Transformation Quotes by Latoya Matthews

Empowerment Through Compassion: "And one thing that I love is just seeing women free and knowing that this is what God has called me to do, just knowing that if I don't show God's love to women, then who will? Especially those women who've experienced abortion. And we need that compassion."

— Latoya Matthews [00:01:34 → 00:01:51]

Spiritual Unveiling: "the only way the veil can be removed is when we come to Jesus Christ in verse twelve says, let us come boldly."

— Latoya Matthews [00:05:46 → 00:05:53]

Reflecting on Abortion: "And for about ten years, I prayed one simple prayer, God, please forgive me for what I have done. And it took me through hell."

— Latoya Matthews [00:08:20 → 00:08:29]

Finding Purpose Through Faith: "And the second question was, what is it of value that you have to offer to someone else? And I broke down crying because I had let the enemy tell me that I had no purpose here, that I had nothing of value to give to someone else."

— Latoya Matthews [00:09:19 → 00:09:32]

The Power of Sharing Personal Stories: "But as I started to blog more, I was doing blogging at the time because that's what I was doing instead of trying to tell my story, because this was the easy way to try to do this. But the voice just kept getting louder, and it got uncomfortable for me. So in 2019, I stood in front of a group of women at the confidence activated with Rachel Luna. And I told my story. And I ran out of that place so fast because it was like, you're this introvert, so what did you just do? What just happened? But the amount of support from women that came up after and said, thank you for being brave, and I, too, have had an abortion. Like, thank you for speaking out on that. And women asked me to pray for them because they thought that they couldn't have children."

— Latoya Matthews [00:10:54 → 00:11:42]

Overcoming Personal Traumas: "They thought that not having children was a punishment, that God was punishing them for having an abortion. So I had a chance to really pray with women, but it confirmed and affirmed me at the same time that, okay, it's time for me to tell my story."

— Latoya Matthews [00:11:42 → 00:11:58]

Empowerment through the Free Woman Program: "After every session, I asked the women for feedback, and the one common theme was free in freedom. Like, this is what they felt."

— Latoya Matthews [00:12:47 → 00:12:55]

The Essence of Spiritual and Financial Freedom: "A wealthy woman is a free woman. And so that's where wealth comes from, when we can be free in who we are and just allowing God to be AbbA father to have that provision, make provision and protect us as his daughters."

— Latoya Matthews [00:13:51 → 00:14:07]

The Power of Storytelling: "And so our story becomes the oil that removes the crust and things from those who need it, those who receive it in their hands, those who receive it in their hearts. And so our stories become that oil for other sheep."

— Latoya Matthews [00:26:16 → 00:26:34]

Overcoming Personal Challenges: "But I wrote in my journal that I am excited to complete the assignment that God has given me. But most of all, I finished something. And finishing this book means more to me than any book sale because it's something that I was able to accomplish in knowing and saying that I can do hard things."
