The Covenant Giving God the Reins by Kimberly Hicks Graham

The Covenant: Giving God The Reins by [Hicks-Graham, Kimberly]

Here is the book summary:
The Covenant: Giving God the Reigns by Kimberly Hicks-Graham

As the elevator door closed, I heard her words: Do you have a living will or directive if you were to code in this elevator?" Words that pierced my heart and would change my life forever. It was obvious she spoke these words often as they seemed to come off her lips effortlessly. How should I react? How would you react? The thoughts stirring in my head were overwhelming. Where are you, God? Speak to me. He had spoken: I just didn't know it yet. It is a miracle.

Whether you are beginning your walk with God or looking for a deeper relationship with him, you will find hope and inspiration as you read these pages. The powerful message of God's promises brought to life through one family's journey and the many lives it touched along the way.

Prepare to feel God's awesome power as you experience this true story. It can change your life.

And now, my review:
I found this book to be a very quick read. I don't completely line up with all her ways of thinking on everything, but it looks like in the end that she is growing in her walk with the Lord and that is what matters most. This is a book about a woman who shares her life story (so far). Everyone has a story to tell and their life matters to God and so then as a believer it should matter to me.  So by taking the time to sit and listen I was blessed with some takeaways that can be monumental in my walk with God. I know she does not mean for this book to be sad but, for me, it was so often as I was reading. I could relate to her story in some places (widowhood, control) and life lessons shared can be just the encouragement another person needs. That might be just what this book might be for you. You might want to have a box of Kleenex nearby for the emotions that are bound to come. 

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
