Publisher's Synopsis
In her first book, Kierra A. Carter makes bold assertion about her belief that everything you go through is a process for your purpose. There is no way you can control what happens to you in life, but you are in complete control of how you react to any situation. It Had to Happen! Kierra's testimony will empower and encourage you to observe every event in life as a lesson. Rather than asking, "Lord why me?", ask instead: "Lord what are you trying to teach me?". Kierra's message to you is this: Your life is not your own, and you should be open about the events that occur in your life so that you can bless those who may have had similar experiences. You may be able to relate to this book, and you may not. But, the ultimate purpose is to show how God can give you beauty for your ashes. You have to be thankful for the little things so that God can bless you with greater. This book is to encourage you to trust the process because sometimes things in life happen for us rather than to us. Remember that olives are crushed to make oil and that grapes are crushed to make wine. The very thing that was crushed in your life is the very thing that is going to bring you strategy, value, and manifestation in your life. It Had to Happen!
