She never experienced love in her family, only strife and contention. Coupled with a few more problems, which included her name, the author grew up with no sense of self-worth. She did not feel loved or wanted, and that just created problem after problem until she could not find a reason to continue in this life. There is a proverb in her language that says rotten meat will always attract flies. No matter how much one covers it, flies will catch the smell and will swarm around it. This proverb means that once something happens to you, it becomes a recurring theme in your life no matter how much you try to hide it.
Unfortunately for the author, this became the story of her life throughout her childhood until adulthood. It only got worse after marriage; at that point, the author completely lost her will to live and almost took her own life because if that was what life had to offer, then it was not worth living.
It was at this point in her life that she met Jesus and her journey as a Christian began. She has personally experienced the grace of God, and she can’t keep it to herself but has to shout it from the mountaintops.
