Incredible autobiography about God's provision for this missionary family!

This autobiography has been an incredible encouragement to my family and me. It is proof of God's provision for those who choose to live according to God's will. Life doesn't always go as we expect it to or want it to but God is always there and everything that He allows to happen in our lives He will use for His own glory. There are amazing stories inside this book of God's hand in the midst of this family's everyday life. I was touched by the author's honesty regarding her feelings about whether or not God would provide but He always came through and in His perfect timing as He does in all of His children's lives. It's great to read a book that gives true insight into the real world but also offers the encouragement that can only come through an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. I will keep this book to read again later as I believe it is worth reading more than once and it's worth keeping for our family library.

Excellent insight

This book is a great testimony of the love and compassion of Jesus Christ. The author clearly leads the reader through her path to Brazil using her own life story. The author honestly conveys her struggles and doubts as she and her family obediently follow Jesus on a path to the streets of Brazil. Once in Brazil, the reader is introduced to the hard facts that the 6 million street children face every day. This testimony was inspiring and challenging all in the same respect. I not only recommend this book for anyone who is interested in missions or Brazil, but anyone who is interested in truly seeing the loving heart of God at work in the world. Thank you Jeannette Lukasse for taking the time to write your story.
