Light of Grace

By Lori A. Domingo

Description:

Sara Jacobs is a hard-working woman who is always quick to give God the credit for her perfect life. She is one of Seattle’s most sought-after cardiac surgeons, and nothing can beat the high of witnessing God’s grace at work as her patient’s heart starts to beat again. Her husband, Ryan, supports her in all that she does, while their son, Daniel, is the true light of her life. Not one moment of any given days goes by that her heart doesn’t overflow with gratitude for all the blessings she’s been given.

When one careless moment robs her of all that she cares about, she begins to lose her faith as she wonders what kind of a loving God would allow such tragedy? Drowning in grief, her life spirals towards a dark place, and she cannot imagine anything good ever coming out of such pain. Forced to take a sabbatical, she returns home to Wolfeboro, New Hampshire.

Determined to run from her past, a chance meeting with Grace Wilkes, a sixteen-year-old girl with Downs Syndrome, reminds her that, while she can make her plans, God directs her steps, and that maybe her story isn’t over yet.

Book Takeaway:

Never lose hope, no matter how dark the situation might look, because God is still with you and can turn ashes to beauty. He has a plan for each of us and will work all things out for the good for those who love Him. Hold tight to your faith in the Lord.

Why the author wrote this book:

I wrote "Light of Grace" because I wanted to share the beauty of God's unfailing love for us coupled with offering the reassurance that He is always with us, even when we can't see Him. His love will never fail.
