Voice of Truth Stories

MEET DAWN VAZQUEZ FROM PALM BEACH ISLAND, FLORIDA

Voice of Truth has provided a new voice for the story that is my journey.

From being bedridden for a year, praying til I had no voice and looking up happiness on YouTube, to being sick of being sick and now living as a two-time survivor of a terminal illness, it is not lost on me that I would not be here if it were not for the good graces of the Lord. This magazine, which promotes love for the Lord without censorship, has inspired me to create an even larger community of like-minded Christian women who don’t wish to be censored socially but rather proudly exclaim what their faith has done for them. I ask humbly and with full gratitude that you listen to my story and learn what God has done for me.

As a strong businesswoman, I went from six figures to no figures because of a lifestyle circumstance versus a lifestyle choice. While this circumstance could cause others to question their very belief in God, I saw this as a call to arms and dedicated my life to being a spiritual warrior: a servant to God. The message I spread is that while we might not always know how our story begins, we will have a say in how our story is to be told, proclaiming that only God knows the ending.

In the case of my illness, I could’ve allowed fears to scare me into submission, but I remember saying to a cousin,

“If I’m truly a believer in the Lord Almighty, and truly giving my fears over to him, then it is only by way of this true faith in HIM, that I will be given a new hope!”

So, that’s exactly what I did; I chose faith over fear and committed to sharing my story with others, not to impress them but to express what truly is possible through God. I was given 2-5 years to live. Now, with tears in my eyes, I’m writing this a decade after being diagnosed! It’s truly a miracle. No ghost writers need apply!

With each story read in Voice of Truth, your voice gets louder and HIS voice is heard through OUR words! And this is how we create the change we all seek!
