DRIED in THE Desert: DESERT WASN'T MY DESTINATION. IT WAS PREPARATION.

At twenty-one, I drove west believing Las Vegas was my promised land.I left three years later believing I had failed.Twenty-five years later, God called me back.Not to rebuild the life I left behind.Not to reclaim old dreams.But to release them.What I thought would be a triumphant return became one of the hardest seasons of my life. A dream job disappeared and I struggled to maintain two households.Yet in the middle of uncertainty, God proved Himself to be my Provider, my Sustainer, and my Guide.Dried in the Desert is more than a memoir. It is a testimony of obedience, disappointment, unexpected provision, and the God who never wastes a wilderness.If you've ever wondered whether you heard God correctly...If you've ever obeyed Him only to find yourself walking into a harder season...If you've ever questioned why He led you somewhere only to lead you away again... This story is for you.Because sometimes the desert isn't your destination.It's your preparation.
