In this final book of the Shine series, the author addresses the life she's experienced since the death of her husband, Nathan.

The only source of true comfort & joy is the Lord Jesus Christ. In this book about forgiveness, you will learn ways to access the fullness of Christ by letting go of those hurtful things from the past that keep dragging you down. So often in life, we are held back by our past. We have been hurt by others, or we've done things we are ashamed of, and feel like no one understands or could possibly forgive us. Jesus does understand and He will forgive you, no matter what you have done. Letting go of the past, forgiving and forgetting our past hurts, shame, fears, resentments, and grief will free us to move forward and be all that God wants us to be. He has a plan for us, a future full of happiness, comfort & joy, if only we will let Him.

When life seems to be on a downward slide, or the chaos is just too much, God has a plan. But even Christians sometimes forget that in order to know God's plan, we have to listen to what God says. He will never steer you wrong. Within these pages you'll find biblical examples of God speaking to His people. Some listened and reaped the rewards; some didn't and suffered the consequences. But no matter what happened, God continued to love His people, and that remains true today. No matter where you've been, God knows where you're going, and He wants you to take His hand and follow Him.
