God is an expert at taking the messes in our lives and working them into the plan so that when we look back, rather than say that the challenge destroyed us, we will say that the challenge helped us win.

You are not alone, God is with you, if you have gone away from Him, it’ s time to run back into the loving arms of a Father who never fails. If you have not accepted Him, then it is time to ask Him to come into your heart and be your Lord and Savior.

Resources are constantly added to the online university I don’ t think I have been through half of them yet. It is certainly worth every penny.
HimPower Magazine: Tell us about DOZ, what it stands for and why you decided to publish this women’ s lifestyle magazine.
Eturuvie Erebor: DOZ is an acronym for Daughters of Zion and I initially started publishing DOZ Magazine in 2009. Following my short lived marriage and divorce I decided that writing would be a good out-let for some of the pain I was feeling at the time. I wrote my story, just pouring my heart out on paper. When my story was finished, I had two options, turn it in to an established magazine or establish a magazine of my own that would feature my story.
