My Tree Had No Leaves: A Story of Adoption, Feeling Lost, and Healing from the Trauma

By David Douglas

My Tree Had No Leaves is the true story of an adoptee's struggle to find his true self. Through a relationship with Christ, the author becomes vulnerable as he shares the story of finding his biological family. The story takes you on a journey of struggle, the softening of his heart, and his accepting the reality of adoption. As the author "changes the relationship he has with his life," acceptance, understanding, and grace lead him to a discovery of truth.

Becoming a "volunteer" in recovery from a life of not knowing his biological family, he discovers that his biological family does not make him who he is.

This true story is filled with life issues. Some of them stem from a lack of self-worth; others are due to anger and resentment of being adopted.

Finally understanding everyone has struggles and life issues allowed the author to start the search for his true self.

The truth is, God loves you, He always has, and He always will.
