Sometimes, it's hard to understand others until we realize first hand what it's like to stand in his/her shoes. In this piece, I've written about a family whose lives have been torn apart by simple mistakes made along the way. By holding to the truth of Romans 8:28, each character is forced to press on in faith by trusting God to mend the things that they themselves can not change. By accepting the past and embracing the present, they finally become free and get the courage to love each other and life even with all of the flaws. Just as roses grow with weeds and thorns, we each will have issues, problems, and mistakes that will choke the joy of life from us if we are not careful.
You probably don't know me, and no, I don't know you, but the purpose of this book is to reveal to you what God can do. It says in Jeremiah 29:11 that God has a plan and purpose for our life, but in order to live that purpose out, we first have to grasp the fact that we're worth the pain, worth the struggle, and worth God's grace. If you don't believe in the value that God has on your life, then you can't live right no matter how hard you try. It hurts me to see how so many Christians in today's time have yet to realize their worth in God. If many of them knew their worth, lifestyles would change. If many of them knew their worth, church walls would be unable to contain the praise. In order to truly be effective in the Kingdom, you have to know who you are. God stands ready, waiting to receive us, but we have to be willing to receive and accept ourselves even with all of our faults. After reading this piece, I pray that you are encouraged to press on in faith with a renewed, bold confidence in God himself. I hope that you enjoy this book as much as I've enjoyed writing it. God bless!!!!
