'Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.' John 14:6
One of Deb's biggest regrets was the time wasted when she lost contact with her family and ran away from home. Time so precious and never to be regained. But it was all in God's plan and in His control. Deb certainly redeemed the time, spending her last few months writing her story so that you may learn from the mistakes she made, but also that you too may know the saving and forgiving love of the Lord Jesus Christ.
If Deb was still here, she would tell you, life is short and there is no time to waste. Deb tells her true story of incredible joys, and unbelievable heartache, intermingled with laughter. Join Deb as she bares her heart, shares joys and pains, telling of the eternal goodness, grace and love of her Saviour.
"It is a great honour to recommend to you this account of our great God at work in the life of one of His children. I have had the great privilege of knowing Deb and witnessing first-hand the moving of God in her heart to bring her to Himself. It was a joy to be a part of her baptism, to see her become Mrs. Deb Cooper and to have the opportunity to be a pastor to her and Mash through times of blessings and challenges. Through the ups and down and many struggles, God used Deb's life; a life yielded to Him even through the valley of the shadow of death, to influence many souls to seek our Saviour. May this encourage each of us to strive to finish strong as our dear sister Deb, 'forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.' May we seek to leave this world as right with our great God as is humanly possible. It was Deb's desire and prayer that the Lord would use this book to encourage and challenge many to turn their eyes upon the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour." - Pastor Derrick Morlan
