Trust God, love people : stories of my openhanded faith / Jenny Marrs.

Marrs, Jenny, 1979- (author.).

Summary:

"When Jenny Marrs looks at all the ways God has shown up in her life, she's left with immense gratitude for a God who is always, ever faithful. Even as she has trusted that God was leading her, the big picture of her journey was often murky and unknown. In Trust God, Love People, Jenny opens wide the doors to her life and her family's home to share stories of how little steps of faith have added up to an unexpected and abundant life. We ride shotgun next to her as she moves to Bentonville, Arkansas, where she knows almost no one, and watch her slowly put down roots. The sweet stories of how she met Dave and of their early days of marriage and first homes together are here, as are the candid pain and hope of their time spent waiting to start a family before joyfully welcoming their twin boys. Jenny shares intimate glimpses into their years-long fight to adopt their daughter Sylvie from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, as well as behind-the-scenes details about how their work to restore old homes became Fixer to Fabulous. Through it all, Jenny learns that God is trustworthy even in the moments when she feels fearful, worn out, or dejected. Trust God, Love People is a guiding principle in Jenny's life, and serves as a reminder that steadfast trust in our faithful, loving God allows us to love others well. As we, like Jenny, learn to take our next step in faith and love the people around us, we can walk confidently into adventures beyond our wildest expectations"-- Provided by publisher.
