Robin Jones Gunn reveals poignant truths from her life as well as from the lives of women in the Bible as she flips the notion that we are at the mercy of circumstances. She asks, what if God has dreams for you? What if he is accomplishing those dreams in the midst of shattered hopes? When life doesn't go as expected, it's easy to feel like a victim. We look at the events that have gone wrong and view our lives as impaired. What if we could see our future as God sees it? Would our view radically change if we understood we are indeed victims rather than of happenstance? God, the Relentless Lover, has vigorously sought you. He has instilled dreams in your heart that are grander than you can imagine. But the route to their fulfillment often is through a path you wouldn't seek. What if God wants to take the hopes that tug at your heart and enliven them? Are you ready to live inside the mysterious joy of being a victim of grace?… (altro)

I loved this book, and encourage you to read it. It was entertaining, delightful, and genuine, with both relatable and moving stories from Robin's life.

I had never heard of Robin Jones Gunn, nor her best selling books the Christy Miller series and the Sierra Jensen series. But I was intrigued by the description of this book, which is her memoir chronicling her life as a writer, and so much more. She tells of personal experiences she has had throughout her life, describing how God has guided and influenced her. She includes stories of women in the Bible as examples of God's grace. I found myself seeing things from a fresh perspective, and was often moved by the things she shared in these pages.

What makes this book so readable is Robin's writing style - very open and personable. In a comfortable and conversational approach, she shares her honest thoughts - doubts and fears as well as triumphs, and reveals that when we feel caught up in life's circumstances, to remember that God is in control. What a comfort to know that! And to realize that everything good that happens is because of God's grace.

I plan to buy copies of this special book to share with friends, and it's one I'll be reading again. I highly recommend! ( )
