Little Girl Mended

No little girl should ever have to learn about sexual abuse at the hands of her father. But I did, and I survived. This is my story.Little Girl Mended is both a story of abuse and a story of redemption, spanning more than fifty years. From the loss of innocence at age seven, through ten-plus years of abuse, forty-five years of silence, and finally'well into my fifties'coming to understand that healing is possible. My walk through recovery coincided with a deepening of my relationship with Jesus Christ. Through that relationship I came to experience the Father's love'a love I couldn't fully understand while viewing everything through the distorted lens of incest.In this first-person narrative, I examine painful memories and difficult emotions, allowing myself to feel for the first time in my life. As I grapple with shattering hurt and long-buried pain, I come to realize there can be no healing without surrender. It's not in my strength that I find healing, but in my complete surrender to Jesus Christ.The power found in the pages of Little Girl Mended is there for you, too'whatever the circumstances of your own life's story.
