About this ebook

Up out of Egypt is the personal story of Helen Marsh. Her story begins as a young, rebellious teenager, who from the age of 12 was in search of acceptance from her peers and a life of fun. By the time she was 14, she became sick and when hospitalized, it was discovered that she not only suffered from glandular fever, but that she was pregnant. To cover her wrong she lied again, telling her parents she had been raped. The police were called in and one lie lead to another . . . When finally the truth about her life and lifestyle, and the mess she had created was revealed, she was sent to a home for unmarried mothers until after the birth of her baby, where it was arranged for her baby to be given up for adoption. She had no say in the matter and once the adoption papers were signed, the law stated she would never see her baby again. What pain and trauma she and her family suffered, yet faithfully and lovingly her parents stood by her and saw her through the ordeal. She was 15 years old. Sadly she did not learn from her hard lesson. Desperate to fill a void in her life she fell in love and was pregnant again that same year. Her parents allowed her to marry. The struggle now moved to a teenage marriage and the birth of three children in 3 years. But God was with Helen even when she was unaware of His Presence, and she is not only still married to the same man she married at 16 years of age, but she also reunited with the daughter she relinquished. Up out of Egypt reveals God's Grace, forgiveness, redemption and reconciliation. It is a story of His redeeming love.

Helen Marsh

"Up out of Egypt" is a personal story, an autobiography which tells of a troubled teenager, looking for love in all the wrong places. Helen was a rebellious girl, who, from the age of 12, was searching for acceptance. This resulted in a pregnancy at the age of 14 and the adoption of that child. The story tells of the heartbreak of giving up her baby and the continued search for love to fill her empty arms. Pregnant again at 15, and married at 16, the struggle now moves to teenage marriage and the birth of three children in three years. It also tells of new life in Christ at 32 and how He taught Helen to develop a loving, successful marriage; to override her insecurities and believe that God would enable her to all He called her to do. Throughout the story there is a thread which holds together, the story of adoption, the search for the adoptee to find her birth mother, her success and the ultimate outcome of that relationship. It is the story of letting go the painful past and looking forward to a new tomorrow. Up out of Egypt reveals God's Grace, forgiveness, redemption and reconciliation. It is a story of His redeeming love. This story will be one of hope and encouragement to the reader in many areas of their lives, i.e. the teenage years, marriage, depression, those seeking Christ, parents who have family members who have gone astray, and those who have experienced adoption.
