More from Jill

It happened in slow motion.

I was traveling on the interstate at 65 mph, in the far-left lane. The traffic was heavy but moving.

Then the unthinkable happened. A wheelbarrow fell off the back of a pickup truck in front of my car.

Swerving to my right lane wasn’t an option, it was full of cars. The left shoulder was narrow and led to a steep drop off.

I gripped the wheel and had a split second to weigh my options. If I maintained my course, the wheelbarrow would burst through my windshield. If I went to the right, I could cause a multi-car pileup. There was a tractor trailer close behind me, so I couldn’t hit my brakes.

I prepared myself for the worst. Then I prayed to God to help me.

Moments later, when I was safely off the interstate, I burst into tears. I was still alive. No one was injured. But how? I couldn’t recall how I got to the exit ramp. How was I able to guide my car around the wheelbarrow?

Later, I realized that God was truly in control of my life. Growing up in the church and listening to my grandmother, I had always known God loved me. But that day, I felt His love more than I ever had my life. He wanted me to live. But why?

I’d like to think that He wasn’t quite finished with me. That maybe He had better things in store for me. Perhaps He blessed me with a gift to weave together a story that can give a person hope. A story that can bring a little light into what is sometimes a dark and scary world. After all, I didn’t grow up wanting to be a writer. Like that day on the interstate, it’s all God’s goodness.


My Thoughts 


Searching for Home is another great story that is written by Jill Weatherholt.  This has to be my favorite book of hers to date. The cover is adorable, the storyline is unique and heartwarming, and a perfect second chance story. 


 Luke Beckett is a professional bull rider who is injured and heads back to his home town. He is staying at a B and B. His host and ironically his physical therapist is his old flame Meg Brennan.  Luke is surprised to see triplets in Meg’s care. The kids have some issues since they were essentially abandoned by their parents and are living with their aunt.  Meg has been handling a lot since Luke last saw her. Luke broke Meg’s heart so she’s shocked when he’s back in town. 


Meg has had a family history of family in the rodeo and has seen the aftermath that injuries can cause. She tries to shield the kids from it. However it seems like they are drawn toward Luke. Luke seems to be able to bring, Tucker, out of his shell. 


Can time heal all wounds? Can they put the last behind them? 


I received a copy of this book through the Celebrate Lit Blogging Program. All thoughts are my own.
