Dear Reader,

Like most kids, my sister and I didn’t always get along as we were growing up. But during one pivotal semester in college, we lived together, studied together and truly discovered what it meant to be friends. Now we live almost 2,000 miles apart, but by the grace of God that bond has remained, growing stronger over the years so that I can truthfully call her my best friend.

Like my sister and me, Heather and Kit shared a special bond. When it was broken, Heather became so consumed with avenging Kit’s death that she stopped listening to God’s direction for her life, stopped trusting God’s justice would prevail. Of course, Jeremy struggled with a similar problem—carrying guilt over something that ultimately was never in his control.

I pray that after reading Heather and Jeremy’s story, you’ll be encouraged and reminded that God is always in control. We won’t always understand His plan this side of heaven, but we can trust in who God is. He has proven Himself faithful, and He is a just God, whose mercies are new every morning.

Thank you for spending time with us. I’d love to hear from you and what you thought of this book. You can e-mail me at liz@lizjohnsonbooks.com or visit my website at www.lizjohnsonbooks.com. Thanks again for joining me on this adventure. I hope we have many more to come.
