Chosen & Crowned
Be inspired by the women whose stories God
preserved throughout His Word.
Throughout biblical history, Adonai chose women from diverse backgrounds to participate in His purposes. They were queens and widows, mothers and outsiders, women of courageous faith, and women who were still learning who He was.
They were ordinary women whom God met in defining moments. Some felt unqualified. Some carried painful histories. Some were overlooked by the people around them. Yet God saw each woman, knew her story, and invited her to become part of something greater than herself.
If you have ever felt unworthy, unnoticed, unloved, rejected, or unnecessary, this book is for you.
As you walk through the stories of these women, you will discover encouragement for your own journey and see that your past does not disqualify you from God’s love or His purposes.
You do not have to wait until you feel completely ready.
Draw close to Him now. Allow Him to prepare your heart, strengthen your faith, and teach you to recognize when He is inviting you to follow.
Lessons we learn from Adonai our God:
– He CHOSE us!
– He loves us
– He does NOT abandon us
– He forgives us
– He teaches us
– He knows what is best for us
– He is doing things for us that we cannot see
– We find our identity in Him alone!
Trust Him. Cling to Him.
HE IS ENOUGH!
“For Adonai takes delight in his people,
he crowns the humble with salvation.”
Psalms 149:4 CJB

Chosen & Crowned
Through prayer, personal experience, and years of studying the Holy Bible,
Grace wrote this book to help you discover more about God’s purpose for your life.
Throughout His Word, God preserved the stories of women from many backgrounds
and seasons of life. They experienced rejection, grief, uncertainty, difficult relationships,
unexpected responsibilities, and moments when they questioned whether they were
qualified for what stood before them.
Their circumstances may have been different from yours,
but many of their emotions and struggles may feel familiar.
In His grace and mercy, God allows us to learn from their stories.
We can see how He met them, strengthened them, corrected them,
restored them, and invited them to trust Him with the next step.
Grace prayerfully gathered these Scripture-based lessons to remind
you that other women have walked difficult paths before you—
and that the same faithful God who remained with them is present with you today.
This book is grounded in God’s Word and written to encourage you as you grow in your
relationship with Him and discover the purpose He has placed within your life.
May Adonai bless you and keep you.
Book Excerpt
Have you ever wondered why He calls studying His Word, “Daily Bread?” He wants you to spend time with Him every day, one-on-one, getting to know each other and drawing closer together as He teaches you in your studies.
God’s Holy Word is our “manna” from Heaven, our “bread” that feeds our soul.
He calls it “Daily Bread,” not “whenever bread.”
“Give us this day our daily bread.”
Matthew 6:11
If you have ever felt like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole, this book is for you.
Feeling different, overlooked, or left out does not mean there is something wrong with you.
You were never meant to allow the world to determine your identity, worth, or purpose.
You belong to Jesus, and He has called you to live according to His truth rather than
continually reshaping yourself to receive the world’s approval.
Being set apart does not mean you are unwanted or alone.
It means you belong to Him.
You are His beloved daughter, created in His image and invited to participate in His purposes.
Jesus said:
“You do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.”
—John 15:19 (NLT)
You are in this world, but this world does not define you.
God has given you a purpose to live today, people to love, and opportunities to reflect Jesus
—and He has also given you the hope of eternity with Him.
