Böcker av Shelly Stevenson

The more life hurts the harder and faster we should run to the Lord God Almighty's powerful arms. They're open wide and waiting to comfort us. Years ago, I couldn't have imagined not hurting. My marriage was ending in a public and painful way and not what I wanted. I couldn't imagine reaching a day when it didn't hurt. But then there was God. By the grace of God I have journeyed through to the other side. I can see the good. I am better. I am stronger.How much does God see? Everything. How much does He care? With His whole being. 

My marriage crumbled under the weight of sin. I hadn't meant to be such a failure. I truly loved God. What I had always wanted most, more than anything, was to be a good wife and mother. On the outside, it seemed like I was a woman who had it all together, but the problems weren't on the outside; they were deep in my heart, so deep I couldn't see them anymore but God could. He was about to answer my prayers to change and use me. It would take "the rug being pulled out from under my feet" for God to capture my full, undivided attention where my marriage was concerned.
