Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Parks, Carrie (illustratore). As new condition color illustrated boards. Includes Foreword; Acknowledgments; and Introduction. Illustrated with watercolor paintings by Carrie Parks. "Reminiscing back through twenty-five years of marriage has given me a broader perspective of the seasons God has brought Frank and me through. I have gained a measure of assurance, knowing that if the present is not glorious, it is not that God has left us; rather, He is silently working to develop His character in our lives.Just as winter transforms into spring, so our lives are transformed from one season to the next. When Frank and I endure a difficult season, it seems an eternity. But when our days are easy, it feels like an instant. As surely as we hoped for spring in the midst of winter, so through our twenty-five years of marriage we have hoped in God to bring reprieve during seasons of unfulfilled hopes, doubts, and financial difficulties. Daffodils still bloom after a severe frost, and the apple tree bears fruit after a season of dormancy. And the God who carefully created the daffodils and apple trees also orchestrates the seasons of our lives to fulfill His unique plan for each of us. So when our seasons change, Frank and I have learned to quiet ourselves before the Almighty and wait to hear His voice." - Barbara Peretti, excerpt from the Introduction.
