The Power of Praying

A very sad and truthful tale of the woman known for her series of books on The Power of... now read how her only hope from her Stormy life set her free and helped her on the road to healing. God bless you Stormie!

My wife grew up with an abusive mother and a spineless father, so this book presented many parallels to her real life experiences. My wife left childhood with deep wounds, that left deep scars that just would not go away with without therapy and 100% dependance on Jesus Christ. Slowly but surely, the wounds and scars are being cleansed and healed. I strongly recommend this book for everyone, even if you've not lived in a house like Stormie's, you may know someone who has. This book will give you a glimpse of what many kids have to grow up with, and in many or probably most cases, live with the rest of their life. Most of all, she describes what I'm sure was a sometimes-painful-solution to acquiring a happy and normal life.

The heart breaking account of a young girl who grows up with a mountain of pain and loneliness! It helps us to see that we all have ghost in our closets and that we can over-come with the help of faithful friends who stick with us even when we turn our backs on ourselves. The miracle of Gods love and endurance and how we can continually lean on his awesomeness.

What an awesome book! I could hardly put it down. As a child, Stormie experiences physical and emotional abuse from her mentally ill mother, which led to Stormie making poor choices in her young adulthood. As an adult she experiences healing and forgiveness through Jesus Christ. THis book led me to give my life to the Lord eight years back, and I've been with Him ever since!

I love this book. Stormie relates the trauma and turmoil of her young life and how they led her to the point of complete physical and emotional breakdown. But when she opened her heart to Jesus, she began to learn how to walk in emotional and physical health and she relates the full story of how God miraculously and lovingly restored her to complete health in her body and most especially, her emotions. I recommend this book to many many people only I never lend out my copy - it's far too precious!

What a wonderful book to read for anyone who has lived with mental illness themself or was a member of a family with a parent that suffered from mental illness. It shows how one woman, having grown up in a two-parent household, had an absolutley horrific childhood. Her mother locked her in a closet for hours on end and continually verbally abused her as well. As she reaches adulthood, knowing how to relate to others is tough and causes much anxiety and pain. Through much error and wrong choices during her young adult years, she meets a man who tries to tell her about the love Jesus has for her. Not really understanding what it is all about, Stormie continues down the wrong path until one day she truly opens her heart up to God! Through reading this book, one is able to gain knowledge about people with mental illness as well as learn how to experience the love and forgiveness of God.
