Chasing the Light: a Journey Through the Healing Lori Graves

Lori is a fifteen year old runaway. This story tells of her early experiences which led to increasing victimization where she suffered physical and mental abuses, leaving her in a precarious emotional state. Through her experiences she shares how her Faith in God and His promises carried her through difficult times, clinging to God for strength and endurance. This is not her story but of how God's Love and purpose for her and her life supplied her with Grace in times when she would not have survived, otherwise. It tells how Jesus met her where she was and how He never left her side. "Chasing the Light" is a testimony of God's unfailing Love and Grace that, no matter how badly you have been hurt or how much you have suffered, if you ask Him, Jesus will heal. This is a tale of how Jesus met me where I was, sustained me, gave me the strength to forgive that I did not have, how He went on to heal me and show me how to live with His peace, His joy, and most importantly His Love in my everyday life. God taught me not to survive but to thrive
