Life's Torn Fragments Becomes a Robe of Many Colors

Book excerpt: Kathleen is desperate to find peace after years of mental and emotional torment which lead to drug addiction, suicide attempts and several psychiatric hospitalizations. She decides to set out on a spiritual journey of transforming prayer; in the hope of discovering what has been hidden in the caverns of her mind and heart. She is always asking the questions, "What is wrong with me?" and "How can I continue to live in this state of turmoil?" Unbelievable memories of childhood trauma were exposed. Revealing child parts of her heart at different ages, that were imprisoned within the pain and anguish of her past. Now, this pain, that had been locked away, could be safely processed and healed by the power of Jesus' love. Through a loving, healing relationship encounter with Jesus, she would be set free from the lies that had invaded her heart, which in turn kept God's Truth from taking up residence in her soul. Her quest for healing leads her into a spiritual battle for God's Truth to not only be discovered, but most importantly to be believed and received as the only Truth. She must choose to resist, by God's grace, the confusion, bewilderment and perplexity, that arise from the haunting falsehoods that have captivated her soul, from a lifetime of emotional damage. This book is her pilgrimage with Jesus toward wholeness, truth and freedom. The author's hope and prayer would be, that the reader would come to an understanding, that regardless of the pain which has taken place in an individual's life, that the lies which cripple a person are held within their emotional wounds. It is only by the power and love of the cross of Jesus Christ, that one can be brought into the Truth of who they truly are and how much they are loved.
