But a law passed by Congressmaking fertile land available in the Oregon Territorywould capture her husbands imagination and change their lives forever. The Wilcox farm has been unprofitable for years, threatening the familys survival. But now, acres of free land are up for grabs in Oregon to any family willing to make the long, treacherous journey there by wagon train and claim it. Ada has no choice but to abide by her husbands decision to sell the farm and travel west with him and their eight-year-old daughter, Ruthie. Her resentment festers against her husband for taking her away from her home and her sons grave, and against God, who had not healed her sonleaving her angry, confused, and despondent. During the grueling trek across the plains, mountains, and rivers, Ada learns how to work through grief from those she befriends on the wagon train to Oregon. But more importantly, she learns what it means to submit to Gods authority and trust Him completely. While ministering to the needs of others, she transforms their lives as well as her own and begins to restore her relationship with her Lord, her husband, and her daughter.

Download or read book Lasting Love written by Caroline Wright and published by Rodale Kids. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This gorgeous picture-book meditation on loss and family love is a useful tool for children navigating a first experience with death. When a family member or another loved one becomes ill, one of the scariest aspects of their sickness is the way they may change, both physically and in spirit. The feeling of loss can come so early as the person becomes more difficult to recognize. It's a hard thing for anyone to understand, and especially so for a child. This book offers a helpful visualization of a sick person's essence as a friendly creature who remains strong and warm, even as the illness progresses. The creature is always around and never tries to cheer the child up, but only serves to keep them company. Caroline Wright and Willow Heath clearly understand that, like the creature, a book cannot "fix" a painful situation or even make it a little better. Instead they simply reflect the pain of loss back to the reader and help them understand that they are not alone.

Although she has been in many dark places, she feels none were places of waste. Because of His grace and mercy, God led her from the mire, set her feet on a rock, and provided her with a new song of victory and praise. In a memoir shared to inspire believers that God is a powerful partner who takes us out of the darkness and into His marvelous light, Jacqueline offers insight into her spiritual journey as she realized that she needed to be broken so God could use her to remind others of His goodness and the healing that comes from His word. As she shares detailed stories about how God guided her from devastation, even when it was difficult to put one foot in front of the other, she reminds Christians that a personal relationship with God can transport all of us to a place of joy, peace, and ministry to others through His amazing mercy. Broken and Spilled Out is the true story of a Christian’s journey to move from a place of desperation and deep sorrow to a place of peace and unconditional love, with help from God.
