"Have you had anything to eat to-day?" he asked, suddenly.
She shook her head. "I could not eat! It would choke me!"
"But you must eat, you know," he said, gently, as if she were a little child. "You cannot bear all this. You will break down."
"Oh, what does that matter now?" she asked, pitifully, with her hand fluttering to her heart again and a wave of anguish passing over her white face.
"But we must live, mustn't we, until we are called to come away?"

Beautiful story. Beautiful picture of motherhood. The main character is a type of Paul from the new testament. There is a parallel throughout the story between the main character's and Paul's lives. One of my favorite things about this books is the mother that Paul comes to know and love.
Excellent story. A young man tries to understand the feeling he has of Christ’s Presence in his life after a serious brush with death, coupled with a sense of responsibility for the death of a heroic college classmate. He falls heavily for the wrong girl, even though she shuns his search for Truth.
I liked the strong faith element in this and the emphasis on the Holy Spirit's presence and leading. Didn't particularly like the fact that the romantic element was so focused on the wrong romance with so little attention given to the right one. The rose-colored glasses that everyone seemed to view
Wonderfully inspired writing.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. The characters are brought to life with a genuine reality of the world we live in. Hope abounds within its pages, and one grows to love the characters and grow to love the Presence even more.
Although we all know old Gracey tends to be a bit of an exaggerator, syrupy sweet characters, terrible villains, I found this book to be a tad more on the mark. I found Jena to be exactly like several women I have met and the struggles that Paul faced made him very real to life and likeable.
