About Susan Browder

“Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.”  Hebrews 11:1 I grew up in a small town in Alabama called Boligee. I am a wife and a mom to two sons, Nick who is 24 and married to his sweet wife, Mallory, and Jacob who is 18.  My husband, Nicky, is a person of who I am so proud. Our lives changed forever on September 6, 2014 about 7:00 pm. Our son, Jacob, had an accident that would deeper our faith in God and challenge us in ways we never dreamed. My prayer is that our story will encourage others in their struggles with life altering experiences. My writing will be our testimonies but more than that it is about how we have a loving, caring God that carries us through the most difficult times of our lives.

Taking on Anything

“So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessings if we don’t give up.” Galatians 6:9 (NLT)

“Never Give Up”

Never Give Up

Writing a book with my son about his injury and recovery has been such a blessing. With all these blessings, tons of learning have taken place. We have spent so much time learning the process of getting published and getting our message out there. Our goal for the book is to motivate and inspire others going through trials and encouraging them to never give up. We have had to remind ourselves of this message several times in the process of getting our book out there. A few weeks ago, we were turned down by a person who would be in charge of our email campaign for the book launch. This person said our book was “too churchy.” He said his team wouldn’t be a good fit to read and do a review on the book. All I could think of was aren’t these the people who need to read it the most?

Here Is My Heart Lord

Do you ever have frustrations build up when you are trying to do something good and so many things come at you and slow you down? It is so tough on my heart and the moment comes where I have to say, “Here is my heart, Lord. Please take this!” This month has been like the Whac-a-mole game of life and every time I find a way around a problem, another issue pops up. I have to start whacking away at all of them as they continue. This creates a seed of doubt in my head for a moment, and then Galatian 6:9 reminds me to persevere. Jacob and the Lord have taught me so much about perseverance. Jacob has shown me I can take on anything in life with perseverance.

Counting My Blessings,

Susan Browder
