With Great Mercy

From the back cover...

We all know that life is unpredictable.  People who have illnesses know painfully well this truth:  one morning you may wake up as usual, but by the end of the day life as you knew it has changed forever into a battle for survival.

Kathy Gilbert Taylor was living a normal and vibrant life until one morning she awoke to severe pain on the right side of her face.  The electrocution-like pains of trigeminal neuralgia – a disorder dubbed “the suicide disease” for the unbearable pain it inflicts – would torment her for the next seven years of her life.

This is not merely a story about pain and healing.  It is the story of one of child of God’s spiritual battle for true faith and a closer relationship with her Lord.  Despite the excruciating pain she was experiencing, Taylor held fast to God’s truths and pressed on for the miraculous.  Let her incredible journey inspire you in your own walk through the valleys of life to draw close to God no matter what the cost.

I read Ms. Taylor’s story with a tear in one eye and a gleam in the other, inspired to call upon the Lord in the midst of whatever “pain” I am facing in my life. With Great Mercy should be in the hands of anyone facing chronic pain, whether physical or emotional.
