Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. (Philippians 4:8 NIV)

AND DID!

**BEAUTY FOR ASHES —** As part of Making Headline News’ advance coverage of **Sarah Jakes Roberts’** inaugural **Woman Evolve Conference** September 14-16 from Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, **Eboni Borden**, an Upper Marlboro, Maryland entrepreneur-turned-author, spoke about the excitement of having joined an incredible anthology that has acquired Amazon No. 1 Bestseller honors in three notable categories. Borden is one of 48 coauthors who has helped Visionary Tamika Paige’s **Seeing Myself In HER Story: A Sister Circle Of Stories To Connect, Heal, and Push Us Through** reach immeasurable heights.

Eboni Borden wasted little time hastening to social media bright and early Sunday morning.

Given what ceremoniously unfolded, who can blame her?

Said Borden before her more than 3,300 friends via Facebook:

“Today is the day!!!!”

Indeed, it was for Borden whom, much to her delight, witnessed her much-anticipated authorship debut come to fruition amid the official launch of Seeing Myself In HER Story: A Sister Circle Of Stories To Connect, Heal, and Push Us Through, fellow Maryland Visionary Author Tamika Paige’s highly-anticipated first anthology.

As part of Making Headline News’ advance coverage of Sarah Jakes Roberts’ inaugural Woman Evolve Conference September 14-16 from Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, Borden, an Upper Marlboro, Maryland entrepreneur-turned-author, spoke about the excitement of having joined an incredible book collaboration that has acquired Amazon No. 1 Bestseller honors in three notable categories.

As Borden vividly recalls, her quest to emerge as a first-time published author dates back some four years ago, although such a fantasy had essentially remained stagnant for a considerable amount of time due to various circumstances.

“Honestly, I have been sitting on four books for years that the Lord has had me start,” Borden told MHN. “However, fear and life had been a paralyzing situation for me.”

Fortunately for Borden, that certainly wasn’t the case — at least not this year.

Demonstrating proverbial bend-but-don’t-break faith unlike never before, Borden was destined to make her authorship dreams a long-awaited reality.

Mission accomplished for this Largo, Maryland native, one of 48 co-authors who have graced the pages of collaborative written work that had created a widespread national buzz weeks prior to its release.

**THE PSALM 105:1 FACTOR —** “For so long, people have tried to silence me, and I have not told my story because I allowed them to bully me out of my truth,” Borden said. “But this book is just a glimpse of my story now that I have regained my voice. I encourage people to not be bullied out of telling their truth. Someone needs to hear from you.”

“This book gave me the push I needed to reclaim my voice and call the warrior out of other women to keep fighting until they see every dream, every vision, every promise manifest,” Borden said.

Generally, the legwork for Seeing Myself In HER Story: A Sister Circle Of Stories To Connect, Heal, and Push Us Through commenced in January and took somewhere in the neighborhood of approximately six months to complete.

“It doesn’t matter where you are in life, Seeing Myself in HER Story offers inspiration to all readers,” said a spokesperson for Paige’s first anthology via Amazon.com. “The book greets every reader with testimonies that uplift, encourage, and act as a guide. From the trials and triumphs, to the transparent topics, the S.H.E. — She Has Experience — organization presents a book that is designed to help women continue a path of pushing through.

“The women in this book have been bonded and connected by sharing their truths, hearts, and stories of perseverance and were led in this effort by none-other-than CEO and Founder of Paige Group Inc., Tamika Paige.”

FIXIN’ HER CROWN

Added Borden, explaining the divine message through her chosen chapter in Seeing Myself in HER Story:

“The real power is in the fact that you are still here. That is a testament to the tenacity that resides in you. There is a ferocious fight in all women…some of it is simply untapped. I want to call women up to a place where they can smell the roses that they have planted, even in dark situations and keep going.”

A rising empowerment extraordinaire in her own right, Borden doesn’t shy away from the notion that she has been strategically called to transform communities, particularly by changing mindsets, enlarging vision, and by what she describes as commanding hope to arise, she said.

“However, communities will not change until the women and men that run the families can see the bigger picture,” Borden said. “I am called to transform communities and families, one person at a time.”

Now that her debut as an author has finally come to fruition, Borden hints it is a foregone conclusion that other books are on the horizon.

Much sooner rather than later, of course.

WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY

**GOD’S PLAN —** As Borden vividly recalls, her quest to emerge as a first-time published author dates back some four years ago, although such a fantasy had essentially remained stagnant for a considerable amount of time due to various circumstances.

“Yes, there are several (books),” Borden said. Now that the momentum is here, it’s all gas and no breaks.”

Indeed, it is, for this first-time published writer, who’d be the first to admit she relishes the fact that she finally has an authorship voice, as evidenced by what unfolded on Sunday.

“For so long, people have tried to silence me, and I have not told my story because I allowed them to bully me out of my truth,” Borden said. “But this book is just a glimpse of my story now that I have regained my voice. I encourage people to not be bullied out of telling their truth. Someone needs to hear from you.”

Amen to that, sister.

Amen.

GOD’S FAITH-STEPPER

**BIRTHED WITH PURPOSE —** *“Honestly, I have been sitting on four books for years that the Lord has had me start,” Borden told MHN. “However, fear and life had been a paralyzing situation for me.”*
