O knihe

This is a true story of how a young woman faced the abandonment of her husband, who left her with two small children while she was pregnant with her third child. With no money and limited working skills, and now with three children to provide for, Gladys sought all the help she could get. With her faith in God and encouragement and assistance from her family and others, she confronted the situation head-on. Swallowing her pride, she applied for public welfare, vowing it would be her steppingstone to a better life for herself and her children. And indeed, it was! After her baby was born, she attended school to become a vocational nurse. Finding a well-paying job brought her a newfound sense of self-respect. Before long, she was off welfare, with more money and pride than she had ever known before. Gladys shares her ups and downs, along with her advice and spiritual strength, especially with those women who are currently receiving government assistance. Her message is simple: "If I did it, then you can too! Let welfare be your stepping stone to a better life."
