“Every moment of every day you are in an invisible battle that ever rages on”

New favorite quote: “God has taught my heart to sing again, and tucked away in the minor key, I hear His promise of all that is yet to come.”

Rereading

Goodreads has the wrong # of pages listed (at least for the version I have) so for OCD purposes I need to note that I am actually 79% done.

Very good

You were not purchased with any common currency like gold or silver, but with the precious blood of Jesus.

Epic so far! Impactful. Heart-gripping.

Possibly one of the best faith based books on loss and the pain of losing someone you love

Own the physical but listening to the audiobook. Already loving it!

"Hurting with hope still hurts."

Really touching book about worldly loss and growth of faith

“God doesn’t expect you to be happy about what has been torn from your hands—whether it’s a marriage, your health, a job, or someone you love—but if you are willing, he can turn your trash into triumph.”

Each time this is exactly what I need. *cries and scribbles notes all over the margins*

The underlining and notes in the margins I've made are impressive. I've already cried and worshiped and lots in between. Somehow, despite large gaps of time in between reading it always seems to be exactly what I need.

I'm already crying in a room full of people.

Ahhhmazing!

2 Timothy 1:10 says it all. Written by a pastor who lost his 5 year old daughter. He shares how he and his family have coped with grief and used her story to bring hope to others also experiencing grief. He writes with urgency, encouraging readers to understand that Jesus came to abolish death and bring light, and knowing that changes everything about how we live this life.

This book is fantastic, started reading it this morning and haven’t been able to put it down...

Gotta run toward the roar!!! ❤️❤️❤️

This book has already changed my views on life and how to deal with pain and struggles. Must read for anyone going through a struggle or a pain in there life.

I could read his books all day. His voice and the words he writes hit the soul.

"It's about who you are becoming more than where you are going"

Unbelievably heart wrenching, yet incredibly gripping.
