I'm Still Here - Hulshult, Nancy

. .

Résumé :
The phrase I'm Still Here means a variety of things. What it means to each of us most often depends on the day or perhaps the very moment we say, I'm Still Here. To be able to say I'm Still Here means that we survived yesterday: whether it is cancer, chemo, COVID, or unemployment, abuse, neglect or loss - if we survived, then we have a story to tell. Yet I'm Still Here also means that we are living in the present, moving forward with hope: still employed, still in a healthy relationship, still on target with today's goals, still making ends meet, still keeping up hope, still trusting God, still hanging in there, still able to say that we are alive and living to face another great day with a positive attitude. If so, then we have a story to tell. And even more, through His Word, the Lord says, I'm Still Here. God is still here: waiting, loving, forgiving, providing, healing, saving, inspiring, revealing, strengthening, guiding - still here, for us. I'm Still Here recounts an unforgettable narrative of spiritual journeys in a unique format. Author, Nancy Hulshult, not only shares stories of her adventures from the 1960's to 2020, but when possible, she includes stories from those who have crossed path with her on their own spiritual journeys - in their own voice. By reflecting on stories of faith and miracles of everyday, ordinary people like you and I, I'm Still Here gives us evidence of how God works in the lives of those who trust Him and call on Him for help.
