This Glorious Battle

The battles of this life are hard! Initially they appear to be daunting and devastating. Hope seems elusive and sorrow seems pervasive. God, in His Word, promises a different paradigm. He whispers the reality that these battles can, in fact, be His greatest blessing. This Glorious Battle invites you to join Carol Samuelson as she learns to embrace His perspective of this battle. It is a practical narrative of how God is teaching her to walk with His joy, to suffer within the security of His presence, to embrace His overcoming hope, and to fight with His strength. The cancer continues to rage; the losses continue to accumulate; the fears continue to threaten. From a human perspective there is no proverbial happy ending. Yet this is not the end of the story. God has a perfect plan which He is accomplishing in His perfect time for His perfect glory. Let there be no doubt - this battle is glorious! Dr. Carol Detzler Samuelson lives in Connecticut with her husband, Scott and their sweet brown labrador, Kona. She cherishes time with their two daughters, two son-in-laws, as well as their five precious grandchildren. She finds great joy in her calling as a teacher, either within the classroom or walking alongside others. She loves to read, write, travel and entertain. Most of all, however, she lives to proclaim the reality that with God this life is glorious.
