Acknowledgements and special Thanks to My Precious Savior Jesus who has been the inspiration for the story"The Truth Shall Set You Free" as He gave it to me in a dream many years ago. I believe this story was given to help those who have and are being hurt or abused.
Thanks also to my writing and critique groups, my husband, and my family. Many thanks to my grand-daughter, Tiffany and her gracious family for the use of her name. This fictional story does not deprict any part of her life. The only thing which I have brought to this story is Tiffany's love of God, her love of life and perserverence. |
