Waiting for Morning by Karen Kingsbury

Karen Kingsbury has been a well loved author of mine for many years. "Waiting for Morning" is a book about anger towards God and humanity while learning to forgive and go on with life.


A terrible tragedy fills Hannah with unforgiveness, Kingsbury writes in such a way that you feel this characters anger and the need for revenge. Also as she realizes her need to forgive and the need to let go and let God take control.

There are many people who struggle with forgiving those that have wronged them. Karen reminds us that Jesus forgave us of our sins, of our wrong doings. He asked the Father to forgive those that crucified him. We all had a part in that and yet Jesus forgave us. When we forgive, we can have the ultimate peace that can only come from Christ.

 This is definitely a book that you need to keep a box of tissues close at hand.  Karen writes with such passion that you can feel Hannah's anger and sorrow as well as her relief when she can finally let go and forgive.

I received a copy of this book free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I had gotten so discouraged by the spam, that I had completely given up.

You'll learn about each proverb's surprising origins, why some are valid and others are not, the derivation and meanings behind them, and their relevance in today's society. Includes entries like: Two heads are better than one: Like the less-familiar "Four eyes see better than two," this proverb extols the benefits of having someone else help you make up your mind-and it's a view that goes back to at least the fourteenth century. But while it is always useful to have a second opinion (A sounding board? Someone else to blame?) it might also be worth bearing in
