Glimmers of Hope: Poems on Finding Faith After Fire is a collection about what remains after loss, fear, and exhaustion-and how light returns, sometimes in the quietest ways.
Written during seasons of grief, waiting, and uncertainty, these poems move through doubt and endurance toward faith that has been tested and rebuilt. They hold space for prayers whispered in the dark, for miracles hoped for and-sometimes-answered, and for the difficult question that follows: how do you live after grace arrives?Some poems take the shape of prayers themselves-honest, unguarded, and human. Others trace the small signs that keep faith alive: a porch swing holding memory, leaves falling and returning, a single star or a handful of fireflies when the sky feels empty. Together, they reflect a belief in miracles-not only the dramatic ones, but also the quiet mercies that meet us in ordinary moments.
Rather than offering easy answers, Glimmers of Hope honors the courage it takes to stay soft in a hard world, to trust again after disappointment, and to let hope land without bracing for its loss. These poems believe faith can survive fire-not unchanged, but deeper, steadier, and more compassionate.
This book is for anyone who has prayed hard, waited long, witnessed grace, or is still learning how to hold hope. It is a reminder that light does not need to overwhelm the darkness to matter.
Sometimes one glimmer is enough.
