The life lessons were timeless and valuable. Paula, like most people has had her ups and downs and she is not always put together, but she always understands that LIFE must daily be fueled by the power of God. Paula loves and is most energized when working to help others reach their life goals. While writing ‘Walk Into Your New’ Paula noted that we must remain INTENTIONAL and PURPOSEFUL about our living. Her hopes are that she can pass this on to her daughter and her sons to encourage them to live on purpose as she is striving to do. Most important is
her faith—believing that we are each designed and born for purpose—God’s purpose. We are meant to fill a particular God ordered space in the earth.
