"I really don't know what you would do with the likes of me?" I cried to God. I had been battered, abused and abandoned as a child. My dad killed himself when I was three and my mom died when I was six. Three of my brothers killed themselves. I was divorced by the time I was twenty-one and as a single parent tried to make a life for me and my son. After two more abusive relationships, I just gave up. It was then that my eight-year-old wanted to take me to church on Mother's Day. I went and didn't like it. The Pastor called on me later and gave me the Gospel. In desperation, I called out to God and He heard me, forgave me and gave me a new life. I am now fifty years old and He has never left me nor forsaken me, just as He promised.(Hebrews 13:5). Marianne.
