Timeless and Poetic Wisdom in the aftermath of the unimaginable
“The author has graciously given the reader passage into her mind in the aftermath of losing her husband at an unspeakably young-age. The wisdom shared by the author is timeless, and serves as a lamp post for those unable to see light outside of darkness in the aftermath of the unthinkable. The author has brilliantly crafted this memoir to demonstrate how grief has the power to foster growth, healing, rebirth and new awakenings. The tandem mix of story, scripture and prose brings to life the remarkable way God will meet you in the pit of despair, when all hope seems lost, when you are searching for meaning amongst missing pieces...” - Amazon Customer

An Emotionally Driven “Come to Jesus Moment” for all to Read
“This book is epic. I literally read it in a few hours because it’s so enthralling. Every single page is simply a piece of art. Her story of coming closer to God and His power in her life through some of her darkest moments leaves the reader hanging onto every word. This book reminds you of the power and beauty we have within us as humans, but also of our flaws, errors and vulnerabilities. Her words and imagery of her emotions are devastatingly beautiful. After reading this book, I feel the desire to connect more with God because of how he has moved in her and Michael’s life. THANK YOU AMANDA FOR SHARING THIS MASTERPIECE. It takes a lot of courage and vulnerability- which is what our world needs more of. “ - Amazon Customer
