BLISS: Share how you are making the most out of your singleness:
Keisha: “As a single person, I am learning whole heartily what trusting in GOD looks like. I believe my story is unique because I have been married before (I am currently divorced) and have three children—so my single season looks a lot different because of the portion that God has given me. Since getting out of an unhealthy relationship, God has graced me with the responsibility to plant the seeds of encouragement into our young girls.
I have written three books for girls of various ages (Young Girls, Middle School Girls, and Older Girls); following through with God’s instructions have allowed me to make a positive impact in my community, and—most of all—my family.”
BLISS: What is one piece of advice that you would like to share with other singles?
K: “I would refer them to Corinthians 7:34, ‘An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit.’ I think this says it all. We should make it our business to focus on the Lord and what He has set out for us.”
BLISS: What are you currently doing in ministry or for the Kingdom of God?
K: “I have started a faith-based nonprofit organization called Abundantly Authentic and a for-profit company that encourages our young girls to know their worth through Christ so they are not entering into unhealthy relationships.”
BLISS: What project or business do you want to share with the BLISSforSingles audience?
K: “I have three books out, all called : Blue Print to Self Esteem but there are different editions (Young Girl Edition, Middle School Girl Edition, & Older Girl Edition) all available on Amazon. They all are catered to supporting our girls by giving them age-appropriate, practical tools to start or continue their journey into womanhood.”
BLISS: Anything else that you’d like to share with us?
K: “I would like to share an impactful scripture that you rarely see, and I believe this is one of them that has truly made an impact in my life. It’s simple and to the point: ‘Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field. Do not arouse or awaken love until is so desires.’ Song of Songs 2:7”
