This inspirational true story, described by renowned author J.I. Packer as “beautifully told,” will encourage readers that miracles do exist, and that God is able to do immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine.
When Tandela travels to Uganda after university, she has no idea what kind of adventure lies ahead. While spending long days at an orphanage, her heart breaks for the sickest baby of them all. In what she describes as a “silent stirring in my soul,” Tandela experiences the unmistakable call of God to pursue adoption of this baby boy – one who has been abandoned at birth and given only one month to live. She is told that her hope to adopt Mark will most likely be futile, if he even survives. Spurred on by a deep parental love that can only be described as God-given, Tandela nonetheless courageously embarks on what becomes a nerve-racking quest that will serve to test her faith like never before. In the beautiful country of Uganda, whose northern region is being ravaged by war, Tandela faces one obstacle after another on this journey fraught with loneliness, doubts, and fears, but pierced with moments of pure joy.
