You Are Good Enough

Dear cherished reader,

Growing up in the humble town of Monticello, Arkansas, as the youngest of three children, I was nurtured by parents who survived the Great Depression and instilled in me the values of faith, education, and entrepreneurship. These values have not only shaped who I am but also how I see the world and my place in it. Today, I want to share with you a message that I hope will resonate deeply: You are good enough.

Recognizing Your Worth

From A Young Age, My Life Has Been A Journey Of Recognizing The Worth That God Has Placed Within Me. This Realization Didn’t Come Easily But Grew As I Embraced My Faith More Fully. At The Tender Age Of 10, When I Professed My Faith In Christ, I Began To Understand That My Value Doesn’t Come From Worldly Achievements Or The Approval Of Others, But From God. Remember, “But You Are A Chosen People, A Royal Priesthood, A Holy Nation, God’s Special Possession, That You May Declare The Praises Of Him Who Called You Out Of Darkness Into His Wonderful Light” (1 Peter 2:9).

Faith And Purpose

Alongside My Husband, Pastor Craig Brown, We Launched Victory Station Ministries In The DFW Metroplex To Lead People To Christ And Help Them Find Their God-Given Purpose, Regardless Of Their Background. It’s Through Our Ministry That I’ve Seen Firsthand That Everyone Has Something Unique To Offer, And Everyone’s Journey Is Important. Whether I’m Speaking At Our Church, Teaching At Collin College, Or Leading My Team In The Biotech Industry, My Message Is Consistent: You Are Good Enough Because God Made You With Intention And Care.

Challenges Are Part Of The Journey

I Have Faced Numerous Challenges, From Understanding Complex Scientific Concepts In Biotech To Guiding Real Estate Clients Through The Maze Of Home Ownership. Each Challenge Has Reinforced My Belief In Philippians 4:13, “I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me.” This Scripture Is A Reminder Not Just Of What We Can Endure But Of The Heights We Can Reach When We Trust In His Strength.

Empowering Others

As The Founder And CEO Of The A. Patrice Group LLC, I Work To Empower Others, Especially Through Programs Like Entrepreneurial Excellence, Which Supports New Entrepreneurs In Merging Their Faith With Their Business Endeavors. This Is A Testament To The Fact That Our Work Matters To God, As Echoed In Colossians 3:23-24, “Whatever You Do, Work Heartily, As For The Lord And Not For Men, Knowing That From The Lord You Will Receive The Inheritance As Your Reward. You Are Serving The Lord Christ.”
