Beschreibung
Sweet Daughter of Eve follows the story of Suzanne, a young girl traversing the waves of child abuse, and her beloved Godfather, "Uncle Tommy" who has vowed to protect Suzanne, fulfilling her grandmother's dying wish.
The story flows as a back-and-forth model between Suzanne's life of child abuse and authentic letters from "Uncle Tommy". Each scene of abuse is coupled with relevant Scripture to emphasize the book's encompassing theme: there is no trial we endure that cannot be addressed in God's word. God gave Suzanne both a lifetime protector and the Bible as an encouraging reminder that when he said he will never leave nor forsake us, HE MEANT IT.
Although Suzanne was not aware of these Scriptures during her unspeakable episodes of child abuse, it does not change the fact that the Scriptures were still with her. John 1 says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him, all things were made; without him, nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." John 1: 1-5. In other words, the Word of God transcends the parameters of space and time. It is the personification of God himself even before he created the world, and it brings light to the world that will unfailingly outshine the darkest depths and valleys of life. Given that the Word of God already existed even before it was written, we know that the Word of God surrounds us and, as such, God's Holy Spirit is always with us. Sweet Daughter of Eve proves this very point by applying relevant Scripture to each scene of abuse.
I pray that Sweet Daughter of Eve will give you a greater revelation of God's unending presence throughout every moment of your life. While Sweet Daughter of Eve is the story I was born to write, I know God has so much more for me, and this is only the beginning. If you have ever experienced any abuse, or your are struggling to find God's purpose for their life. I pray that Sweet Daughter of Eve will be the beginning of a new journey for you towards healing and hope.
