This book Divorcing My Deceptive Husband is about my ex-husband, Katalay from Congo. When I met him he was a refugee. His status changed when we got married. This book is not about criticizing him or destroying his character. I have no intentions to destroy his character at all. I fear God who create lives and owns all souls. What I discuss in this book is how women citizens can be deceived by desperate refugees who prey on such women to gain citizenship. It is not only in the Republic of South Africa but in Europe and United States as well. Recently I met a Black South African man. I ...

Who’s Womb Is It? is my book that I wrote after I had my hysterectomy (womb removal). It was not an easy decision for me to make. It was my first time going to a government hospital for a medical procedure. Praise be to our God everything went well. I made some friends at the hospital. I delayed for months to go for the medical procedure because of the stigma behind women without wombs. When I tell some women that I don’t have a womb they say “oh, I’m so sorry, oh, at least I still have mine”. Some women jump away from me as if I said I have a contagious deadly disease. It shows ...

When The Owner Of Souls Comes are poems that I wrote when I thought about LORD Jesus Christ coming back for us, His Bride, ‘His Church’. I count myself not better than anyone else. I am grieved to see the division in the Body of Christ. How we compete with each other. My grandmother taught me a few good things. One of them was the importance of the body parts. They must work together for the perfection of the body. I meet people who act very superior because of the revelations they received from God in the past. I met one pastor who said to me, “Jesus is the head and I am His neck.”...

My Once Depressed Soul is a collection of poems that I wrote about my own depression in the past and depression of people that I have met. Depression is not something new that attacks human beings. We find people in both the Old Testament and New Testament of the Bible who were depressed. In this poetry I express my views as an Author and not a medical Doctor – looking at depression from a spiritual point of view. I personally view Depression as a defeated spirit that can see, hear, eat and breathe. To addresses it is not a once off action but makes a repeated command it by faith against ...

This title My Trials, My Tribulations, My Triumphant Ascending to Heaven is to encourage fellow Believers that we should not lose heart and let our love for God grow cold. We do and will go through trials and tribulations but let us focus on God and not on what is going on in the world and around us. So that we can have our triumphant ascending to heaven when God calls us home. Our triumphant ascending to heaven could be after we are martyred for our faith in Jesus Christ of Nazareth. The triumphing does not imply dying in peace while asleep. What we strive for is to stay in faith until our...

Once The Outcast People a collection of poems that I wrote about Colored People (children born from different races). These are regarded as drunkards, immoral, uncultured, mixed blood, trouble makers, rude, undisciplined, criminals, gangsters and illiterate. These is true for some of Coloreds but then how do we as Christians help some of these people. If God did not use His Afrikaner servant in 2018 to minister deliverance to me, to teach me about forgiveness and love of God I would have been among such ruthless criminals. My mother going all out to destroy me and my child with occult ...

Silencing the Laughter of Goliath are poems written by Doreen regarding handling criticism. There are certain circumstances that a person have no control of, for example we don’t choose who are mothers and fathers must be, we don’t choose what race we must be and we don’t choose our appearance.

The title is rather a provoking one and will raise objections from some people. Nevertheless the Lord gave me this title when I was battling against poverty. I was trying my best to help others out of poverty, sharing the little investment knowledge I know about shares, unit trusts, 32 days’ notice investments, Government Bonds and stockvel . I say little knowledge because I’m not an expert in the field and have a lot to learn. It does not give an excuse to hoarding but encourages givers to give wisely. Most of us were not taught financial skills as children, when we got a coin we ...

Being shouted by madam, her husband and children. It surprised me that in South Africa have 22 years of democracy but still have madams who call their domestic workers “girls”.

I worked for one old woman who demanded ...
