Just Let Me Live Jenafeca Smith

Humans were created as social beings to connect to and live in relationship with others as well as with the God who created them. When either of these connections and relationships are broken for whatever reason, sadness and despair can follow. In a compilation of compelling, heartbreaking, and uplifting stories and dramatic plays, Jenafeca H. Smith depicts the lives of diverse characters whose relationships have been severed by abuse. Because of their faith in God, these individuals somehow learn to survive and thrive, trust again, and attain a second chance at love and life, despite their hardships. Through their challenges and victories, the characters teach others that obstacles can be transcended with help from God who heals our wounds. Just Let Me Live shares a collection of short stories and dramatic plays that encourage all of us to shun abuse and overcome our hurdles in life by inviting Jesus into our hearts. "The Lord tests those who do right, but he hates the wicked and those who love to hurt others" (Psalm 11:5 NCV).
