Great book!,

This review is from: Notes from the Margins: Healing Conversations with God (Paperback)
The first few chapters give you a very clear picture of the pain and sadness the author went through as a Christian not understanding why God would do this to her. It is just so well written you really could feel her hopelessness. And even if you don't have the same trials you can relate. But then she starts to realize that God doesn't work in the way that we would have Him. We have to have faith and believe that He does love us no matter what trials we have in this life. Because He truely does. The last few chapters were my favorite. The "how to" of it all. She lays it all out very clearly in a way anyone could comprehend. I love the verses she uses and writes out (not just the verse number) to back up all that she says. It is just so well written and easy to understand. Keeps you wanting to read and learn more. Definately a keeper.

This book gave great meaning to certain comforting scripture from the Bible. I'm not so sure if you've not experienced some sort of loss that this book would be for you though. Weepy in parts.

Notes from the Margins is hands-down one of the most moving, powerful and personal accounts of pain and healing I have ever read. Alane takes her readers on a journey through loss, grief, and ultimately, the spiritual wholeness ...that can only come through God and His Word. A life-changing, life-giving book.
