Child of love: Fatherhood that transforms

Child of Love

Emilio A. Reyes

For the first time Emilio shares his story with raw and unflinching honesty. He takes you into his world as he faces the difficulties of growing up without a father. It is the personal story of the challenges he faced as a child and the incredible journey he took to become the outstanding husband, father, and leader that he is today. This book is a message of hope and healing, and of course a testament to God’s love and grace that motivates you to be the best version of yourself no matter the circumstance. More than a book about one man’s life, it is a story that will bring encouragement, inspiration and teachings that will help you change the course of your own life story.

The toll of abandonment can be very overwhelming. Loneliness, anguish, and anxiety about establishing solid relationships can become a difficult burden to bear. This is a story of transformation and light for those who have seen the scourges of darkness and abandonment.

The beginning of this story of transformation goes back to a boy whose father abandoned him at an early age. Feelings of loneliness and torment persistently overwhelmed him. One day he acquired a Bible and read in it the following words: ＂even if your father and mother abandon you, the Lord will take care of you.＂

The presence of abandonment can be so painful that it can permeate not only the development of the life cycle, but also how we establish relationships, friendships, family, and children. However, the encounter with Jesus brought hope and life. As a result, it brought true transformation.

Being a Child of Love is much more than the search for parenthood. It is experiencing the immeasurable love of God and having the assurance that He will never leave us.
