Description
Donna Eder recounts her spiritual awakening and the path that unfolded as a result. The illness and eventual death of her mother from ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) brought her family closer to each other and closer to God. After her mother's death, Donna had an experience of Divine union that has reverberated throughout her life. Using dreams and journaling, she has learned to stay in touch with her inner truth. When she began to follow the leadings of her heart, she saw both her inner and outer life transform, and she was able to experience wholeness. Her story offers an illustration of how to approach our spiritual journeys and remain open to the movements of Spirit in our lives. -- Publisher's description.
