Craving Grace - Lisa Velthouse

[Phantom Paragrapher]

Craving Grace takes readers on a journey into Lisa's life as we discuss her up's and downs , her triumphs and failures . For Lisa, she had been brought up in a christian home and had the sermons go through her ears Sunday after Sundays . At the age of nineteen , whilst walking down her dorm's corridor with a hot chocolate in hand , she decided to make a vow to God - to hold off kissing until she met the "perfect one" , the one that God had chosen for her in her life. The vow was going well until after twenty years , Lisa decided that she wasn't really getting anywhere with God and that her faith in him was slipping and for somebody who knew God the way Lisa did, this scared her . So Lisa turned to do what many Christians do when they want to get back on track with God and move closer to them , she decided to fast and give up her favourite indulgences of sweets and chocolate. This was going well for Lisa until she was invited to her younger sister's wedding and the next morning, she awoke next to one of the groomsmen - who at that moment , Lisa shared not only her first kiss with him but also her second. At this shock, Lisa's faith in God starts to crumble drastically as all the hard work she had put in for him , with just one morning had crumbled, destroyed for nothing. What followed is the result of Craving Grace by Lisa Velthouse as she decided to put her bitterness and lack of faith in God to a bigger purpose and to help herself rediscover the Grace within herself , something that by focusing on her vow along the way she had misplaced.
Craving Grace is an inspiring Christian Memoir about One Woman's journey to find the Grace in her life after one broken promise lead to a bitter heart.
