HIS HEART CHANGES EVERYTHING

Where do we turn when all we know and understand is stolen from our lives? Some ,have turned to family, friends, or jobs as ,the ,source of healing ,after tragedy. Others prefer ,alcohol, drugs or other abusive behaviors that promise to ,hide ,the pain in our traumatized lives. Following these paths, we ,enter into lives ,of denial. Insisting that all is ok, ,we push ourselves to keep ,moving forward. , In His mercy, these paths will prove fruitless ,thus forcing us to dig deeper and ,seek harder for better sources of recovery. Trauma in our lives has the ability to turn our ,hearts into ,burnt out buildings where no life can exist. , In our human attempts to deal with the pain, we become self- focused and self- worshipping. , Terms such as ",the human spirit", and the ",decency ,of man", become familiar but false ,gods that we turn to in hopes of change. This book takes the reader on a journey through one family',s exodus from tragedy and trauma into life. , It does not present the reader with the ,perfect way to walk this ,path nor does it , provide ,a ",how to", recipe for success. , ,The author has ,willingly opened ,up her heart to a sincere picture of what it was like for her and her family to live in the wilderness of fear, anger and neglect. She describes candidly ,the effects of her own traumatized heart on her husband and children as well as the often difficult and imperfect ,journey to real ,healing love in Jesus Christ. Theirs ,is not a story of religion but a story of truth that penetrates social, ,economic and religious traditions with His penetrating light of love. It is a book that asks of the reader to be as honest and sincere with the hope that in allowing Christ to switch our own story line we ,too might find what we ,have been looking for.
