Published in by
Genre: Inspirational
ISBN: N/A


Janelle and Kevin Trent are happily married but Janelle feels no matter how much she loves Kevin, her life would be more complete with a baby. She has tried everything to become pregnant but nothing seems to be happening. The treatments have come to the point of being of none effect and it only makes her more anxious not to mention put a wedge in her and Kevin’s life where now it appears they have started to avoid each other. Kevin is in love with his wife, for the long haul, with or without children. She is the most important thing in his life, and even if they never have a child, he feels his family is complete. After all, there are other ways to have children, if they cannot produce their own. He can’t make her understand it makes no difference to him as long as she is in his life. In the beginning, he was there for her, even helping with the initiation of the shots but after the fourth consultant, he had no desire to attend. When his patience can no longer take it anymore, he says no more. He tells Janelle that they are both emotionally and physically, not to mention financially, broke and it all has to stop.

Janelle knows it would most likely take a miracle for her to have a baby, but someone must have run out of miracles because no matter what she does or tries, nothing seems to be working. Even her prayers appear to be going unanswered. She realizes the amount of money spent on the fertility treatments is becoming costly so decides to go to the credit union and apply for a line of credit. All her faith is dissipating and Kevin doesn’t understand how important this is to her. She doesn’t wish to lose him but she feels their little spats are causing a rift in their relationship. Kevin believes they already are blessed with much. He loves Janelle but the fixating of becoming pregnant is becoming too much for him. For once he would like to be an item with Janelle but all that has been thrown out the window.

When he married Janelle, it was better or worse, sickness and in health but this obsessive behavior of hers with the fertility, the shots, and the medicine, is rapidly pushing him away. He is growing tired and frustrated over the whole entire situation. He can’t recall the last time they even had fun as a couple and he is tired of being a stranger to his wife. If only she would see that they are already truly blessed perhaps things would go back to normal. Even if they never had a child, there were many children that had no families that needed a place to call home. With their money disappearing as fast as they can make it on her treatments, he knows things have to shift in their relationship. The more she sees Janelle in so much agony, not only from the shots, but the anticipation of becoming pregnant; it takes its toll on Kevin. No longer does he feel important in her life, and until they explore other options, there is no point to a one-sided marriage. Janelle needs to face up to either choosing Kevin or a child if she wishes to have her marriage restored to what it was when they said I do.

Love’s Blessings is an enriching story that lends hope, love and strength. It’s a story of two people finding that one important thing in life to keep them together and a mending of the hearts. Janelle and Kevin are believable characters that act upon a situation that often happens to many couples who wish a child and unable to become pregnant. Ms. Braden sketches two people who truly do love each other, but while one feels something may be missing, the other feels it is complete and is willing to weigh the options so they can meet in the middle. I could feel both their emotions as they endured the consequences of the events at hand.

Ms. Braden crafts a heartrending story of love, devotion and the length a couple goes in a marriage that can turn amiss without enough faith, and love from God, when people fail to remember He is there for us if we only believe. Sometimes when we really desire something to happen immediately, as a human, it is hard to understand why it can’t happen now, but all good things eventually come to those who wait. It may take years but if it is meant to happen, it will happen. Impressible characters, with great in-depth sensations that touch the heart, make this one recommended read that shouldn’t be missed. This gifted author instills how important it is to have enough faith and love to make a reality happen in one’s life. All things are possible with God, but first a person must believe in Him and have Him a part of one’s life for prayers to be answered. This well-crafted story touches upon so many things and demonstrates how struggles are often hard in any loving relationship but reaping the rewards makes it all the worthwhile. For anyone wishing to feel an elation that really leaves a great feeling then why not drop on by www.bygracepublishing.com where one can find a most satisfying story in Love’s Blessings.

Yours in good reading,
Rose!
