Excerpt

From Chapter 1 of A Journey to Unshakable Faith

Indoors in a well-furnished room in the left wing of the castle, a young girl stood gazing out of the glass-paned, crystal-clear window. Who would have thought the siege would last so long? Only last week, her head had been full of the kind of things every ordinary fourteen-year-old girl dreams of. Then, like an icy blast of wind freezing anything standing in its path, an enemy from the North had come, and nothing was the same.

A castle under siege. Turmoil within and an enemy without. These things used to seem far off, the kinds of circumstances she read about in books that vanished when she closed the cover. Now, they were just as real as the invading army, surrounding and slowly closing in—old, ruthless, and terrible.

A tear slowly slid down her cheek. She hastily brushed it away. More followed. Did no one know of their plight? Doubts and fears whirled through her mind. Did God not hear them? How could He allow this to happen? She began to pace back and forth as she mentally rebuked herself.

Now, Esther, you know that’s not true. Of course, God hears us. But why is this happening to us? Why doesn't anyone come to our aid?
