These force Willow to confront the secrets she\u2019s kept for so long. But will she ever be able to see a person behind a face? Or will she continue to let her faith be hidden by her biggest fears?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>    You can click the button below for a free download of \u201cThe Face You See,\u201d or visit the \u201cMy Writing\u201d page of this website to find it there!
