Because Libri GmbH Because "I AM": Finding Purpose in the pain

You are never as alone as you feel. In her memoir, Because "I AM", Maribel Del Valle¿Berdiel traces the quiet, persistent presence of God through the chapters of her life she once believed were beyond repair. From the heavy silence of grief to the unexpected bursts of joy, she offers an unfiltered look at what it means to trust God when life breaks you open in ways you never imagined.A profound part of Maribel's story includes her medical menopause journey - a journey initiated by a total hysterectomy. She writes openly about the sudden hormonal crash, the brain fog, sleepless nights, anxiety, body aches, emotional shifts, and the invisible battles that are often misunderstood or overlooked. How she felt unheard or passed-over. Through the rawness of surgical menopause, she learned to listen for God in the quietest moments, the smallest signs, and the days when simply getting out of bed was an act of faith.Rather than offering "quick fixes," Maribel explores the messy reality of healing - the parts of the story that happen in the dark, behind closed doors, and deep within the heart. She reveals how God meets us exactly where we are, even when our bodies feel foreign, our emotions feel overwhelming, and our future feels uncertain.Because "I AM" is a journey of rediscovering identity, womanhood, and purpose through grief, medical trauma, restoration, and unexpected grace. It is a testimony that while our circumstances shift and our bodies change, the presence of the "I AM" remains steadfast, loving, and always present.
