Mothers Love and Forgiveness























Forgiven 

by Terri Roberts

 

As the mother of the Nickel Mines gunman, Terri Roberts was hit with a storm of grief over the tragedy. Raising her children she never thought of having to deal with a situation like this in her life. Storms have been apart of her life since she was a little girl, so Terri has become a survivor thru lifes storms. She tells her story of growing up and raising a family of her own. The one thought that I find from this book is "A survivor heals by submitting to surrendering the pain of their heart  to the one above."



I have much in my life growing up but as a first responder myself, I have not ever had to face a tragedy as bad as this. My heart broke as I read the story of the struggles that this family went thru. This story is truly remarkable, God has used Terri Roberts in an amazing way. He took something that was a very tragic time for so many and made it an example of God's Grace.

Really Bad Girls of the Bible More Lessons from Less-than Perfect Women by Liz Curtis Higgs She did it again, Liz Curtis Higgs has taken the bad girls of the Bible and brought them to life in her latest book. We are introduced to some very overlooked women in the Bible, Jael, Medium of En-dor, Athalia and Herodias. Also some women that touched lives thru the things they did, Bathsheba, Tamar, the Adulteress and the Bleeding Woman. Each of these women did things that were bad or something that was considered bad in that time period in the case of the Bleeding Woman. Each chapter highlights one of these womens stories and at the end it gives us insight that we can learn from each of these women. I loved reading Slightly Bad Girls of the Bible, so when I got the chance to review this book I jumped at it. Liz does an amazing job of taking the stories of the women in the Bible and bringing them to life for us 20th century women. I would recommend this book to anyone as a study...
