LONGWOOD, FL--Within the pages of author Douglas S. Anderson's new title, Her Name is Happiness: The Inspirational Account of the Life of Happiness Emejuru ($16.99, paperback, 978-161579-241-2), readers will be inspired to cling to the Lord through every storm that comes their way. For a young Nigerian girl named Happiness, life's journey became almost unbearable. She endured refugee status in the Biafra War, an arranged marriage to a man she had never met, being smuggled across the U.S.-Mexican border, experiencing the toll of a physically and mentally abusive husband, standing in food lines, and living in a homeless shelter. Through it all, Happiness learned to draw closer to God and today owns her own business and understands her life's purpose. This is a compelling story of the power of destiny on a life surrendered to God, and what amazing things God will do if His children just trust him.
"This book will strengthen your ability to see God's hand upon your life," the author says. "The story of Happiness Emejuru is all true. [I hope] that the reader can discover that the power of destiny on a life surrendered to God and the amazing things that will occur in life if we just trust in Him."
