Why I Wrote "Does God See Me?"

I wrote Does God See Me? for me—for us—for every woman who has ever wrestled with pain and suffering while sitting with God, confused and heartbroken, not understanding why. This book was born out of my own questions, tears, and the quiet moments when answers felt far away but God's presence felt near. Though the "why" behind our pain is often unclear, I’ve come to believe that God’s presence is the true comfort that carries us through the healing journey. I needed to remind myself—and I want to remind you—that even in our darkest, most silent seasons, God sees us.

Why French Translation Matters

I want Does God See Me? to be translated into French because this book was written with the women of ElevateHer International in mind—women who have poured their stories, strength, and resilience into my heart. It was also deeply inspired by the women who raised and nurtured me, Haitian women, whose courage has shaped me. Their unwavering faith and strength have given me the confidence to never give up and always stand tall. When I wrote this book, I knew from the beginning that it had to be translated into French—to honor them and reach them in the language of their hearts. I also think of the women we serve in francophone countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo. I remember my friend Marie Jeanne saying, “I can’t wait to read this in French.” That stayed with me. I want these women—all of them—to hear, in their own language, that God sees them, loves them, and has not forgotten them.
