Nicci Jackson-Steward’s new book Purpose Saved My Life ($8.99, paperback, 9781498499576; $4.99, eBook, 9781498499583) tell the story of the author, who wanted to be loved by
those she loved; yet, what she received for the love she gave to others was
sadness, pain and adult experiences too mature for a young child to have. Author
Nicci LJ Steward was only five when a family friend took advantage of her,
which led to an unfortunate pattern of abuse and rape by family friends and
relatives. The discomfort and confusion she had from the molestations and rapes
triggered a perchance for anger and struggle with violent tendencies. As Nicci
became an adult, she experienced more heartache from broken marriages and
adultery from her husband and these events only intensified her anger and her
drug and alcohol use.
However,
Nicci’s new autobiography is not only recounting the horrible treatment she had
from loved ones, but also celebrating what God was able to do to rectify the
mistreatment and turn her life around as an example of His glory. Nicci
describes the events of her life in poetic detail, presenting readers with
honest emotions and words of warning to protect little ones from the atrocities
she sustained in her childhood. Once she recalls the divine intervention into
her life, and her heart, from God, she excitedly conveys the truth that God can
heal all pain: whether from abuse to marital neglect to one’s own insecurities.
Now
a single mother of three, Nicci desires for her story to be an example to
others that the world is teaching our children about love, life and purpose for
themselves, when they should be learning these attributes from Jesus.
