The Traveler and the Heavy Burden

Publisher's Description

Others would have given up long ago with burdens such as yours, but you are here. If only you could see the distance you have traveled. Know this: your journey was not without purpose. You shall see.

The road is immense, stretching as far as the eye can see. Among the countless individuals making their way ahead, a lone woman slowly presses forward, carrying a load far too heavy to bear. With no one with whom to share her burden, she yearns to reach the end of her painful journey. Just when she is ready to give up, the miracles begin.

An act of kindness. A word of encouragement. A reminder of her worth. Buoyed by the assistance of compassionate strangers along the path, the woman finds the strength to continue her journey until she finds the One who can offer her greater peace and acceptance than she has ever dreamed possible.

For those seeking respite from the pains and heartache of life, this profound tale of one broken traveler's journey is a powerful reminder of the love of the King of Kings, who is waiting with open arms to offer strength, love, and relief.

My Review

A short read, but what a beautiful parable. Of the books I have received, this one is a definite must read. More so than the others. Lives depend on it. I need dozens of copies to leave in my wake. I will do the review a little better justice. As someone who works with people who struggle with mental health and with a desire to help women with issues on how they view themselves, this is so beautiful and hit me right in the heart. Bravo! Beautifully illustrated as well. I can’t say enough about this book. Also, like I said this is a short read. You don't have to be a huge reader, it took me about 20 minutes and it was well worth it and lifted my day. I don't know that there is anyone who can't relate to the feelings this book evokes. It is essential for every woman that struggles with feelings of worth and with helplessness. Please read this book, then share it with every important person in your life. The message is universal.
