Mary Anne declares that every new day gives us reason for conveying our appreciation to God, who has made conceivable all things worth having in life and the life to come. However, the Adversary would like to use your past as a weapon. The author talks about how she has used her past as a pathway for greatness. She believes in the words of 2 Corinthians 12:7. And lest I should be exalted above measures there’re was given to me a throne in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measures. In this book, Shut Up for What?, the author talks about her life growing up as preacher kid, a teenage mother-twice-teenage marriage, and how the God she serves turned her ashes into beauty. During her teenage years the question was raised if she would finish high school. Not only did she finish high school, she’s a Registered Nurse, License Real-estate Broker, the owner of her own real-estate company Triple A Realty, LLC.
