Honest, uplifting, filled with the hope of Jesus
Thank you for putting into words what my heart crys out. My son Johnny is in heaven and I hope he meets Emma. Heather your book is beautiful and speaks to a grieving mother's soul. It breathes in truth and exhales hope. God is good, merciful and beautiful. I too would not choose this as my life, but am thankful for the blessings are many. It is well with my soul!
