Awesome New Book by Jill Kelly


Etched Upon My Heart… as I write this I feel like I need to take a deep breath from the overwhelming emotions that this book brings out in its reader.  Last year, I heard Jill Kelly share her testimony on our local Christian radio station, so when I saw this book again, I immediately was ready to read more, but I wasn’t ready for how beautiful and profound this book would be.

Jill Kelly in Etched Upon My Heart tells with life’s most deep emotions and actions:  love, forgiveness, suffering, prayer, giving, faithfulness, as well as others.  Jill will ask as you begin to read the book to bring your own memories along for the ride.  You can’t help but remember as Jill lays her heart and soul bare for her readers. 

One of the many cool things in this book is the Bible verses at the end of each chapter that relate to the topic she’s discussed.  One of my favorite examples of this is at the end of the chapter on Significance; Jill shares one of my favorite Bible passages. 

Jeremiah 29:11-14 “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD.  “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.  In those days when you pray, I will listen.  If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.  I will be found by you”, says the LORD…

You need to read Jill Kelly’s Etched Upon My Heart when it’s available tomorrow, not because I said so, but because she will touch your heart and your mind with her thoughtful sharing and insights.
