This is a book of comfort and encouragement for all those facing
difficulty or distress, based on the author's own story of the
sudden death of his wife. Full of inspiring quotations and stories
of hope and courage from all over the world, the text includes
letters and poetry from friends and strangers alike - all pointing
to the mystery of God's transforming presence. After his wife
collapsed and died in a matter of minutes, the author's life was
turned upside down as he tried to make sense of his devastating
loss. Drawing on the very practical faith he had shared with his
wife, he reflected on the world's greater sorrows: the many deaths
from AIDS in Africa; the terrorist attacks in America; and the
asylum-seeking children trying to fit into Glasgow life. In these
stories, the light of Christ shines through human courage and
kindness, pointing the way through sorrow to healing and peace.
Peter Millar is a minister of the Church of Scotland and was
formerly Warden at Iona Abbey. He is the author of best-selling
"Iona Prayer Book," "Iona Pilgrim Guide" and "Waymarks."
