My Life and Lesser Catastrophes

This book was stunningly honest. It is a very intimate look into the life of a heart touched by tragedy and facing unfamiliar doubts and fears. It's a story of finding faith in the midst of sorrow, and hope in the midst of despair.

In spite of the tough subject matter, this story is incredibly positive. Through the stunning and sudden catastrophes the author has faced comes a faith that is deeper and more solid.

Untested faith is no faith at all. It is when you are shaken to your core that your faith is truly tested. At that point of ultimate testing, when we have nothing left of ourselves, that is when faith grows.

This is a beautiful account, and I highly recommend it.
