Named by God
By Kasey Van Norman
Tyndale house
April 2012
Kasey experiences many tough situations in her teenage years. She went through eating disorders, addiction to sex, date rape and others. Then as an adult, suffered a painful miscarriage, was rejected by friends, her church and the community. She also was diagnosed with cancer and she took it hard when her mother past away from cancer.
Since Kasey has endured more than I did and she came out strong, I would consider her an idol. She trusted her faith in God took it step by step and always found her way back. It is tough to not worry about what people think of you and to accept yourself for who you are. Kasey tells how she took that step and shows it is possible. There are so many situations I could relate to, could go on forever.
I would give
Named by God two thumbs up! This story is a must read for young women, especially those who are high school age. I definitely recommend it to all women. Sometimes situations aren't as bad as they seem or the blessing are hidden in the grayness but see things from a new pair of eyes and things usually are better.
Thank you Kasey for having the courage to share your background. Your story has helped me!
