Tapestry of Trust by Mary Annslee Urban

by 
(White Rose Publishing 2012) 

Isabelle and Charlie...separated by six years of bitterness and pain between them.


Urban's story weaves a beautiful tale of love, forgiveness, and above all, trust. This story kept me continuing on to the next page, then the next. A few twists of the storyline's thread had me pleasantly surprised, especially when the one person asking for forgiveness was the one person I never thought would ask.

Like a tapestry where the threads weave in and out to create a picture, words alone will never fully showcase the threads of redemptive love, forgiveness, trust, and sacrifice that wove a beautiful and soulful story.

Tapestry of Trust is a book to which I will always return. Forever will it remind me that love never fails.

God's Name is a Tower by LeAnne Blackmore (Ambassador International 2019) "You are my strong tower--" This line from the book resonates. With its whimsical illustrations, the book captures the essence of that statement. A child's faith is innocent and our faith should be like that, too. Each page affirms the truth of the Bible and of Jesus. It is a wonderful book that will build up a child's confidence and strength. Little truths about blessings, how Jesus sees us, the power of His word, and so on are brought to the young reader as a beautifully written rhyme. One unique addition, which I haven't seen in any other book, is the added Scripture at the bottom of the page. It relates to the story and gives even more depth to the truth taught. Of course the best part was saved for last: "For You are my Comforter,  You are my Guide,  To You I will run-- I'll find shelter inside." This may be written for ch

Shirley Corder's Strength Renewed: Mediations for Your Journey through Breast Cancer Shirley Corder's Strength Renewed is not just for those who suffer or have suffered from breast cancer...it is also for those who suffer from depression, anxiety, lethargy, pain, and all other "cancers" in life. From page one I found myself uplifted by Shirley's words. Although I have read the passages of Scripture before, I reread them with new understanding and new life. Just as her book provides new life to hope. I am listing a few things at the beginning that captured me so thoroughly that I went back and reread that chapter of meditation: " Jesus and his disciples came across a man who had been blind all his life. 'Who's to blame for this man's blindness?' the disciples asked Jesus. 'No one," Jesus replied. He explained that God's power would be revealed as a result of the man's disability.... ...Cancer is finite. God is way
