Heartfelt Truth

One of the reasons I like this book is because I can relate to it. The author told her story with honesty and truth which I would think is very hard to do publicly. I definitely recommend After the Locusts. The book brought to mind the fact that we are reminded of a time in our lifes we would wish never happened, but that we are much richer now for surviving and still having our families in tact. Thank you Mary for sharing.

Inspiring to those of us who've been there and those who are there now

Wow, great read. It's always inspiring to hear true accounts of God's faithfulness. For me, stories like these help with the "Bad things to good people" question. In hindsight His plan is sometimes reassuringly apparent. Reading this story made me remember that. I think it has the power to show other people that as well. For anyone that has dealt with or is dealing with alcoholism in your family this book lets you know you're not alone and gives a great example of the power of prayer.
