Book excerpt: What do you do when you realize your mother doesn't want you...and you're only five years old? Find out in this graphic narrative as Dr. Annie Hurley shares her personal story of childhood abandonment, a life that entailed years of poverty, fear, hunger, loneliness- and unimaginable physical and sexual abuse. Annie's journey led her through over thirty different home living situations, including several years of residing with her mother, whose love and attention Annie craved above all else. Yet instead of living secure in her mother's love and protection, Annie lived in fear and emotional torment on a daily basis. Though she always believed God was real, and even caught supernatural glimpses of Him along the way, Annie could never seem to find the relationship with Him she longed for. Finally, when a high school teacher invited Annie to hear a Christian speaker, Annie prayed to receive Jesus. This life-altering event set her on a path toward healing, deliverance, and restoration, where she learned....How to renew her mind to the Word of God. How to find her true identity in Christ. How to break free from torment through the power of forgiveness. How to overcome rejection through receiving Jesus' love. How to exchange Satan's lies for God's truth. How to keep her children free from the issues of her past. How to know God as a Father to the fatherless Evil is real and it exists in this world; Annie's story proves it. More importantly, it proves that no matter how deep the enemy assaults, Jesus' love is deeper still. Nothing can separate us from that love, or the faithfulness of a heavenly Father who offers hope and healing to all who will reach out to Him and ask for His guidance to peace and freedom.
