This book is the story of being married to an unbeliever. It is the story of a wife's forty-year prayer journey, praying for her husband's salvation, her lifelong struggles in the marriage, and remaining faithful in prayer. It is the story of God's faithfulness to hear and answer prayer in His time. It is the story of a God who loves without measure and walks with us when in the furnace of affliction. It is the story of an ordinary woman with a tenacious determination to not give up on her God-given assignment to pray. It is the story of faith rewarded, missions accomplished, and the power of prayer. It is the story of how God gives joy for our journeys and grace as we wait upon Him.
The vision is yet for the appointed time: It hastens towards the goal, and it will not fail. Though it tarries, wait for it. --Habakkuk 2:3
