| About the Book | |
|
Memories can grow dim and become lost over time. Through his prophets and apostles God called on his people to remember his works and not let their memories of his faithfulness fade away. This book is one family’s account of God’s faithfulness in their lives, from childhood to advanced age, through joy and deep grief, blessing and rejection, while living with the challenges of ordinary life in the U.S. and in Thailand. It gives chronological examples of God’s faithfulness that show how his continuing care and faithfulness strengthened their faith, even in the darkest valleys.
