A gift opens the way
and ushers the giver into the presence of the great. ~ Proverbs 18:16
One thing you may not know about me is that although I am the founder of the Better Woman Better Wife (BWBW) ministry, I am also a nurse by profession. As a nurse and nurse educator, one of the hardest things for me to see is a student that cannot complete his/her education due to financial hardship. That is why, as the CEO and Founder of Better Woman Better Wife, I have started a BWBW Scholarship Foundation to help nursing students in need.
I remember a time when I was fresh out of high school, 17 years old with a 1 yr. old son, and due to financial hardship, I had to drop out. It was not until I was in my mid 30's, that I was able to return to school and acquire and associate degree in Office Administration. A few years later I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and four years after that a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) ... praise be to God …. won't he do it! In April 0f 2023 i walked across the stage in Homewood, AL at Samford University to receive my Doctorate in Nursing Administration. God is faithful!
I remember going back to school in my 30's for my BSN this time married. I was in a very toxic marriage and wanted out, however, I could not get out. I had no money, nowhere to go and very little hope, but God. When God's name is behind the conjunction but …. there is hope! There was a women's organization giving away scholarships for WOMEN facing financial hardship. I remember filling out the application and praying to God to move on my behalf. He did and I received a scholarship that would assist me for the next two trimesters. This scholarship not only allowed me to finish school, but it gave me a new beginning in life. It helped me to start over by reinventing myself.
This is the reason why I want to pay it forward!
I know what it feels like for your mind to tell you to do better, but your pocketbook disagrees.
