Oceans Bright with Stars (The Journey Mama Writings) (Volume 2) Rachel Devenish Ford

Oceans Bright With Stars is a book about overcoming difficult circumstances to reap the joy of persistence. Picking up where Trees Tall as Mountains left off, Rachel Devenish Ford writes about her family?s gutsy, wild decision to move across the world and make their life in a village in India, navigating water problems and power cuts, beating back the jungle and embracing a new culture. In the first months, as Rachel comes to terms with what it truly means to leave everything, she experiences panic and a strong sense of dislocation. As Rachel seeks to trust God and searches for beauty and familiarity in her new home, she finds it in unexpected places. The second book in the Journey Mama Writings series, Oceans Bright as Stars is a collection of posts from Rachel?s blog full of humor and evocative writing about loving a place you?ve left and learning to love the place you?ve adopted. From the Author: All of the writing in Oceans Bright with Stars is previously published and available for free on my blog. You can access it by clicking through my archives, if you are so inclined. I compiled The Journey Mama Writings, the best of the blog, to make a more convenient and lovely reading experience. Either way, enjoy!
