God of the Valleys: Mysteries along Life's Journey - Paperback

by Janet Williamson (Author)

God of the Valleys (Mysteries Along Life's Journey) is a journey with God that reminds us that when we trust in God rather than leaning on our understanding, we acknowledge Him, and God will make our path straight (Proverbs 3:5-6). Mine is not a journey on a path of despair, nor are the pages strewn with hopeless devastation. My story overflows with faith in God, undying courage, and God's grace to push through struggles, even with joy. Ours wasn't a journey that exempted us from suffering; on the contrary, God and the support of friends taught us how to thrive in the midst of it. Hospitalization and cancer were such a big part of our lives that we had to triumph over these with God's help to enjoy full lives. Our story is of a pilgrimage with God comprised of pain, mystery, humour, forgiveness, and repentance. When you enter my world through the pages of God of the Valleys (Mysteries Along Life's Journey), the tapestry of my life is unlike most. You will hear the voices of my children, Tanya and Eric, as they lift their battle cry over cancer with joy, hope, humour, and perseverance. That will, I hope, encourage the reader to hold fast to hope in God. There are mysteries about God and suffering that are not easily explained, and even when we don't understand, trusting in Him is still the answer. I am so thankful to God for the gift of my children, Tanya and Eric, who loved God and walked with Him all their days and taught me to do the same.
