Smile at the Future

As I knelt beside the toilet while pulling my hair back to purge the days after finishing high school, I would've never imagined that place of brokenness to make up the pages of my life - lest the pages of this book seven years later. But it is. I've fought on the battleground of eating disorders - and won - and so can you. Have you ever struggled with striving, self-hatred and stating, "I'm beautiful, there's no flaw in me"?

Have your own or others' scrutinizing looks and remarks made you wonder if you can ever smile - even laugh - without fear of the future?

Smile at the future invites you on a quest to look beyond appearance and how others perceive you to embark on an inside-out transformative journey of replacing lies with truth. It's not a book teaching you how to diet. It's a book teaching you how to truly live. By going to the root of the issues, you'll learn how to not only break free but also stay free.

Sandras story of being a lover of God and a leader in church and still struggling to sense her own worth, will help you confront the deception that can happen when doing the right things have taken the place of receiving the love and weight-lifting Jesus freely offers. Be encouraged through a tangible testimony that a life bound by legalism can be made gentle, powerful, and pliable in the Potter's hands.

This book is not primarily about what has happened to you, but rather, about what to do about it. Freedom is your portion. A life with purpose waits - awakened to your hearts' desires - freed to serve others in love.

You truly can defy your eating disorder and discover your true design.
