Ratings and reviews

An absolutely wonderful book on God's love, grace & timing. Taught me to always give everything to God & to wholly trust that he knows and loves me more than anyone else. It showed me that God is always in control of my situation & that as his child I will always have a special place in His heart. I will wholeheartedly recommend this book to anybody regardless of if you are a Christian or not. Thank you Lori Wick from allowing God to use you & your gift to touch my life. God bless you a million times👏💞💗

It was a well written book. But the storyline was a bit long and tiresome, and the infusion of God in every conversation is melodramatic. I prefer worship to not be a didactic read but every Wick book reads like the Talmud in a daily conversation. It gets tedious to see inner dialogue with the Lord on every page; that's simply too preachy for me. This book could be called Sophie's Psalm because that's what it felt like.

I enjoyed reading this book for one it's based on true life experience along with life's struggle God fearing faith just to say all you need to do is Simply believe in God!
