"It was a constant fight, though not with fists. It was a fight in my mind, my heart, my will. A tug-of-war between my pride and my desperation. Between my fear of God and my need for Him. I told myself I was protecting my heart, but really, I was hardening it. Every time God tried to pull me closer; through a sermon, a song, a stranger’s encouraging word, I pulled back harder. I wanted healing, but I wanted it on my own terms. I ran through relationships that couldn’t fill me. I ran through achievements that couldn’t validate me. I ran through distractions that couldn’t numb me. And yet, in the quiet moments when the noise faded, I could still feel the weight of my grandmother’s prayers pressing on my heart. It was as if Heaven had marked me, and no matter how far I ran, God had already drawn a circle around me and said, This one’s Mine. And that’s the thing about being a girl running, eventually, you run out of road. The constant fight turns into a quiet surrender. The chase ends when you realize He’s not behind you with wrath; He’s right beside you with mercy."

Childhood Scars is the first book in my memoir series, Uncovered Through Christ.

I confront childhood trauma in the areas of rejection, abandonment, and struggles with sexuality and addiction, and reveal how God’s grace brought healing and identity.
