In GOD'S Time (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781506912011)

At an early age, Linda Smith considered 'living' a voyage on a ship sailing life's ever-changing sea. When she accepted God's love - certified on Calvary's Cross, her vision was re-set. She received a new compass with a Majestic needle always pointing to a Peaceful Harbor of Still Water. She prayed for the Lord to guide and direct her life and would always include a 'post script' asking Him to send her a good husband. When Linda was ten, her mother died leaving a young girl with responsibilities and decisions not intended for a child. More turbulence than tranquility accompanied her headings through high school. Just after high school, she was living in a dangerous neighborhood and was facing the worse storm of her young life when she met Bennett Wellington. Earlier, her lower-case dad arranged for her to work for a grimy old man. The old man's equally grimy son had vowed to marry her. She believed God sent Bennett to help her find a safe place to live. He was a schedule-driven person who did not share her conviction and did not want interruptions. After knowing how desperately she needed to leave Logan, WV, he decided to help her. Later, Linda often encountered rough waters that would have capsized dreams of many. Three time, however, the tempest was so overwhelming that her helm was totally in the hands of an Able Mate. Each time Linda's next trapeze bar was out of sight, sails were unfurled and filled with assurance that the bar would appear. Linda's 'post script' prayer swirled in the wind until answered In GOD'S Time.
