Finding Hope by Delena Stuart-Watson Book Review

About the Book:

What would you do if your expectation of life changed in an instant?

Finding Hope is a memoir that chronicles the journey one woman faced when she gave birth to a critically ill baby. This inspirational book begins in the hospital delivery room, then NICU, where the most fragile babies are treated and brought back to life. In the years to come, more struggles emerged.

How do you find hope in adversity? Faith is the only way.

My Review:

This is a powerful memoir. Watson shares her story of birthing a child with unexpected medical issues, being not fully developed. She shares of the unknown future and the strain on the marriage. She is quite honest about her questioning God as she was faced with an overwhelming situation. She also tells of finding support in others. Then, facing additional tragedy.

The strength of this memoir is the encouraging spiritual reflections Watson gives after each section of memoir. The encouragement relates directly to the personal experiences it follows. She adds practical suggestions for action and a thoughtful prayer. There is also abundant room for journaling.

In her closing words, she reminds readers that not knowing what the future holds we can still be confident God is in control. This is a touching memoir of difficulty and trusting God.

My rating: 4/5 stars.
