Counsel for the hopeless, desperate and hurting

Everyone experiences hurt at some point in his/her life - it's unavoidable in a world populated by other human beings. We see things and do things. We react to incidents and people and their reactions to those incidents. To some extent, most of us live with holes in our hearts, forcing us to deal with that void every day, day in and day out, as we move through our lives. We are all, in some way, orphans with orphaned hearts. Pastor Treat knows whereof he speaks. He has been there, too. You can tell by the insight he demonstrates as he describes how we operate as a result of the hurt, the abandonment and the abuse we have sustained over time. But he also writes of hope and of the awesome gift offered to us by a Father who is always there. If *you* have been there, lonely and hurt, read this book and take those steps to bring yourself back to the One who will never leave you nor forsake you.
