Palm tree: This type of tree is one that can endure heat at its hottest, and hurricanes at their strongest, and has the resiliency to snap back and stand tall. Here within these pages tells a true story of a girl who can very much relate to palm trees. The high winds of life as a child fiercely roared against her, making her feel as if she would break at any moment. But just as she surrendered to the God of all creation, and as He calmed her storm, she slowly eased into the way of life that she was created to live. Standing tall, and resilient. May you read through her journey and realize that you too have access to the saving grace she experienced and can stand tall and strong, like a palm tree. *For the protection and privacy of others, names in this story have been changed.*
