This is Barbaras story, a story of growing up in a dysfunctional home, later, promiscuity, divorce, grief and ultimately, extreme mental illness. It encompasses her struggle to overcome bipolar tendencies, irrational fears, deep depression and anxious thoughts which had led to countless hospital stays, where prominent psychiatrists had given up in their treatment.
After Barbaras twin sister passed away in 2013, she thought her life was over. But, the Lord was not finished with her yet. He led her to a man who walked with her through her depressed and disturbed mind, and eventually guided her into a world she had never known before, a world of light , love and happiness.
It is a story of how Jesus Christ reaches into a persons darkness and offers them hope, peace and true joy. For Barbara, mental illness is a thing of the past, because faith in Christ helped her change her focus and led her into the light.
