O knihe

As a Christian parent, the day your child leaves home for the far country, and the day they return, are two significant moments in time. The period that elapses in between can feel like no-man's land, a wilderness experience. It is a time when a parent's life can be hard and somewhat overwhelming in trying to deal with the unknown. Making sense of it all and trying to analyse and understand what went wrong takes up so much emotional energy. In this book, author Annie Kirk shares out of her own experience, the challenge of surrendering her tight grip and control over her circumstances, and entrust her prodigal child to God. Surrendering completely takes great faith and trust that God is who He says He is, and will do what He has promised. Learning how to trust entirely in the promises of God takes courage. Similarly, believing that God is working all things together for good is not always easy, especially when the battle in your mind is raging and your situation speaks to the contrary. Annie explains that as you choose to believe and rest on the promises, you will begin to hear the voice of God more clearly. Only then will you realise that the work God is doing in your life, while you are waiting on the fulfilment of His promises, is more important than what you think you are waiting for - your prodigal child returning!
