"I read your book at a time when I was struggling to find joy and fulfillment in my life and was really battered by my own negative spirit. You book helped me to realize life's blessings and teachings and to accept accountability for my thoughts. You resurrected my trust in the Lord and it serves as a continual reminder 'to trust in the Lord with all my heart', to have patience, gratitude, and most importantly FAITH. Thank you for providing such a compelling book that served as the impetus for my spiritual renewal!"

Tempe, AZ

"Your book is such a wonderful, helpful book and I am thankful I read it. It has helped me personally. I had a DEEP hurt by another minister's wife back in 1982, one that I had struggled with  all these years. . . I felt I had overcome the hurt and forgiven her in my heart, but the hurt kept coming up again-especially when I thought of having to see her again when her husband was to speak as evangelist for our upcoming revival. Your book helped me so much . . . following the revival I rejoiced because I was able to interact with her in true Christian love. The poor woman probably didn't even remember the incident and didn't know I felt this way all these years. Thank you for writing this book."   

Abilene, TX

"Your book will be very helpful, both in terms of understanding the kind of struggle so many people seem to be caught in and in terms of practical directions for developing hope in the face of despair. . . I have to tell you that I loved the last chapter! So many Christian books end with 'living happily ever after' and I appreciate your openness about the struggles that continue. Good job!" 

Former pastor of 12 years, now living in Washington.

"I have read your book and I rejoiced in it at your candor and your thankfulness to our Lord. God bless you! May this book find it's way to many who are in a "self-pity" stage; they need to hear about what true difficult problems are all about and that it is our Lord who holds the answers for us all".  

Mariposa, CA

"Your book is AWESOME and I am sharing it with my friend whose mom left her dad when she was only 8 years old. . . I just talked to her quickly this evening and she said she is a slow reader but she just couldn't put your book down and is now on part two (I just gave her the book night before last) . . . your book is a winner!

Santa Maria, CA

"I have just finished reading your book for the first time (I intend to read and re-read it as it is so packed with material and info that you can't get it all in one read) and I want you to know how much I was blessed by it . . .I just wanted you to know how much your story meant to me and just to thank you for being who you are . . . I still have too much negativity in my life but I am working on it. . ."  

Campbell, CA

". . . the second half of your book just about blew me away. What wonderful truths you revealed! I let my daughter take it on a trip to Texas. I asked her to read the last half first since she has been through so many hard things these past years . ."

"Lovely book! Truly it will be helping many-it is so beautifully written. . . The whole idea of victim consciousness is something I need for myself. I am seeing how my choices add to my suffering, and how the continual wounding of my family adds to my low esteem. I am receiving a good "shot in the arm" of Jesus right now as I read your book! Thank you! . . .PS: I loved the art work-so tasteful.
