Dandelions Never Die #1 A Healing-In Jesus' Name

First, in these books you will see that being strong, smart, honorable, masculine men, is not toxic, but it is a God-given quality, AND that being a strong, smart feminine, lovely woman as a companion to a man, and being a mother is a special calling indeed. You will also see that...... God has a plan. When Shelley, a young mother, is surprised by a random act of violence, her life turns into a prison of fear for which she cannot find the key. Yet when she takes one small step to help herself, God's plan begins to unfold. Eric has known God since he was a small boy trapped in a cave where he was visited by an angelic messenger. His life is dedicated to serving God, so when he begins having dreams about a woman in peril he sets out to search for her. However, when he finds her, things do not go as he planned. Evil asserts itself, causing extensive damage, yet miraculously, that evil is the catalyst for unlocking the door to Shelley's prison. God does indeed work in mysterious ways. This is a Christian novel, but it is no fluffy Hallmark romance. (Though I love me some Hallmark movies!) This story, and subsequent stories in the series are about real, gritty, issues, the evil that people face in this world, and how Psalm 18:4-6 is real and true: "The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears."
