My beloved big brother, Richard, had vanished without a trace. There was not one solid clue for my parents or the police to investigate. How did life go on after a loved one goes missing? As an 11-year-old, I was grieved and confused. Was Richard someone's captive? Was he being hurt? Would the police advocate for Richard? Who could I trust? Who would help? What was now a normal day? How did we go on as a family? Life became insane.
So began an endless cycle of searches, ransom calls, and police investigations. Unanswered questions swirled with dashed hopes to make a slurry of heartache. I blocked out the trauma. The ever-present need for closure left me anxious and angry. I was angry with the police, my parents, myself, and even God. My faith in Jesus, fragile as a snowflake, had melted.
Did God overlook evil? Did I have to forgive? Who received Mercy? And what about Justice? As I matured, my yearning for those answers actually led me to find Jesus as Lord. Together we traversed these faith-crushing questions to glean true faith. Despite years of living in the traumatic chaos of an unsolved crime against my family, I found answers in Jesus. I hope my journey of faith will inspire you to find God's Goodness. His Love never fails.
A mesmerizing, edge-of-the-seat read…with a beautiful message.
