Daddy why have you abandoned us the book

Introduction

At a young age it did not matter that my father did not pay child support. But it was a struggle for my mother to raise his children with out his financial support. I did not know the importance of money. I just wanted my dad. Little did I know that it would be more then my Father I would miss. While growing up, we would also suffer because of the lack of our Father's financial support. At the age of sixteen, I needed to find myself and quickly. I was a

young man bound for destruction. My self-esteem was rock bottom, I cared about nothing because no one cared about me. I started to realize that my life was like a puzzle with missing pieces. With out those pieces, I did not know what my purpose in life was. I had no identity, no direction, no meaning to my life. My life held no value and certainly I felt no love in my

life.

The only thing that stuck to me like glue was low self-esteem. He (self-esteem) was my only friend, and the more selfe-steem spoke to me the more he convinced me that my life had no purpose. One day I was going through so many things that I had no answers to many of my questions. I felt like I was being transformed incompletely, and I did not understand why my life seemed so confused. I tried hard to find the missing pieces to my life, and in the mist of trying to find myself I fell into a state of depression. That's when low self-esteem found me and convinced me to try to commit suicide

I had just gone through a divorce at the age of twenty-four. I did not know how to deal with the divorce and all the pain divorce brings, I was not able to see my children when I wanted to see them. I know their mother was telling them untrue reasons why I did not pick them up on visitation days. The thought of my children thinking that their Dad did not want any thing to do with them had an effect on me, and the thought of my children growing up without me, along with other problems is the reason why I tried to commit suicide.

After I got well, I knew it was God's grace that had kept me alive, although I continued to feel that my life was not complete. I realized no matter how hard I tried to put the pieces of the puzzle to my life together, I could not do it because my missing pieces were with my father and those pieces were now too small for the puzzle. One day God found me and lifted me up

out of low self-esteem, turned my life around, and showed me the puzzle and how to find the missing pieces to it.

God had a plan. The pieces were not missing pieces. They were God's slots to put His pieces in. God had a greater plan for my life. I can clearly see now what his plan was for my life because God spared my life. He did not let me succeed in committing suicide. God has instead given me the gift of fathering children. In the Book of

Psalm 78:56. 5 He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our forefathers to teach their children, 6 so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Not having an earthly father present in my life as a child to teach me what GOD commanded earthly fathers to teach their children is what has prompted me to write this book.

NOTE:

To all my readers:

I would like to thank you for supporting me in some kind of way. Whether you purchase the book or visited my Website or supported me with words of encouragements. I appreciate your kindness. Importantly, I would like to honor and praise our heavenly Father for being the inspiration in this book. I was inspired by God years ago, and just like many people I was reluctant because of my education level. I never written a book before, and thought there is no way I will write one without having any experience. But if you ever experience God pulling on you to do something then, you know exactly what I went through.

Please realize I am aware of the poor grammar that is in the book, I would like to apologize to you for this matter. These errors are being corrected however there are about 500 book that has been printed with errors. Unfortunately, I relied on a professional person to edit, and proofread the book. After the release of my book, I noticed a few errors, but was unable to stop the publishing. This may have a negative impact to some people, I'm asking that you look pass the errors and receive the message the book is sending. It's the message that I want to be an impact. In spite of the errors I believe that many will be blessed from the book. Please, have the heart of God, because the purpose of the book is to bring about a change in our absentee fathers.

I say this from the testimony of God's word in the days of Moses. Reading from Exodus 4:10-12 10Then Moses said to the Lord, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before nor since You have spoken to Your servant but I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.

11So the Lord said to him, who has made man's mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? Have not I, the Lord? 12Now therefore, go and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall say

Amen, and Praises Unto God Always!
