Many of us struggle with the effects of abuse, rejection, shame, and guilt. You may have tried as I did to ease the pain with drugs, and/or alcohol. The problem with that is the damage gets so buried deep inside of you that you'll never heal until you face it. We become so used to being whatever or whomever everyone else wants us to be that we lose ourselves. I wrote this book to share my story of pain and powerlessness, sorrow, and shame. But I have a happy ending. I want you to have the same hope I have. I pray you will see yourself in my story and begin to face the truth in your own life. I hope you see that the only way to true freedom and being whole is through God. Let him give you the same hope. John 8:32 And you will know the truth and the truth will make you free.
