Résumé :
Our life plans are often far off course from where and what we expect our lives to be. Our expectations, life-altering losses, people, presumed failures and ultimately fickle faith lead us down a trail littered with disappointment, anxiety and despair. Author, Nita L. Page, shares the most disappointing and vulnerable seasons in her life, how she was able to weather the storm with God's grace and ultimately overcome by allowing her faith in Christ to rise up within her. The author shares life encounters and personal experiences that ultimately led her to fully embrace love, forgiveness, and humility. God meets us right where we are - in our deepest valley and highest mountain top moments - He is there with us to guide us along the way. God's love is unwavering. When in despair, do not travel the road alone. Invite God into your life and make your requests known unto Him. Connect with your faith and God will give you every bit of the strength you need to keep moving forward. Once we understand that life is simply a series of lessons and opportunities to serve Him, the journey becomes that much more rewarding. We begin to understand closed doors and seemingly missed opportunities - those experiences that would have, if not for God's divine intervention - taken us completely off course from His ultimate plan for our lives. Covered by Grace reads like a devotional or series of short stories of courage and perseverance. Readers will find the author to be refreshingly relatable - a sister or dear friend simply sharing short stories over lunch. At the end of each chapter, the author challenges the reader to look inward - to recognize past experiences for exactly what they were, acknowledge any missteps, grasp the intended lessons, and then ultimately the author charges the reader with the responsibility to reach back to those who aided them along their journey; and to pay the blessing forward to future generations.
