BENEATH, I AM THE LENDER AND NOT THE BORROWER. Thank you Jesus! Thank you Jesus!I will always stand on God's word and hold to what he told me through it all....DO NOT BE OVERCOME BY EVIL; BUT OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD. God has truly given me beauty for ashes and joy for my pain. I can't help but to praise him because he is worthy.I pray that my short testimony will some how be a blessing to someone else. That was only a portion of God's goodness, the things he has allowed me to go through and how he has brought me out. If I shared my true testimonies with all of you, you wouldn't be able to handle it. So until then, get right with God, be Real and be blessed. The Best Is Yet To Come!
