In Heaven Touching Earth, the author draws the reader into her world, through personal experiences which are humorous, heart-breaking, and everywhere in between. Organized as a daily devotional, each of the 40 days has a Bible verse specifically related to the story of the day as well as a reflection. In meditating on the Bible verses, reading the stories, and reflecting on their own personal experiences, the reader can be brought into a deeper relationship with God and learn to recognize their own everyday encounters with the Lord.
Following is an excerpt from Day 11, Experiencing God Through Children: The Bible verse for that day is, "Let the children come to Me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God." Luke 18:16 "When I was younger, I knew I was an impatient person, so I prayed to God for patience. Of course, I was expecting God to suddenly and drastically change me into a patient person. In my mind, it went something like this, 'Voila, one patient person coming up!' Well, I soon discovered that God doesn't work like a magical genie. No, instead of making me instantaneously patient, God gave me something infinitely better. He gave me many, many opportunities to practice patience by placing in my care 13 children. Be careful what you pray for!"
