Waiting for Peace Paperback - 2014

From the publisher

Peace that surpasses all understanding. She needs that, she longs for that, but the unforeseen circumstances and life-changing decisions of which she had no input have left Janet's faith in God's promises so weak that she can't bring herself to waste precious energy praying for much of anything these days. In Waiting for Peace, Janet's walk with God is clouded by tears of frustration born of disappointment. Her marriage, which had been unraveling for some time, is now being tested by the strains of her husband's deployment and the heartbreaking reality of the future they will never have, the future she had once prayed for every night on her knees to no avail. Greater than the vast distance separating her home in southern Mississippi from her husband's concrete barracks in the Iraqi desert, the gap between Janet and God seems to widen with every lonely day that passes. With her faith, dreams, and marriage slipping further out of reach, Janet feels more abandoned and desolate than she wants to acknowledge, and her struggle to restore her failing relationships and accept the things she cannot change is a war she fears she will lose. A great storm is brewing in Janet's future. Will she learn to once again turn to God for help, or will she turn to the alluring stranger who rushes to her aid?
