From the first day you grieved your loss, you were already starting on a journey of changing seasons. With each passing day, month and year, these times have brought with them a different perspective; a different way of thinking, feeling and acknowledgment of our loss and the pain that accompanies it. Each new season brings forth opportunity to come into a closer walk with God, learning a new way to deal with what God's purposes are for our lives.

"Touches of Heaven Right Here on Earth"

The best stories -- the ones that touch our hearts at their very cores, the ones that inspire us to our greatest heights -- are true stories of ordinary people just like ourselves. People who share a kind word in time of need, who do a simple deed that lifts a weary heart, who make a difference in a difficult day.

The stories in this book are not about great, winged celestial beings sent from heaven's majestic gates. No, these stories are about "earth" angels. The kind of angels who unknowingly intercept a suicide attempt through a gentle act of kindness, beam messages of hope over an old CB radio, or provide patient care in a duck suit.

As you read the stories in this book, your spirit will be inspired and the strings of your heart tuned to opportunities for you to be a little bit of heaven right here on earth.
