The Onion You Are Eating Is Someone Else's Water Lily

Why This Book?

Why did I write this book?  What is different about this book?  These may be some of the questions that breezed through your mind as you looked at the cover or flipped through the introductory pages; however, I encourage you to read on.  I believe that you will find that this is not just another book, but yet another reason to praise and give God the glory.

This book had to be written.  I have to share with as many people as possible what God did for me.  What I experienced is available to countless others who desperately need to embrace the love of a compassionate Heavenly Father.  I want people to know that no matter what the situation, God is able to bring you through.  There is NOTHING too hard for God.  He is so faithful, so loving, so full of grace and so full of mercy.  He desires that everything you experience turn out for your good and that you can come through those tough times in your life victoriously.

This is a testimony to the glory of a good God who loves you and me with an everlasting love.  I have experienced the Father’s love like never before and I praise Him for being a Promise Keeper, a wonderful Savior, loving Father and for being my Healer.  What you will read in the next pages is but a brief account of how God carried me through the most challenging time in my life. I believe that as you read this book, you will be encouraged and challenged to trust God who “is able to do exceeding, abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us.“ (Ephesians 3:20)
