Reed’s Reads of Wisdom Wednesdays™: The End Is Just the Beginning

As we close out 2025, I want to talk to you—not just as a reader, but as someone walking this journey of purpose and persistence right alongside you.
This past year marked my first full year of working for God and myself full-time.
Let me be real with you: it was stressful, uncertain, and at times, downright exhausting. There were moments I didn’t know how the bills would get paid. Nights I sat with questions bigger than my answers. Weeks where discouragement screamed—but God’s whisper still cut through.
But God provided. He opened doors I didn’t even knock on. He made ways when I felt stuck. He kept me. Strengthened me. Grew me. And reminded me that when you move in purpose, you don’t walk alone.
And now here you are—reading this, breathing, standing in your own testimony.
Let this be your reminder: Just because it’s the end of the year doesn’t mean it’s the end of your calling. Sometimes the end is how God starts something new.
📺 A Year of Stretching, Spotlighting, and Surrender
2025 came with a whirlwind of emotions and elevation.
🎥 I had the opportunity to sit down with West Tennessee PBS and share my journey as a writer, entrepreneur, and believer.

📚 My novels—S.O.L.A.D.™: Soldiers of Light Against Darkness™ – Book I & II—continued to bless lives across the country. Seeing readers engage with these stories, share their favorite characters, and even buy autographed copies to gift others has been humbling.

🔥 What’s Next in 2026
You asked for more… and more is coming.
📖 Books III and IV of the S.O.L.A.D.™ series are scheduled to release very soon—with higher stakes, deeper revelations, and even more of the spiritual warfare and heart that made the first two books so powerful.
🎯 Several new creative projects are also in development—from spin-offs to crossover sagas, to initiatives that reach beyond the page and into the community.
🎤 Expect more workshops, interviews, appearances, and powerful content that speaks to both the warrior and the writer in you.
🙏🏾 What This Year Taught Me
If you're ending this year worn out, discouraged, or wondering if you're still called...
I’ve been there.
Let me remind you of what I learned in 2025:
“Faith doesn’t mean the struggle goes away. It just means the struggle doesn’t win.”
God didn’t promise an easy path. He promised presence in the storm. And presence is what sustained me this year.
🌱 Looking Ahead Together
To every single person who bought a book, shared a post, attended an event, sent a message, offered a prayer or just believed in me:
Thank you.
You helped me keep going. You helped this dream grow wings. And I promise you—this is just the beginning.
⚔️ Soldiers of Light Against Darkness™, Let’s March
As we head into 2026, take this with you:
💡 Your light doesn’t have to be perfect to shine.
🛡️ Your scars don’t disqualify you from being a soldier.
🔥 And your journey—yes, yours—is still being written by a God who knows how to finish what He starts.
So shine on. Keep fighting. And keep believing.
Because this next chapter?
It’s gonna be something special.
