  Losing her mother at 15, Analee’s life changed dramatically. Thrust into a manipulative, controlling, and abusive environment, Analee’s childhood dreams were shattered, and her future was stolen by those who’d promised to love and protect her. 
  Forced into a loveless marriage at 18, Analee, like her mother before her, tried to make the most of the brutal situation, conforming to the will of her husband and in-laws through years of suffering and abuse. The neglect of her husband and the growing vitriol of his family took a terrible toll on Analee, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. There seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel. 
  Recalling her mother’s faith, Analee turned to Jesus—to survive. 
  "He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever. He who sits on the throne says, ‘Look, I am making everything new!’” 
  (Rev. 21:4-5) 
  Analee’s story is one of faith’s triumph over tragedy, the sufficiency of God’s grace and strength in our weakness, and the discovery of His overwhelmingly tender love. When Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith enters in, tragedy, grief, and brokenness will not have the last word. 
  Today, happily remarried, Analee embraces the legacy of her mother Alma, following in her footsteps, ministering encouragement and hope to others.
