LEVITTOWN, N.Y., May 13, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Healing is a God-given gift to all sufferers. It is not the flesh that gets inflicted but rather the person's soul and as such, healing must be deeper and stronger. A dramatic look at inner healing and child abuse is all set to begin with the release of Rising From the Ashes, a touching new book authored by Jolainne BoRienne.
Rising From the Ashes is a compilation of many religious poems that recalls one woman's journey, after healing for many years from the pains of childhood abuse, to continued growth in healing her soul. While much attention has been given towards child abuse and bringing the abusers to justice, that is only the first small step for the victim to finally bring to recognition the insidious, unseen effects that abuse has caused psychologically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. The author herself was one of those victims.
Richly-layered and inspirational, Rising From the Ashes has come into being after years of a soul-searching journey healing from childhood abuse. The vivid imagery of poetry, using seasonal changes to illustrate the cyclical process of healing, especially when the process allows the Spirit to work hand in hand with one's own difficult emotional work, gives wonderful affirmation to the healing process. To order a copy of this engaging read, be sure to visit your local bookstore or shop online at Xlibris.com today.
