Shaquatta Edgar

I am a mother to one beautiful and smart daughter. I am a servant of God who loves being an encouragement to others. I have a passion for people no matter their color, gender, or economic status. I was born to bring change to a broken world and that is what I choose to do. I enjoy writing, podcasting, and being a minister in God’s kingdom.

I began identifying my purpose as a writer when I was about 12 years old. I would journal a lot and write poetry to express my feelings. I also began identifying my purpose as a minister when I was a child through dreams. In these dreams, I would be preaching, and it took me some time to figure out that was what I was doing in my dreams. Also, later my calling as a preacher was confirmed by three different servants of God.

Knowing the great impact that I would have on people’s lives is what inspired me to pursue my purpose.

There have been many challenges. I have been challenged with fear, people telling me I wasn’t supposed to preach because I’m a woman, health issues, loss of my job, passing of my father, divorce, and many other things. Although I have experienced these challenges, they are pushing me forward into my destiny.

I am still working on a name for my book, hopefully, I will have a name for it soon. I am also a

part of several anthologies that will also be launched this year. Those anthologies are as follows: Overcoming Obstacles by Walking in Kingdom Authority-Volume 1, Live Your Faith Out Loud- Volume 2, and Women of Power: Ignited to Serve.

Having my voice heard through the pages of books and the influence they will have on the lives of others is what inspired me. Also, knowing that I will be a part of something that is big and will accomplish the will of God.

My family would be my biggest motivation. My mom and dad; believed in me and were proud of me. Watching my brothers and sisters go through things and continue to go on, daily inspires me to keep going as well. And my daughter she’s proud of me and gets excited about what I do. With them, I can’t help but press towards better and be all God called me to be. God also motivates me because He has never left my side.

I would tell my younger self to be strong and courageous and not be afraid, God’s got you.

Pay attention to things in your life that don’t make sense because it just might be God pushing you towards your destiny. Also, seek God, pray, and ask Him to show you what you were created to do.

I am excited about what God is doing through me. It’s not always easy, but God has enabled me to be the minister and writer he has purposed for me to be. Even when we don’t feel or think we are worthy or capable of being a light to anyone we must keep pursuing our purpose anyway. It’s often in the darkest moments that God raises us and causes us to shine even brighter. So as a light we must keep pressing forward with purpose and never lose hope in God.
