For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.So often we hold on to things that are no longer ours to hold on to ~ faulting, blame, blocking our future ~ needlessly. Catch a Falling Star is a story of what can happen when we relinquish who we are fully to the One who made us and has His best for us, beyond what we could ever think or imagine. Several stories are going on, as lives around us are in real life. It flows effortlessly as Beth K. brings to life her characters with their weaknesses and strengths. Most beneficial? Being available to change. I especially like the growth in Griffin as he discovers his worth. I like the relinquishment of Kendall's as she releases an heirloom, only to receive her own. Grace. Beyond measure.
--Colossians 1:13-14
About Catch a Falling Star:
What does a girl do when life doesn't go according to her plan?
At
36, Kendall Haynes has seen some of her dreams come true. She's a
family physician helping kids with severe allergies and asthma achieve
more fulfilling lives―a childhood struggle she knows all too well. But
the feeling of being "the kid never picked" looms large when romance
continues to evade her and yet another one of her closest friends gets
engaged. Are Kendall's dreams of having it all―a career, a husband,
children―nothing more than childish wishing upon a star? Should she hold
out for her elusive Plan A? Dust off Plan B? Or is it time to settle?
God says he knows the plans he has for her―why can't Kendall figure them
out and be content with her life?
Griffin Walker prefers flying solo-both as an Air Force pilot and in his personal life. But a wrong choice and health problems pulled him out of the cockpit. His attempts to get out of "flying a desk" are complicated by his parents' death―making Griffin the reluctant guardian of his sixteen-year-old brother, Ian. How did his life get so off course? Can God get his life back on track ... or has there been a divine plan all along?
Catch a Falling Star reminds readers that romance isn't just for twenty-somethings and that sometimes letting go of your "wish I may, wish I might" dreams is the only way to embrace everything God has waiting for you.
