This is a story of incredible hope. It is a book that will touch your heart and move your spirit. It is not only a story, but it is a real life lived and shared. This book continues to chronicle
Katie’s story of moving to Uganda, her ministry, and her family. It tells the
story of a life lived in hope despite the trials of living in a different
culture without all the resources to meet all the needs. Katie openly and
honestly shares the struggles she faces in times of tragedies and difficulties.
She tells of her doubts and her sadness when things don’t go as she hoped and
prayed. Yet even in the midst of her darkest hours, she continues to meet God
and He continues to meet her needs. He is there for her in all of it. He draws
her closer and she leans deeper into His care. This is a story of hope that
doesn’t despair, of hope that dares to give life to dreams. It is also a love
story. She meets her future husband and God gives her a gift of a family with a
husband when she no longer hoped for that. But the bigger love story is how God
loves her, provides for her, and gives her hope and joy even in the trials.
This story encourages all who
dare to hope that it isn’t misplaced if it is hope in God. When we trust Him,
we can dare to hope even in the impossible. Even if we don’t get what we prayed
for, we can trust God that He has a bigger purpose, that He has a plan, that He
loves us and will be with us. Katie’s life will touch people I never will, but
in reading this I realize that all our lives can count for something when
surrendered to His will. Wherever we are, whatever we are doing, can matter as
we dare to hope in a God who can do anything, anywhere.
