Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invisible Masks Traumatic experiences, rejection, and abuse can cause us to function as opposites of our true selves. We often say I’m fine when we’re emotionally, physically, and spiritually on edge. We don’t want the people around us to know we are hurting or struggling because exposing our weakness makes us vulnerable. In Who I’ve Become, Sonya shares her own painful experience as a victim of childhood sexual abuse—from being pursued by one family member’s perversions to being used by several others and lying to keep up the facade that everything was okay when she was hurting inside. Sonya's story shows how her abusers stole her ability to trust her parent’s love just like the enemy tricks us into thinking we can’t take our burdens to the Lord and leave them there. This book shows how we all wear masks at one time or another to cover up our frailties, and the danger that comes when we lose our purpose and ourselves. More than a testimonial, this is a resource to help you take off the mask and find the person God created you to be. Who I’ve Become is a mirror of truth. Are you ready to meet the TruU?
