When Hope Found Me

When Hope Found Me is an anthology. The subject of the stories within this book are stories of hope. Have you ever felt hopeless? A traumatic event in your life, the loss of a loved one, a job, or a divorce. All those things and more can leave you feeling hopeless. But then something happens. A person reaches out to you. You receive an email or a card from someone saying they are thinking of you. It could be a song you hear on the radio or a show you have watched on television. Perhaps it is in your pet's eyes as they come up to snuggle against you. Maybe it is a connection with a stranger in line at the grocery store. Hope. It is everywhere if your eyes and heart are open to receiving it. God works things out in His time and in His way. I pray the stories in this book will provide a nugget of hope for you; that there will be one story that touches you in a way that makes you think, "Ah...ok, I'm not the only one. I CAN get through this." Each co-author has shared a personal part of their life, hoping it will touch someone and provide that small spark of light. We all have a light within us. It may sometimes dim, but don't you dare let it go out! The world needs your light. The world needs you! Once your light is burning a bit brighter, share it with others. Be that small breath of air that fans the flame for someone else. The world can be a dark place. My prayers and hopes are that this book is a light for those sitting in a dark place. A light that provides a glimmer of hope can turn into a burning flame. Shine on! The world needs your light!
