For some, the world is a painful and fractured place-a place where their spirits have been tainted by tragedy, intimidation, and the loss of love or loved ones. In this book, popular Christian Bookseller Association (CBA) author Patsy Clairmont addresses this pain and suggests that those in search of healing turn to the book of Nehemiah for insight, instruction and encouragement. Through Nehemiah the reader will learn how to guard her heart and how to open the doors when trust is required; how to live with a servant's heart and how to overcome the fear of subjection; and when to work and when to pray. Using scripture and stories from her own experiences as well as those of others, Patsy illustrates how hearts and dreams can be rejuvenated and rebuilt and that the trip through the valley can lead to the mountain top.
