Acsah

By Janice Rice

Description:

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Prov 31:1

Once an awkward girl of Hebron who seemed to follow trouble, Acsah blossoms into a beautiful, sought after woman of God. Amidst the turmoil of work and war, Acsah finds herself struggling between following her heart and trusting the guidance of both her earthly and heavenly Father. She must trust the armies of Judah under the Patriarch, Caleb, to protect herself and those she holds dear.


After losing his father in a tragic animal attack, Othniel has felt the weight of war and duty more heavily than most his age. His growing attraction to Acsah is a confusing distraction from his plans as Captain, yet he finds himself unable to turn his thoughts and heart from her.
Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land. Prov 31:23

When Acsah's father decrees that whoever can take the city of Debir will be her husband, their doubts and fears threaten to overwhelm. Will Othniel prove his worth by taking the city of Debir and thus, Acsah's hand in marriage? Or will he fail in his quest and watch as she be given to another? It all comes down to faith and trust in One greater than all of them.
