| "I am not taking care of you! You are not wanted here. You are worth nothing to me! Get out!" Joyce cowered under the onslaught from her enraged mother-in-law. Weeping, the young mother clutched her baby tightly to herself and staggered out of the compound. Her weary body trembled all over, and nagging questions tormented her mind. Where was Musikali? Why hadn't he contacted her even once since going to the city? Was he still alive? Which was worse, the uncertainty of his absence, or the drunken beatings when he was home? Sure nothing short of a miracle could redeem the shattered lives of this Kenyan coupe, but a miracle is exactly what you will read about in this store. And not just one miracle, but any miracles. This book will make you marvel anew at the redemptive love of God that heals the brokenhearted and gives beauty for ashes. Copyright 2011 TGS International | |

| As a girl, Lucy Winchester yearned for spiritual fellowship and
understanding. Her father, however, was a stern backwoodsman who stood
foursquare against religion of any sort. Lucy's lifelong spiritual
quest is set against a back drop of two difficult marriages that
included broken promises, sickness, numerous infant deaths, alcoholism,
tragic accidents, and poverty. From the unspeakable joy of learning to
know Christ as her Saviour, Lucy stumbled through years of spiritual
ignorance, doubt, disappointment, and despair until she eventually
found peace again in Christ. This true account reflects the
goodness of God patiently leading those who are thirsty to the fountain
of living water. Readers who have know personal tragedy will be
blessed with fresh courage by reading this book. | |
