"I AM a RUBY, NOT a SAPPHIRE" (BOOK REVIEWS)

 "Hear what the people are saying! This is a life changing book! It will surely set you free from the bondage of your past so that you too can one day tell your story!! Glory to God!"

I'm a Ruby not a Sapphire is a riveting story of pain perseverance and triumph. It's a love story about redemption. In this story there's a biblical correlation of how God loves and sees his people and how the enemy attempts to distort his love through lies, pain and rejection. It starts with the beauty and simplicity of God and a child's happiness and love, then progresses into this winding road of despair which, fortunately leads right back to HIM. I was hooked on the first page and As I turned each page I was captivated by the transparency and raw truth of how each situation was expressed, which speaks volumes about the maturity level and insight of the writer towards her experiences. This book will make you laugh and cry. It stirs the emotions in so many ways that it provokes an introspective look into your own soul and inspires a deeper desire for personal healing and greater deliverance. Bravo Chiquita Tillman! for a brilliantly written work, may God use this as a tool of healing, hope and restoration!
You are truly a RUBY not a Sapphire! - "

Such an inspiring message. I couldn't put the book down. I love the fact that she is able to take such a devastating past and turn it into the very thing she uses to help the next suffering person that has no HOPE. This is by far the best book I have read in a long time...I didn't want it to end. Very inspiring!! Great Message!! - "Lori Morson"

I just finished your book, what can I say!! So powerful, a true testimony of a transformed life, and still conforming to His image and likeness. Truly you are a ruby valuable and precious.  "Love Pastor Lorraine Howard"

Yesterday after work my autographed copy of "I am a Ruby not a Sapphire" arrived in the mail. I read it thru in 2 and a half hours. This lady that i went to school with, had a crush on, i never knew, or would have guessed she endured so much pain and abuse and cruelty. Any of you who know her know it's damn hard now to tell she went through all of the things she describes in her book. I say all of that to say that her testimony is inspiring. If you're having problems with your spirituality check Ms. Chiquita Tillman's book out. This is a living testament to the reality and power and grace of God. Kudos to you Chiquita Tillman. May God continue to bless and strengthen you and give you success.
