I Arise, I Arise: Against All Odds I Arise

When we experience painful encounters, our first reaction is to suppress. We would rather forget it than to live with it. We want everyone to have the comfort of thinking our lives have been nothing short of perfection while we toss and turn nightly because of the demons we have protected. It is not until we finally realize that there is freedom in their exposure, there is liberation in our truths, and that there is healing in revealing, that we begin to open our mouths and speak.For us as parents, grandparents, uncles, aunties, and so forth to not raise a nation of dysfunctional adults, we must acknowledge that it is time for deep down healing to take place within us. It is time for the shackles of our pasts to be broken. It is time for us to acknowledge the root of our innermost issues, deal, forgive, release, and allow healing to begin.In this book, Author Tedria Denise walks her readers through many of the trials and tribulations she endured and overcame. Through this book, she has found freedom in her testimony. It is her prayer that readers will pinpoint the pain of their pasts and move forward into a spiritually healthy future.
