God Makes Lemonade by Don Jacobson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
“God Makes Lemonade” is a series of stories, collected by Don Jacobson, that illustrates, that life will throw us curveballs, but though we may feel that there isn’t a light at the end of the tunnel, reading the stories of those, whose lives were turned upside by unexpected events, only to come out in the end, stronger and for the better, is a hopeful reminder that life isn’t as sour as we may think.
Don writes in the afterward,”Love can change the world, and faith can get us through tough times. But sometimes we act like we can live without hope. I don’t know about you, but the times I’m best at loving and being faithful are the times I’m also filled with a sense of hope.”
Can’t that be said about any of us.
We have our faith and we have love for those who are around us and even those we’ve yet to know, but in “God Makes Lemonade”, these series of collections, take things one more and adds hope to the mixture.
For many….its more than just having faith, but also having that needed hope, not about the future, but about the next hour, or the next day, and with, “God Makes Lemonade”, Don Jacobson, brings a collection, that is a reminder, of those lemonade moments, when life seemed sour, only to have God sweeten it unexpectedly.
Something to note about, “God Makes Lemonade”, not only does it bring, to the reader, a collection of stories that enrich the heart, but proceeds from the book, goes to the LemonAid Foundation, that is geared toward supporting single moms.
You can read more stories of “lemonade” that people have discovered in their life, by going to godmakeslemonade.com and following “God Makes Lemonade” on facebook at facebook.com/godmakeslemonade.
No matter where you are in life, this is a collection of stories, that will lift your heart, bring tears to your eyes and a humble reminder of the life, God has blessed us with.
