Blind Hope

I had told myself—I was breaking from “book reviews” since WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group was re-vamping their “Blogging for Books” program.  Perfect opportunity. 
But then I received the last requested book—in the mail.
Blind Hope was such an inspiring story to read—not just because I’m an animal lover—but because I’m a God lover.  Because I love God with a passion and purpose—that I’ve never experienced before.
As I read this little book—I saw not only myself, but I saw others that I love dearly—and many of them I would love to give a copy of this book to—just so that they could see just “how” God loves us.  That was the picture I saw—unconditional love.
I encourage you, click on the link.  Order the book.  Read it—and share it with someone you love.  Your life will not be the same—your eyes and heart will be affected—by a blind dog.
*******************************************************
An unwanted dog. An emotional rescue.
Sometimes the life you save may be your own.
Laurie had her own shattered dreams before she came to work at Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch—the ranch of rescued dreams—where broken horses and broken children encounter healing every day. Reaching out to save a dog in need, Laurie soon realized that the dog was rescuing her.
An inspiring true story told through the engaging voice of Kim Meeder, Blind Hope reveals poignant life lessons Laurie experienced from her ailing, yet courageous canine friend. Despite the blindness of her dog—and her own heart—Laurie uncovered what she really needed most: authentic love, unconditional trust, and true acceptance, faults and all.
As Laurie and her dog, Mia, both learned to follow the lead of a master they couldn’t see, Laurie discovered the transforming power of God’s selfless love even for imperfect and selfish people—and she experienced a greater love than she has ever known.
“Love is a bridge that stands firm through difficulties and connects one heart directly to another, not because of how it looks, but because of what it is.”              -Kim Meeder, Blind Hope

I will be giving away a copy of this book to a “commenter” on July 17!
