In 1939, a young woman of 18 yrs. began to launch out onto a journey of Faith to study to become a Missionary to Africa. That plan was put aside to do her mother's bidding, and enter a marriage which ended in disaster. Her next marriage was in failure, also, and the downward spiral was well in motion. With four children to care for, this abandoned woman of God became a statistic. A liaison was formed with a kindly Preacher man, who seemed to really care. A child was conceived, and in panic, this Home Missionary Woman tried to undo what had been done. When that did not work, there was a hasty trip to fi nd the abusive, alcoholic husband, and reconciliation Within months there was a baby girl born, who became deeply loved by this precious mother, so scarred by the grievous wounds of life. Shortly thereafter, another divorce occurred, and the journey of fatherlessness had begun for this child. These letters were written from the Compassionate Heart of a Loving Heavenly Father, to this little girl of His, who didn't know she was deeply loved by Him, and who suffered excruciating emotional pain, lonliness and rejection, until the Bright Son of her Father's Love opened her broken heart and life to all the amazing possibilities of a Living Savior's Plan of Redemption at work in her life.
