First-time author Jill Atogwe compels kids to believe that God uses what we see as our weaknesses to make us strong. By leaving some things out, we can learn to trust Him instead of ourselves. After all, God sets boundaries for his children in pleasant places (Psalm 16:5-8). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The cute and quirky illustrations show an array of kids of diverse races, varying cultures, different abilities and disabilities, distinct talents, and various socioeconomic statuses. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As kids read and look through the pictures, they'll see that every child wonders if God accidentally left something out of them. But God doesn't accidentally do anything; He intentionally created each person differently for His special purpose. By the end of the book, kids will be repeating the book's chorus, \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"What God left out is part of my story; \u003cbr\u003e It's all for my good and all for His glory!\"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJill Atogwe\u003c\/b\u003e lives in Dallas, Texas with her husband Oshiomogho and four always busy littles ages 9, 7, 3, and nearly 1.
