Beauty Defiled Beauty Revealed

<p>     What happens when you have God's blessing nailed down and then without warning an evil intruder rips everything apart?<br /><br />I had a corner on the good life. Driven by my material appetite strategically balanced by religion I desperately played both sides. Comfortable in a good marriage with two kids and a home situated on a small horse farm I was truly blessed.<br/<br/>     Everything changed in an instant with the discovery of a lump but some things changed in ways I could never have imagined.<br />By probing the joy and heartache of the past in the redemptive light of precious promises kept this narrative paints a picture of beauty defiled unfolding to startling beauty revealed. You're invited on a journey of discovery that may change the way you think about blessing.<br />A story of praise and healing though not in the popular sense; it's a drama of marital love and faithfulness that prevails against great odds.<br /><br />Rev.
