Where can we turn when challenges and difficulties arise? Lynn Severance's "Seeking the Light of God's Comforter--When Challenges Dim Our View" points us to the Holy Spirit who brings comfort and light to our pathways. Educator Lynn Severance knows about the challenges chronic illness and shorter seasons of loss bring. She has chosen to reach for the presence of God in the midst of those times. Her sixty thoughtful devotions, each accompanied with a full page colored photograph, warm-hearted stories, and a study guide for discussions, bring renewed hope and encouragement to those experiencing times of trials.

"Comfort is a God-given grace that can surprise and almost overtake us during the most painful and tumultuous times . . . God sends relief through the consolation of an uplifting word, an inspiring image, an insightful question, and an encouraging remark. This is why I love Lynn Severance's new book. Through photos, quotations, intuitive questions and warm-hearted stories, Lynn helps the reader embrace the solace of the Holy Spirit. With every page, we find another reason to trust God through the toughest of times. I heartily recommend this special devotional book--something that will bolster every hurting heart!"
