How can we fully trust God to do the impossible in spite of our battles against fear, anger, envy and shame? He often seems too removed to be involved in our daily troubling situations. Phillips admits, \"I am preaching to myself-repeatedly-in this book." Perceiving even a small glimmer of the radiant truth of God's loving power means hope. Stories of women who were both wounded and unfailingly loved by God are potent vehicles for nurturing the hope that does not disappoint us, 'because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit' (Romans 5:5). And what an array of stories! The journeys of these remarkable women were often long and unexpected, forcing them well outside their comfort zones and into unpleasant circumstances. Many wrestled with the task of child-rearing and seemed to have limited success. All chose to surrender their own understanding and place their trust in the power of an often-mysterious God. Here's what they discovered: With God, Nothing Is Impossible. And the same is true for us today! In this inspiring book, Elaine Phillips shares life-transforming truths that will deepen your faith in the same God these women of the Bible knew and trusted.
