Hey Lady,
I just wanted to say to you that I am so grateful we met and I pray that God would keep us together for the rest of my days. You are such a great example to the girls and I'm really glad that the Lord blessed me with the amazing gift of our friendship.
'Cause girrrll, that trifling depression and low self-image were tryin' to get me! But you came in like a superhero with "JC" on your chest! Thank you Lord!
I just wanted to say I love you and thank you for teaching me to love me. Now, I love me to life because He loved us to death!
You are anointed, beautiful, intelligent and kingdom-necessary. You are a leader and a true lady. You belong to God and He loves you beyond measure! I just thought I'd say to you what you say to me everyday.
Sincerely Grateful,
Steph

A Letter to Depression
Dear Depression:
This letter comes as a MEMO to remind you that WE BROKE UP! Stop calling me, stop bothering my family and don't even think about visiting my kids. And you know how I feel about my kids!! Now God gave me the strength to kill you once in my own life and you should know that I am bigger, stronger and faster than I used to be, thanks to HIM. You don't want to mess with me...I'm not playing! As a matter fact and even more so, you don't want to mess with God...He's not playing and He is my response!!
You were so heavy...like extra rolls on an already huge stomach (#lookinglikebuddha). I don't miss you at all because you, just like low self-image, were never a friend. You seemed like you were keeping me company when really you were just blocking my view.
So, I just wanted to let you know that NOW everyday when I wake up, God reminds me of my purpose and that causes me to keep moving forward. So, I didn't need to kill myself after all! Whew! You almost had me.
Oh and take Suicide with you. He's not even getting a letter 'cause he almost made me miss heaven. I don't ever want to talk to that IDIOT again!
Listen, the only company I want when I'm in my house alone is the Holy Spirit. So uh, thanks but no thanks! Every person that I "cc" on this letter is off limits to you! Leave God's people alone...we don't belong to you! And in case you don't get the hint, let me seal this letter with this...
Leave Us Alone and Goodbye In Jesus' Name,
Steph

A Letter to Low Self-Image
Hey You,
Yeah, you...ugly, dirty and fat. I was thinking about you today (as I smiled) and remembered all of the years you caused me pain. I know that you are weak now (with all of the time that's passed since we've seen each other) and this is probably not a good time, but I just had to write this letter to catch you up on my life now.
Remember all of that stuff that happened to me and when you first came into my life? Remember how you told me that if I never opened my mouth about it I would be fine and we would be friends? Well, you LIED! I could take some time to ask you why but you would probably just lie to me again. I get it! That's what you do...you lie. I could just punch you in your face, but you kind of resemble me and I'm saved now, so I won't.
Guess what? I wrote a book about all that stuff and it FREED ME! You were sooo wrong about me and my life. I should never have listened to you. Mm, mm, mm...wasted time and energy.
I also wanted to share with you that I have MIRRORS now. Yep!...in EVERY SINGLE ROOM OF MY NEW HOME! Even my kitchen has a mirror! LOL.
Oh and by the way, God and I? We both disagree with you... I AM GORGEOUS! Both inside and out! I got a new friend many years ago named Jesus and He cleaned me up AND girl, did you know I was never fat? I'm just thicker in all the right places (with a small waist, I might add).
You were such a liar and I can't stand you. So, I'm happy to see you go and I'm sorry you stayed so long! BYE!
Sincerely,
Steph
