[Erin French · Rating 5 out of 5]

I started this beautiful book ages ago. Even though I may not have been diligent in reading it, every time I picked it up, it filled me with love and hope. We truly belong to a good and loving Father, and this book gently and reverently reminds me of that.

To those who may not know the Lord, I encourage you to read this with an open mind. This is not a “religious” book written by a “religious” person, but a book about a relationship with the God of the universe. A deeper and more lasting relationship than any we can have on this earth. It’s Truth, and not some random relative truth, but true deep and unfathomable Truth. Blessed be the Lord.

Not what I expected but really good

I love the fact that Sheila dedicated the book to her mom and recognized her mom’s love for Jesus and the impact it has had on her life.

Inside this book, is so much love and the differences in how they can be used in our life. She goes back to the beginning of creation through a love that never lets go of us!

A quote I loved in this book says “We have a present promise and a future certainty.”

In this very small but moving book, Sheila Walsh shows us that God knows all that is true about us-past,present and future-and He is crazy about us! By using her own bout with depression and various stories from the Bible, stories of real people and assorted quotes, she shares a remarkable love story of a God who forgives his people if they only ask.

Very touching, personal account of a woman struggling with mental illness and emotional problems. Her writings spoke to me in a big way at a very difficult time in my life.
