James saw her many years ago in his home country Scotland and was never able to get her out of his mind. His dear friend Annie MacKay, a renowned medium, tells him what he needs to know in order to find her again.

Whenever Christa Black looked in the mirror, she was waging a war with herself. Her hatred of her face and body drove her, as a young woman, into frantic overachievement, addiction, and an eating disorder that landed her in rehab. A preacher's kid, she'd grown up imagining God as a "thou shalt not" tyrant. It was only when she miraculously discovered God's unconditional love for her--physical imperfections, moral failings, and all--that she finally began to accept herself. As she tells her story, Christa shares the tools she uses to combat the self-rejection that harms so many people's lives. In this raw testimony, Christa Black takes women on a step-by-step journey of faith and positive belief to reveal that if God loves ugly, then we can too.
Our lives are made up of moments. Some we hope to remember forever and some we long to forget. But it's the tapestry of these moments that come together to write the story God is telling through each of our lives. In ETCHED . . . UPON MY HEART, Jill Kelly shares some of the unforgettable moments in her life-some sorrowful, others filled with joy-as a "living epistle" to her daughters. Kelly's raw and honest reflections provide encouragement and inspiration for women and mothers who long to pass on hard-won knowledge of God's steadfast love and healing grace to their children. As she writes, "God will break our hearts, but He will hold the pieces. He will cradle us and redeem every tear we cry." Although great personal pain informs these pages, Kelly's story is ultimately one of forgiveness, reconciliation, and hope. Through the moments in time that Jill Kelly recounts, you will recognize the daily reality and eternal value of God's plan for your own life.

Everything in my life was on track, just like it was supposed to be, and exactly how I had planned. I was in a loving relationship, had a nice house, a good job, a great family, and was just about to welcome our son into this world. We couldn't wait another moment for our new adventure as a family to begin. But the moment Theo was born, everything changed. I was met with challenges and emotions I did not plan for and had no control over. I lost my identity and had no idea if I would ever see that person again. I muddled through, longing for my old life back. Why did I feel like this when this was all I had dreamed about for so long? Feeling ashamed of how I felt, I isolated myself and my feelings. But as time went on, I began to realise that there is no normal and there is no shame in missing my old life. Everyone's experiences are different; all babies have their own agenda, and our bodies and minds do not always react in the way we want or plan for. I decided to share my journey to help mothers to be honest about the reality of motherhood - the good and the bad. As a first-time parent, I had no former experience and perhaps unrealistic expectations of what parenting really looked like, and I was overwhelmed with the reality. I was too ashamed to speak up and say how I felt in fear of not living up to the picture-perfect mother, but the only one who suffered was me. This book exposes the reality of motherhood beyond the perfect Instagram posts, and the pleasantries shared between mums over a coffee. But as time went on, I started to find my own unique path, being the best mum, I could possibly be. Finally letting go of my unrealistic expectations of motherhood. I realised (maybe later than others) that the rewards to motherhood are priceless, more extraordinary than anything I ever expected. They are unpredictable, incomparable, and irreplaceable. They are to be kept safe inside us as a reminder of why we embarked on this beautiful turbulent journey in the first place.

Becoming a first-time mom is an incredibly beautiful and transformative experience, but it also comes with its fair share of emotional changes and mood swings. It's completely normal to feel a rollercoaster of emotions during this time, as your body adjusts to the hormonal fluctuations and the overwhelming responsibilities of caring for a new baby. In this subchapter, we will explore the various emotional changes and mood swings that new moms might experience, along with some practical tips to navigate through them.One common emotional change that many new moms face is the "baby blues." These are characterized by feelings of sadness, anxiety, and irritability, usually occurring a few days after giving birth. The baby blues are caused by hormonal changes and the adjustment to the demands of motherhood. It's important to remember that these feelings are temporary and usually subside within a couple of weeks. However, if the symptoms persist or worsen, it could be a sign of postpartum depression, which requires professional help.Mood swings are another common occurrence during the postpartum period. You may find yourself laughing one moment and crying the next, without any apparent reason. These mood swings are a result of hormonal changes, lack of sleep, and the stress of adapting to your new role as a mother. It's crucial to be patient with yourself and seek support from your loved ones. Remember, you're not alone in this journey, and there are many resources available to help you cope.To manage emotional changes and mood swings effectively, it's important to prioritize self-care. Taking time for yourself, even if it's just a few minutes each day, can make a significant difference in your emotional well-being. Engage in activities that bring you joy and help you relax, such as reading, taking a bath, or practicing deep breathing exercises. Additionally, reaching out to other new moms or joining a support group can provide a sense of community and validation.It's also essential to communicate your emotions and needs to your partner, family, or friends. Sharing your feelings and concerns can help alleviate the emotional burden and allow your loved ones to provide the support you require. Remember, seeking help is not a sign of weakness but a sign of strength and self-awareness.
