All in God's Time, My Sons

by Geoff Moeller

On a Saturday morning at the end of November 2008, a young family suffered the loss of two sons and the permanent paralysis of another as a result of an automobile accident. Rather than tear the family apart, the tragedy drew them closer and touched the hearts of people in and out of their Catholic community. The boys' father began writing to express the painful emotions he felt and the faith that supported him. These poems and reflections, though heart-wrenching, have been presented in the hope they may bring comfort to other victims of tragedy by witnessing to the healing and transforming power of faith, family and love.

I recently became acquainted with the author of this book, who kindly forwarded a copy to me. I'm grateful to him for sharing his journey into the unimaginable pain and loss - and ultimate consolation - he and his wife experienced as a result of a tragic accident. It's heart-wrenching and a beautiful testimony of faith and hope.
