In The Midst of it All: God Is There

She should not have survived.A teenage girl is found alone in a park with a stranger who turns predator. There is a foster care system that punishes the victim and protects the abuser. And there is a man who whispers "I love you" before pulling the trigger.Veta Matthews has stared down every nightmare life could throw at her, but she was never alone. God gave her the strength to stand, endure, and walk away unscathed from the trials of life.From the muddy ground of Forrest Park, where a thunderstorm became her unlikely shield, to an emergency room where a bullet lodged inches from her spine, to a surgeon's table where cancer tried to claim what violence could not: this is the story of a woman, who by the grace of God, persevered through every adversity.In the Midst of It All is a story about the piece of you that survives when everything else is trying to kill it. You hear it whisper, keep running when your legs want to quit. And you feel the invisible hand that refuses to let you disappear.If you wonder whether God shows up in the mess...right in the middle of it, this book is your answer.You will laugh and cry and lose your breath. And by the last page, you will never look at your own story the same way again.
