Victoria Strong never forgot the bond of love she thought she once had with her mother. Victoria longed for love, peace, and happiness while growing up in New York City with her mother and siblings. Her world was suddenly thrust into confusion. She often wondered, God, where are you? when faced with challenging circumstances from childhood forward. Growing up in church, she always thought of the scripture, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should never perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). But did He forget about her? No child should have had to endure so many of the situations she faced. Victoria invites you to read about her journey from fear to freedom as she learned to overcome and heal.
