It Wasn't All for Nothing
About This Book
Jump aboard this emotional roller-coaster ride through a painful past. A life full of suffering, rejection, loneliness, hatred, and heartbreaking memories of the author and his three sisters. The ways in which they were traumatized, abandoned, and made to fend for themselves. The author's experience of dealing with an alcoholic mother, being bullied, and turning to drugs, alcohol, and violence to cope with harsh reality. He shares his experiences of going in and out of jail and the hospital due to street fighting. He describes the joy of having a son and the pain of losing his mother, getting married, having a daughter, and being cast in the overwhelming role of being a parent without any experience of knowing what a normal family looks like. He shares with you the things that led him to God and how he experienced true healing. His hope is for others to find peace with their painful past too. God is your heavenly Father and will forgive you of your sin, but there are consequences; he will discipline his children. The author found this out the hard way when he wrote this book, facing ninety-one years in prison.
