Sheila Walsh is an amazing Christian author and speaker and she has recently written this book. This kind of sums it up for me:Do you ever question God's ability to catch you when you fall?
Do shame, fear, and brokenness keep you from fully trusting God?
Do you secretly believe your dreams are unreachable?
You are not alone.
Beautiful Things Happen When a Woman Trusts God is all about trust. How we fight it. How we learn to do it. How it transforms us.
Life is not safe. That reality slips over us as we grow. Our response to the Father in that reality allows us either to swing higher and higher with the trust of a child . . . or fearfully shrink back from the swing set altogether.
As we weigh that choice, God whispers: Trust me.
In a remarkably transparent account, author and speaker Shelia Walsh opens wide her lifelong battle with trust and the moment-by-moment choices she made to follow where God led.
Shelia has lived a life ruled by "hidden places" of insecurity and brokenness and knows the overwhelming beauty of a life wholly handed over to Christ. As you encounter her struggles and triumphs, you also meet ten of the Bible's transformed-Tabitha, David, Paul, and others-who teach us that in spite of overwhelming circumstances, just one trusting encounter with Christ sets beautiful things in motion.
It can resurrect dreams, instill purpose, and ignite hope.
Discover what beautiful things can happen when you trust God.
I'm giving away FIVE copies of this book and I will draw winners on Friday afternoon. Just leave me a comment and let me know you'd like to win.

I would love this book. My family has had a rough 3 years. My dreams were to become an Elementary teacher. My dream came true for 5 wonderful years. I was then taken out of the classroom due to not passing a stupid test. I have struggled with the question WHY!!!! My family lost our dream house my husband had built and I still have a lot of guilt. I know God has a plan for me and my family but I am really not enjoying life daily. I have 2 wonderful little boys and need to trust God but finding it hard. Thanks Kelly for all your great post. Your family is beautiful.

The book sounds great, Kelly, and I am always needing encouragement to trust God. As one commenter said, I'll give it all to God and snatch it back when things get iffy.

I would love this book. Life is pretty crazy right now and I think this book would offer guidance and reassurance. angiebranton@att.net
I see myself slowly losing faith in recent months as I am a teacher while also in full time grad school with a 16 month old daughter which I long for nothing more than to be at home with her full-time. In the meantime, my dreams keep seeming to be so out of reach as my husband has been unemployed since February and is hitting a brick wall in his job search. During these unsure times I need a reminder to let go and trust in my Creator, but it can be so hard at times.
I would love to read this as I sm going through a divorce and hate that my children have to go through this!

This sounds like one I definitely need to read! Hope I win!
I've personally been going through a hard time with my spirituality. I have a 36 year old cousin with stage four cancer about to lose her fight. I am having a very hard time to understand this. I would love to be able to read something that would help me turn back to my faith.
I would love to win. Thanks for the opportunity.
I feel this would be an incredible book to read that would help me get through life right now.
I have always struggled with trusting God. And I love Sheila Walsh, so I would be thrilled to win a copy of this book.
I could use this during the trials I am walking through.
I think I'm too late but I'm putting a comment just in case! Maybe I'm meant to read it...worth a try! Thanks, Kelly, for always being a spiritual mentor to so many of us! Way to use your gifts of the spirit!
hope I'm not too late to enter but if so I'll understand...but still ;-)
This sounds like an amazing book, I'd love the chance to read it!!
Well, I missed the deadline, but if you wouldn't mind parting with the one you're reading (after you're done with it, obviously) I would be more than willing to take it off your hands. I could even borrow it and ship it back when I am done.
I'm also looking for (i think it's called ) The day God stopped keeping score??
Now that I am a mother of 4 boys, I have a hard time forgiving myself for some past mistakes. It's eating me up inside. Do you happen to have a copy of that one?
Thanks Kelly, you're always in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless,
Chantal
This looks like such a great read!
Thanks for the opportunity for this great give-away. I'm a "book-a-holic".....love, love, love to read and this one sounds really interesting. Facing some major STUFF with a family member right now......sooooooo need this!!

Hi,
I'm 21 many years old along with a student. off-late I have been obtaining signs of PCOD and my medical professional told me that inorder to cure I've gotta shed excess weight so as to get
it cured (BTW I'm 94kgs and my height is five.5) and she also recommended me this dietician who is practically nothing but a distributor of herbalife (she genuinely doesn seem similar to a appropriate dietician in any respect). More than understanding my queries she was focussed on selling these items to me. She asked me to consume it and promises that I'd lose
10 15 kgs in just a thirty day period which we all know is
unhealthy. I am confused cuz I am reading equally
positive and negative remarks and mostly these are so expensive.
She advised me to possess this chocolate shake which is about 1500 and claims
it'll get more than in 15 times and 2 a lot more boxes of protein and a few afresh powder collectively costing me Rs. 4500 just for a month. Even when I'm okay with buying it,
once I'm done losing bodyweight and stop it, is it gonna leave me with any troubles or am I gonna gain back again all my fat?
I'm confused!
Have a look at my weblog: weight loss calculator percentage excel
Properly, that's always a excellent factor, lol. It could be great to have such a stunning drop, wouldn't it?

American guys wouldn't visit other countries for love/sex for any variety of causes. The initial is if most females within the U.S. weren't
so body fat. Sure you will find men that cannot find the money for to journey or are uninelligent, in order that they settle for
any body fat lady and live a dull life even though they are saying
their spouse or girlfriend is "hot" but the dimension
of a Ford Tundra. The second is simply a minority of females are super scorching inside the
U.S. A low share of hot females in america, makes them go for either some muscle buff homos or some
billionare. Among the younger sizzling women, they're sexually turned off by intelligence of any kind or sophistication.
So what need to a guy of respectable appears with a higher schooling do ? Go accept some fatty ? Why must he, when he has a high possibility in having the life he desires in other places on this earth, Look in the the years he skipped out in school exactly where sizzling girls haven't any sexual curiosity in intelligence
and use MTV as their normal of a man. Logically talking, it's far better for an informed man of good appears to go to locations where nearly all girls are
super sizzling and unique such as Eastern Europe/Russia,parts of Latin America, and a few parts of Asia.
So how come women in america, and their closeted gay male supporters lash out at their fellow American men for taking pleasure in existence or looking for out a real lifestyle ? I have no dilemma if girls chose a daily life they need, why can not men ?
