Something about Knowing God: Seeing Through His Eyes from Brokenness to Wholeness - Paperback

by Vera L. Smith (Author), Carol Breiling (Foreword by)

Without a mother and raised by a father who was remiss, Smith's story begins walking in life looking through the eyes of a child. After suffering a childhood tragedy, still feeling the sting behind her painful loss, she began to write, though not realizing God was leading her to write it all down. As years passed, she felt as though she was living under the weight of trials that seemed to just keep coming. Seeking the heart of God while pouring over Scripture, she was searching to find an answer to her disquieting question, What do you want me to see? Years later, she saw it. God had not changed. He continues to reveal his heart through his servants molded by seasons of brokenness, betrayal, seasons of solitude, and silence before using them as instruments of change. Her compelling and transparent real-life stories enriched through biblical knowledge, personal struggles, and uplifting moments can help to build faith and sharpen discernment while inviting redirection and embracing self-worth. Her touching story ends by engaging the heart of the reader to self-reflect and to seek to know something more about knowing God who, the author deeply affirms, qualifies the called.
