This is a true story of love, loss and new life. Suzie Borrows battled for her husband’s life praying for a miracle. God answered her, but not in the way she imagined. He had a plan that exceeded her dreams, and through undeniable revelations His purpose became her purpose.
My thoughts: This book hit home close to home for me. While I haven't lost a spouse, we did lose my sister in law to a brain tumor almost two years ago, so I could relate to that part of the story. You never truly get over losing someone you love, but that doesn't mean that it always hurts so much. I appreciate that this book shares the hope that we have in Jesus. The song "Homesick" by Casting Crowns sums up how I feel.
This is an excellent book to pick up, especially if you are working through grief.
I received this book from Celebrate Lit. This is my honest review and is in no way influenced by receiving a complimentary copy of this book.
