Publisher's Synopsis
Beginning in early childhood, Iris' world becomes one of distinct contrasts. There are times when she experiences exhilarating joy-as when running and playing with neighborhood friends. At other times, her joy is displaced by confusion, fear, and depression-their source lying dormant in her subconscious mind. Deep down dwells a shameful "secret" which she recalls much later in life. Circumstances drive Iris to experience a life full of challenges. However, she learns to recognize the triggers that turn her joy to fear-the dominant one being a sense of humiliation. Fortunately, she is equipped with a strong survival instinct. Iris reaches out and manages to catch hold of a spiritual entity that welcomes, enfolds, and guides her back to peace when she needs it most. It is the Spirit of God who gives her the love and strength to endure her often rocky road. Prayer is the key that breaks the yoke of fear and discouragement in her life.
