For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6
I love Christmas season. Even with the tumult going on around
the world, hope cannot be taken from us. By celebrating Jesus' birth, we're
reminded that we do have a Savior. In our broken world, our messy lives, our
tragedies and tears, we always have hope.
In my novel, CHAIN OF MERCY, that's a lesson both the hero
and heroine need to learn. Both are broken, both have made terrible choices,
and both struggle to find hope with the mess they've made of their lives.
Through Christ, they eventually find that hope.
My prayer this Christmas is that, no matter what's going on
in your life, you'll look to the One who was born for you. Who loved you so
much, He died for you! And then He arose, leaving your sins behind, washing you
white as first-fallen snow!
Have a joyous Christmas!
About Chain of Mercy ~
A
devastating argument
One reckless
decision
An
unforgivable sin
Manhattan
businessman Richard Brooks was at the top of the world, drunk with success,
wealth, and women until one disastrous evening, when his world came crashing
down.
Richard
flees to Minneapolis where he repairs ancient boilers instead of solving
corporate problems, and he’s determined to live the solitary life he now
deserves …
Chained to
his guilt. Blending in with the gray. No luxuries in sight.
But
Executive Sheila Peterson has other plans for the handsome custodian. Richard
appears to be the perfect match for the no-strings-attached romance she’s
after, but she soon discovers that he’s hiding more than the designer suits in
his closet.
