21 year old Heidi shares her story of how she was healed of Anorexia. She reflects on bible verses that helped her to realise that her identity and value comes from the fact that we are handmade by God and not from the distorted self image eating disorders create.

‘Wow! What a touching story, there are a lot of girls who are going through what Heidi went through and this book will touch their hearts as it touched mine’
Pastor Stuart Elliot, former Hull City player

‘Heidi’s story isn't dissimilar to the increasing number of young people who are developing eating disorders in order to conform to the unrealistic expectations that society presents to them.

I hope that people reading this book will realise that ultimate satisfaction in who we are comes from accepting that God, our creator, has made us who we are and that our self-esteem and self-worth needs to be rooted in Him.’
Mark Tiddy, Youth Leader

This is a lovely introduction to the walk of faith in which we learn to lean on the Lord Jesus. It will prove to be a valuable book for those searching for a closer walk with Him.
