I used to believe that hiding behind my pain would make it go away. For years, I brushed off my parents' divorce with a mere: "It-doesn't-really-bother-me" reaction, as I rationalized my abandonment in justifying "they did what they had to do." But I didn't want to admit that I never felt whole or grounded because of their separation. I was greatly impacted by their divorce and didn't realize it until years later. Unfortunately, this awareness came after me repeating many of their relational mistakes. But I can talk about that now without shame.I refuse to hide Behind The Face any longer.

Change is the only thing that is constant in life. Who you are as a mature adult is different from who you were in your adolescence and young adult phases. The language spoken, the advice given, and even the styles of fashion do not look the same. So goes the story of life. This is my story. This is my song.The short stories, poems, and thought-provoking dialogue written on the pages of this book express my creativity, wisdom, and ideas of love and life. My hope, however, is that all who read from these pages will express their own creativity in ways that will encourage, uplift, and add joy to others, turning their stories into songs and life lessons into lyrics.

Almost 15 years ago my life changed forever. I entered into a relationship that went against all I had been taught and believed. The struggles, convictions (and most of the time) condemnations left me crippled in every way: mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.After much prayer and reaffirming myself, I was able to accept God's divine love again just as I did when I was a child. I was reintroduced to Him during the most crucial time in my life and got to know who He really is. I gained strength, resilience, and the true experience of God's love for me in spite of my shortcomings. Not only was I able to receive love, but I learned how to give it.I'm unapologetically ME despite all that I have been through. This gave me permission to recognize the gifts, talents, qualities, and greatness that lay dormant during that season of doubt. I hope my story gives you the courage and strength to be FREE in who you are because being bound just won't do. Wherever you are in your life may the peace of God be there with you. Above all things never forget that He loves you and has a great plan for your life through your story. Jeremiah 29:11, ';For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'

"Pastor Barfield writes, 'It is time for Christians to take the masks off and stop pretending that their lives are perfect.' I needed to hear that! Sometimes we think that perfection is required to be a good Christian, but all we need to be is real. As you read this book, you will see that some of Pastor Barfield's real life experiences resemble your own. See how God orchestrated her life for His glory and be encouraged to hold on, trust, and see Him work it out for you, too. I'm proud to endorse this book, as I'm sure that you will not only find her story relatable but inspirational. Pastor Barfield gives you a close-up look at her valley experiences, which are sometimes heart-wrenching, as well as her mountain-top experiences, which will inspire you and give you hope. I pray that as The Wounded Healer goes forth, it will help those battling with the 'woe is me' syndrome to see obstacles as stepping-stones on the journeys to developing a more intimate relationship with God. I was inspired, and I know you will be also."- Chaplain Carolyn Davis, In His Presence Ministries
