Elaine Fore Newberry

Palmetto Elementary
Liberty, South Carolina

I was lost. Looking for myself in all the wrong places. I hurt many people because I wasn't over my hurt. But after God grabbed and shook me, I realized that my identity is being a child of God, not in being a wife or even in a mother. Now I can be a wife and mother who is not self-serving, but is sacrifical towards the others in my life. It is no one's responsibility to make me feel good. I am complete in God. I thank God for loving me in spite of myself.
