Because I Tell You the Truth

Suzanne Dorsey spent her formative years feeling like she wasn’t allowed to say what she really felt because it would cause pain to her family and friends. Although everyone knew her as an outspoken person, not everything she said represented the truth in her heart. It wasn’t until she married, moved away from her family and small hometown, and began writing down all of her thoughts and emotions that she discovered a path to emotional and psychological freedom—through the truth. Because I Tell You the Truth shares her journey toward realizing that for thirteen years God had been healing her pain without her even knowing it. It is a compilation of earnest, heartfelt, and truthful poetry, letters, and thoughts on the path to recovery. She pairs each piece of creative writing with commentary on life events and circumstances that inspired it. The result is an inspirational example for anyone who finds disappointment as a way of life, for those who feel voiceless and trapped, and for the brokenhearted in need of the kind of healing truth and freedom that only God can bring. Discover your inner courage, and live the life of truth that God intended.
