From the Author:
I have some close family members who suffer from clinical depression. During their times of deepest anxiety, I mistakenly worked to jackhammer down into those depths with armfuls of Scripture and wagonloads of God's promises. It never worked. Like rushing a hypothermic person into a sauna, it was too much, too soon. What they truly need in those moments is just one lasting truth to cling to, just one strong promise to lean on.
Really, the same can be said of us all. In our darkest moments, when our energy and resources seem depleted, all we want is just one light to move towards, just one hope to buoy us, and just one assurance to wrap our arms around.
If you are in the midst of difficult times right now, I pray this book will give you that one light, one hope, and one assurance you need to see you through.
