Where do strong women those women who are forbidden to display their tears and their weaknesses go to find rest? Whose shoulder, besides God's, do we cry on if our shoulder pads are drenched from the tears of others, and our bodies are limp from carrying the weight and the burdens of another? The Cry of a Woman! is like no other cry on the face of the earth. It's a covenant cry to God when we have reached the end of our rope and have considered suicide when the rainbow was enough. If you're tired of the status quo and tired of livin' in hell waitin' to go to heaven, then learn how to get into the secret place of the Most High and cry out to God. In this life-changing book of poetry and words of wisdom, Dr. Djuna "Stormy" Watkins will lead you to the pathway to find rest and strength for your weary souls. She will help you discover the answers to the hidden issues of the heart, as you unravel the maze to the secret places of your lost miracles, declaring with the force of your faith, "I want...them...back!" You are not weak, frail, and timid. You are a woman of war! Therefore, get into your battle position of prayer and praise, and pull down every satanic stronghold in your life. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4). Besides, it ain't over until God says it's over. You're not having a breakdown; you're having a breakthrough! So gird up your loins and come out of the closet of self-pity. God needs you! The world needs you! You are stronger, more capable, and more equipped than you think. You are even "badder" than your enemy thinks. God is getting ready to unveil you before the world as His very own masterpiece.
