Beautiful Things Happen When A Woman Trusts God is Sheila Walsh's personal account of how she climbed out of clinical depression with God's grace and truth. Trust, in general, is a hard topic to write about never mind live. Trusting God wholeheartedly can be one of the hardest and most exhilarating things you can do. Sheila takes us "behind the scenes" of her clinical depression and hospitalization. We get a birds-eye view of a woman torn between a world she knows all to well and a very scary and uncertain future. Her prose is strong and her writing approachable.
Sheila seamlessly blends her life story with that of Biblical characters whose lives were touched by God through their trust in him.
There is nothing earth shattering about this book. As a long-time Christian I did not "learn" anything new.
What I did do is walk away with a better understanding of Sheila's journey and had a clear reminder of how powerful our God is. She has a refreshing approach and very readable style. The book does include discussion questions and an in-depth bible study.
Thomas Nelson provided me with a complimentary copy of this book. It will be passed around! Recommended without reservation.....
