Before relocating to her husband's home country, the Ghanaian lady said she was a 'big girl' who made good money from her job as a dancer and video vixen.

"I was a big girl in Ghana, but I became homeless in Germany after my husband died…. My bosses sacked me from work," she told Zionfelix.

Rosie said her situation got worse to the extent that she contemplated returning home to Ghana but was talked out of it by an immigration officer who encouraged her to stay.

"I really wanted to go back home, but sometimes you feel like you are a disappointment to yourself and to your family," she stated.

With perseverance and God's special grace, Rosie said her situation turned around after she got a new job.

She now owns a salon in Germany and thanked God and the immigration officer who talked her out of returning home.
