In this encouraging book, Comes writes from personal experience. She struggled with infertility, battling anxiety and despair. She came to a breaking point but was encouraged to persevere and know that she would get through it.
She writes about being in the waiting time and standing in faith knowing that God has an appointed time to move. She encourages us to not give up on the dream God has given us. She writes about prayer, the reality of spiritual warfare, recognizing the enemy's lies, maintaining a positive focus, relying on the Word, dealing with fear, and more.
I like Comes' lessons from biblical examples. I really appreciate the practical application section at the end of each chapter. She provides encouraging thoughts and Scriptures and practical steps to take.
This is a very encouraging book filled with insights from experiences and the Word. Comes' life is a good example of knowing that God has a plan and believing He is working even when we cannot see it. She wrote this book because she wants to see others experience all God has for them. It is an inspiring and encouraging book filled with practical teaching.
