Imagine becoming divorced and losing your brother all within a myriad of two weeks. Well, that was the shocking reality for Melinda Peter who recently told her story of resilience in the book H.E.R Story Too which is a collection of stories compiled by international best seller Carolyn Wilson by 25 women from all over the world.
On Saturday, October 7th, 2023, Peter held her book launch at Accra Beach Hotel to a packed audience who enjoyed her testimony of how she overcame the odds.
“In my chapter How Her Pain Gave Her Purpose I speak about two life altering events that would have occurred my marriage being over and then losing my brother very tragically. It was a difficult process for me to walk through especially how it would have occurred within two weeks of each other. There was a point that I was really mad at God. But why would I be mad at God? But I understood that it was not that I was angry at him but it was that I was really hurt and in a broken place, so, I just had to ensure that I get reconnected with him. I wanted to walk away from him as I thought that he was ashamed of me. I understood that God still loved me, he had a plan and a purpose for me. It was strategic for me to walk out on this journey by faith. It was not easy but I am in a position where I am in a healed position and I can really speak to problems giving help and providing solutions to persons despite their circumstances. The chapter I wrote in the best-selling book is my personal story of how I went from pain to purpose and how my pain gave me purpose. Back then I could not understand when God told me that my pain was giving me purpose. I now understand why I had to go through what I went through so that I could figure out what my purpose is,” she said.
Peter said writing her chapter for the book took her a few months to write and she is pleased to be a part of a best-selling book that is inspiring other women and girls across the world. “Having my chapter in the book which was compiled by international author Carolyn Wilson shows me that I can go beyond these 166 square miles. My Instagram Handle is @melindagoesglobal as I always had a vision from the time, I was a little girl to be on a global stage having this book be a resounding success confirms to me that this is my calling and that my borders are limitless,” she said.
Peter, who is a financial consultant and author said she decided to be a part of the book as she wanted to share her story to inspire others. “I feel as though it is my time to deliver and to speak and share my story with others that if can overcome then they can overcome too. Because H.E.R Story Too is for women who are Healed, Empowered and Resilient. We are together overcoming obstacles. So, if I can overcome obstacles other persons can overcome their obstacles as well,” she said.
At the Book Launch persons also heard the powerful testimony from 7-time International Best Selling Author Carolyn Wilson who shared her story of how she overcame molestation and domestic abuse to head her calling to minister to persons all over the world. Members of the audience hung unto her every word as she was honest and open about all she went through and how God has been her light in her darkest hour.
