Who I Am With You
is the story of Andrew Henning who lived in Kuna, Idaho and married
Helen Greyson in 1929. The Great Depression had a profound effect on
the Hennings' lives, but together they recovered emotionally and
spiritually. It is also the story of Andrew and Helen's
great-granddaughter, Jessica Mason, who, pregnant and widowed, lived
in Hope Springs, Idaho during current times. Jessica lived for a long
time acting a part and pressing down true feelings, but through her
great-grandfather's Bible and her new neighbor, Ridley Chesterfield,
is ready to allow God to do a new work in her. Ridley, too, is
seeking a new direction after being falsely accused of
underhandedness, and having his integrity questioned. He felt that a
time apart from society and alone with God would provide that
direction, but was totally amazed at where God lead him, and with
whom.
Who I Am With You
is a tale about who we can be through God in spite of our mistakes
and circumstances. It is about the person we can be aided by those
whom God places in our lives, about deciding to love and to allow
ourselves to be loved, and deciding to forgive and trust again. I
recommend this book to those who love a sweet, heart-warming story,
and especially to those who need hope in their lives.

NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
