Out Of The Shadows

About the Book

I am writing this book for those who have been wounded and bruised because of situations beyond their control, for those who have been taken from one place to another, tossed in despair and without a hope in the world. This is for you… THERE IS HOPE! This book is not only for adults, but for teenagers, and children who have dealt with and/or currently dealing with emotional mental and sexual abuse. Life seems to have many uncertainties and as we travel through it, we learn many different things. There is a saying “there is light at the end of the tunnel” and that is a true statement. The problem, however, is that in the state of mind we are sometimes in; we don’t see the end of the tunnel and we don’t see the light… we only see the present and it is darkness. There is a Prophet by the name of Kim Clement who has a saying “You’re somewhere in the future and you look much better than you do right now.” Believe this as you read this book.
