Mary Singer Wick offers a poignant and honest portrayal of her myriad experiences, and how she eventually comes to find herself through a direct relationship with God. For anyone who doubts the presence of a higher power, this book will give your heart wings.

Introduction: Have you ever made a promise you really didn’t think you’d have to keep? You know–something you say in passing that you’ll do someday, but you’re not exactly making a sincere commitment to do it. You don’t really believe it will ever be brought up in conversation again, and you’ve forgotten yourself that you even said it.

Mary’s book roped me in right away.  She tells her story of a long series of meaningless relationships and then battling her way through many years of illness including the diagnosis that she would more than likely not be able to have children.

Mary’s book is all about walking in faith, and I had to admire her strong and consistent will as she was misdiagnosed, and struggled with poor self esteem brought on by what the illness did to her body and the fact that she couldn’t seem to find Mr. Right.

Her book read well and shared a message of encouragement and hope – no matter what.  At times I had to wonder where Mary found her strength as she seemed to battle on against the odds, then I remembered, Mary found her strength in God – time and again.   Mary’s book recently hit the best sellers list at Amazon.
