Grief permeates most of the waking moments of those who are
mourning. This book is a Christian message about the hope and
fulfillment that can be known at the far side of that journey.
Ronald J. Greer Ron Greer and his wife lost their two-year-old son
Eric in a tragic automobile accident many years ago. In this brief,
moving book, the author draws on his experiences as a father and as
a pastoral counselor to offer hope, help, and healing to people who
are grieving.
Ron Greer has helped my wife and me grapple with many tough
issues over the years. But all of them pale by comparison to his
own personal tragedy. The loss of a child is the most devastating,
life-changing event a parent would shudder to even envision. But as
I have learned through the years, Ron has an uncanny ability to dig
deep into our dark, unexplored emotional mines turn on some lights
and then find those precious veins of hope.
There are no good answers to why bad things happen to good people.
But there are good people who are able to use bad things as a lever
to learn something profound about themselves and in rare cases to
help others find the same emotional tools. Ron Greer has that
tremendous gift. Thank God he is willing to share it with us.

Ron Greer touches our hearts and gives us some great insights
into healing and hope with this book. Ron writes from the depths of
his own grief and his journey to healing as he and his wife dealt
with the death of their two-year-old son. I have known Ron for
thirty-five years, and he is made of the real stuff. He enables the
reader to deal with real stuff with his book. The reader will be
amazed at the hope the book produces on each page.

Markings on the Windowsill "is sacred ground. When a person of Ron
Greer s depth and compassion bares his soul, and that of his
amazing wife, Karen, one treads with reverence and rapt
attention.
Be "careful" with this book When you pick it up, go to a very
quiet place, and plan to be there awhile.
God will speak to you. Your life will be changed. I promise.
