She Found His Grace – A True Story of Hope, Love, And Forgiveness After Abortion
She Found His Grace is a fitting title for this book. It’s unfathomable that s 13- year-old girl experienced rape, pregnancy, and a forced abortion. Abortion was supposed to be the answer after her trauma. But this was furthest from the truth. Terrible things occurred behind the doors of the abortion clinic. Her abortion was a secret that Serena buried for years. The abortion tore her family apart and nearly destroyed her life. How does this precious child move forward from the pain and trauma associated with these life-changing events? What will her future hold?
Serena’s lived in a dysfunctional family, and moved a lot. While living in a rented farmhouse, Serena was introduced to Jesus. Mr. Whistler, the landlord, was a kind and generous man who often provided her family with food and gifts. He was a Sunday school teacher and invited Serena and her sister to attend church with his family. Her home life was filled with constant anxiety. But at church on Sundays, peace and comfort were found, and she wanted that kind of difference in her life.
Mr. Whistler gave her a gold-colored Good News Bible with Psalm 119:105 written on it. “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” A seed was planted in her young heart, though she didn’t fully grasp God’s love for her. Years later, God would reveal Himself to her in a profound way, an intervention she’ll never forget.
Serena Dyksen opens the doors of her heart as she candidly shares the pain, shame, guilt, and unforgiveness associated from having an abortion. The Lord does create beauty from ashes. This book is living proof that all things are possible through Him.
Healing and restoration required a great deal of effort on her part but it was not in vain. She discovered a compassion and desire to help others with all decisions regarding abortion. She walked the walk, and knew firsthand what was required to bring wholeness back into their lives. Today; she is a pro-life advocate who speaks with authority on this issue, and works tirelessly so changes in legislation will occur.

Christians and non-Christians alike need to read this book. It will open eyes and hearts to the reality of abortion, and how this industry coerces countless mothers and fathers to end the life of their child, causing them to believe the lie, that abortion is the best solution to their pregnancy dilemma.
After reading She Found His Grace, I understand why it was given the subtitle: A true story of hope, love, and forgiveness after abortion. All this and more are found within the pages of this amazing book.
