Summary
Patricia's story of abandonment and neglect has turned into a story of wholeness, joy and a blessed life! She tells her story of being raised by Christian grandparents and having to leave the safety and security of their home where she was exposed to abuse. "Where is God", she wonders and "Why doesn't he help me"? Patricia shares her childhood, her difficulty in trusting a God she couldn't see and the challenges and hardships that followed her decision to put her faith and trust in God. Why would God allow an innocent child to be born into a situation without the love and nurturing of a mother and father? Why would God allow a child to suffer abandonment, abuse and rejection? Patricia's story will encourage you and give you a window into how God uses suffering to draw you into an intimate relationship with him
