[.ca] I've Got to Talk to Somebody, God: A Woman's ... (ISBN 0553264281)

A Wonderful Book:
I first found this book (an earlier edition)on my mother-in-law's nightstand after she died, and loved reading it. I have since rediscovered it and have already ordered 11 copies to read and give to my friends. I'm ordering another 5 to give to more friends. The book has a wonderful way of helping you look at everyday events, and see the blessings in everything. It reminds us that we can always go to God - whether the need is great or small, or just to praise him for our blessings.

This book was a comfort to me after the loss of mother.:
I lost my dearest friend, my mother, in 1966. She died suddenly and I was totally grief-stricken. I found I was unable to grieve in the proper way. At the time of the funeral, my Pastor's wife gave me this book for comfort. Little did she know how she helped me. The section entitled, "The New Dimension" became the prayers I prayed both for me and my mother. When I read "The Message", I smiled through my tears, It was as if she knew my mother and had been in her house! She wrote such wonderful memories. The second paragraph reminded me that my mother too, was ready to go Home, just as if she was ready to go to church on Sunday. "The Lesson of Loss" reminded me that there were those who were ready to comfort me if I would let them. My grief became easier to bear and my tears started me on the healing process. "Be Still and Know" helped me realize that my mother was healed now and no longer suffering. And "The New Dimension of Love" thrilled me in knowing that I would see mother again in heaven. I am now a Pastor's wife and I have tried to find this book to give to several of our congregation who have suffered loss. I triumphed over my grief with the simple prayers and passages in this book. I want to share it with anyone who has suffered a loss, especially of a mother. Thank you, Marjorie Holmes, for giving me strength.
