New Book Release!! Qualified to Reign

Veronica Matthews • Jan 11, 2020

I am a Featured Author in the Qualified to Reign, Memoirs of a Resilient Queen anthology. This book is a collection of powerful stories written to show you how to intentionally build a relationship with God, pick up your crowns and boldly pursue your purpose. After reading this inspirational guide, you will learn how to:

  • Allow God to heal your spirit and shift your mindset
  • Forgive yourself and others who tried to shift your crown
  • Confidentially show up in the world as the person you were born to be.

I am one of eight women who shares my story of determination, faith in God and resilience that pushed me from rock bottom into my God-assigned purpose. Filled with life-changing narratives and faith-based strategies, you can expect to learn how, you too, can bounce back from defeat, become resilient and lead a life that puts a smile on Gods face.


My launch team was surprised at how vulnerable I was and how much I share of myself in my chapter. For the most part, I consider myself an open book. As I was preparing to teach a bible study one day, I was reluctant to say something because I didn't want people all in my business. I distinctly heard in my spirit, "You ain't got no business!" I took that to mean, that my life is a testimony of God's goodness, grace and mercy and I am compelled to share the good and the bad because it all works together for my good. 


Here is an excerpt from my chapter

The first time my mother didn’t recognize me, my heart sank, and I knew I had lost her. Although her body, her smile, and her loving eyes would remain on this earth for 6 more years, her mind and the mother I knew, no longer existed. Dementia would ravage her mind and diabetes would ravage her body making every day near torture for her. Dare I say all of my family as we all had some part to play in caring for her. Selfishly, I didn’t want to let her go, so I prayed to God for her healing. So much so that one Sunday in church during alter prayer, my Pastor called me out and anointed my hands and told me to go straight to my mom to lay hands and pray over her. I did that, but nothing happened. I understood I had to have the faith that she would be healed and even she had to have the faith that she would be healed, and I believed we did, but still there were no significant improvements… no lasting healing. Eventually, her health and mental faculties continued to decline, and my heart continued to break… slowly, until she passed on February 20, 2015, just two days after I started a new job. The timing couldn’t have been worse. When all I wanted to do was curl up into a little ball and cry, I couldn’t. Or I didn’t believe I could. I had to hold it together, work, help with the arrangements and deal with the family drama that would come to the surface with my mother’s passing. So, I avoided being with my feelings of grief, loss, loneliness, longing to talk to, hug, be with my mother. 


Hindsight being 20/20, this was not the first time I recall avoiding and stuffing my feelings or listening to the voice inside. The first time was when I was 9 and ...

Are you leading your life or is life leading you?
By Veronica Matthews 12 Jan, 2018
People over the centuries have questioned and debated the subject of purpose. What is it? Is there really such a thing as purpose? Why does it matter in the first place? Webster’s Dictionary defines purpose as the reason for which something exists or is done, made, used, etc. There are more than 64,000 books on the topic of purpose and Rick Warren, alone, has written 8 of them. For one person to write 8 books on the topic of purpose, it must be a real thing and it must mean something, right? Judging from Webster’s definition and the sheer number books available on the topic, it would be hard to defend that purpose does not matter. Additionally, biblically speaking, we were created for a purpose and plan. Perhaps, I believe that purpose matters because I have discovered mine and know what a difference it has made in my life since I have come to know my purpose and pursue it. So, for argument’s sake, let’s just say that purpose does matter. So, since it matters, what is the harm in not discovering and pursuing your purpose? If purpose is the reason for your existence and you don’t discover your purpose, what are you doing? Not to throw shade or be a Debbie Downer, if you don’t know the reason(s) you were sent to the earth, the things you were created to do and be, then I would say you are proceeding through life much like I was – being led around aimlessly by the nose from one shiny object to the next, from one fad to the next, unfulfilled and searching for ‘the next’. Maybe you are content with not knowing your purpose and if you are; I respect that. No harm, no foul; I, on the other hand am a little too nosey not to be curious. If you're curious too and want to discover your purpose, here are 4 steps you can take to find your purpose and greater self-awareness in the process.
