Grace for God’s fractured and imperfect children
Sometimes we wonder why life seems so hard. We want to know how to find our happily ever after. We struggle and fall down, and long for someone to tell us everything’s going to be ok. We long for someone to come alongside and love us just as we are right where we are. We need a purpose and direction.
Through Cracked Glass: Grace for God’s fractured and imperfect children does just that. Yes, life is hard. Yes, lessons are difficult. Yes, relationships are exhausting. But God longs to give us grace upon grace. He longs to smooth those rough places in our journey by using His other fractured and imperfect children to find you in your mess and gently lead you to safety.
God uses the community of the broken to bring healing and courage to the weary traveler.

Excerpt: A Little Lamb
My feet were beginning to hurt like they tended to do after a few hours into my shift. But that’s retail work for you. There’s not any sitting down happening unless you’re on your scheduled 15-minute break or your 30-minute timed lunch.
But it was a sunny day, which always made me more cheerful, and they had put me on the self-scans, where I preferred to be. But I guess I should back up just a bit.
The previous year, I had packed up my Chevy Malibu and driven across the country from Arizona to Michigan, after resigning from my good-paying job and emptying out my condo. As you know from previous chapters, my mom had been diagnosed with dementia/Alzheimer’s, and I knew Dad would be needing some help. We had decided to keep Mom at home for as long as possible, so I moved in and assisted where I could. But I still had a car payment to make, so I also had to find some part-time work, and retail was about the extent of what I could locate. The pay was super low, but it was better than nothing.
