Description
Do you know someone who struggles with unforgiveness and the effects of childhood abuse? If so, you are not alone. So many of us cannot talk about our abuse to others. It is still very painful, even though many years have passed. Most people cannot relate to our experiences. As innocent children, we had situations dropped in our laps that adults would have had a hard time dealing with. As we grow older, bitterness, resentment, and unforgiveness grows deep inside us. We begin to play God by saying, "I can't forgive this person because of ..." Our abusers may have asked the Lord to forgive them later in life for what they did without us knowing it. Who are we, then, to withhold forgiveness, if the Lord has forgiven them? In this book, you will see, through the lives of different characters, how to find hope, healing, and the ability to forgive. The cycle of pain can be broken, and you can truly start to live again.
