PREFACE
ОглавлениеThis book contains the different stages of my life. Not many women went to college back in the 1950’s so I relied on the skills I learned from graduating high school to make a living after a contested divorce. I never took a class in writing, so please overlook the mistakes in grammar as I am writing this as an average mother telling my story of what happened through those learning years that brought the faith connection I found with Jesus Christ. It is this intimate love story that I have for the Lord which helped me to raise three loving, beautiful and well educated children. His love sustained me with wisdom, faith and strength which encouraged me to give them a strong, solid and safe environment without a father who did not want to be involved.
If parts of my life come across in a negative way, between husbands and family, it is the truth and writing it down was not very easy to do. It’s very difficult to put a positive attitude on that era of existence. Many tears have been shed as I wrote my story; as the memories came alive all over again. They say the truth hurts and it does but it goes even deeper than that. When so much negativity happens, it affects so many areas of one’s life; including security, trusting people, relationships and rejection. Today as a retired woman, writing my first book, I am still working through parts of my life to achieve the goal the Lord has for me.
I have found the peace that I live in now, through mercy, grace and repentance which comes from knowing our Savior.
