Everyone needs someone to confide in--to pour out their feelings of hope and frustration, to describe their fears and share their joys. In Letters to Shirley, the author reflects on the daily happenings in her life, intimate meditations on God, and a trip or two down memory lane. Like real life, not everything is pretty, and even the spiritual moments do not always consist of bowed heads and celestial music. The writings are heartfelt and overflowing with raw honesty, the trustful confidences of one who opens her heart to a true friend. From bleak moments of darkness--including the death of a loved one and a cancer diagnosis--to the dawning rays of the light of hope, the letters reflect a journey of faith and trust and many blessings from God.
And so the letters begin.
