Johanna Dumay came to the city chasing a better future, but what she carried with her was heavier than any suitcase-a heart of stone. Born from a broken home, her life was marked by disappointment, her dreams buried beneath years of loneliness and despair. In a nation that called itself "Christian," Johanna found no comfort-only deeper doubts. If God was truly loving, why had He let her world fall apart? With each passing day, her heart grew colder, her soul hardening into the very image of misery. And then-He showed up. An encounter she never saw coming begins to shatter the walls around her. The life she thought was meaningless is suddenly rewritten by grace, and every morning feels like waking into a miracle she never dared to hope for. This is the story of a woman once lost beyond saving-until love Himself found her. A story that whispers a truth many long to believe: no heart is too hard, no life too broken, no soul too far gone for God. --- "But Johanna-" her voice cracked with disbelief, eyes narrowing as if searching for the girl I once was, "you were the devil's darling all your life. What in the world happened to you!?" I drew in a breath, the weight of every scar, every midnight battle, every broken piece of me pressing into that single moment. "Jesus," I whispered, "Jesus happened to me."

Sixteen-year-old Bella Garling is an orphan who thinks she is cast into a hypocritical Christian family by the foster care system. Bella is strictly not religious at first, and she hates the fact that they seem to force her to tolerate their religion. But when new Christian friends enter her life from her new school, she begins to investigate whether the belief in Christianity has good outcomes in the lives of her friends and family, or if it just draws them into becoming hypocritical and judgmental snobs. But when the drama rises and a kidnapping takes place, Bella wrestles with the possibility that she might be broken forever, unless she believes in Jesus Christ.

Summary: More of God's promises and lessons listed out and of course the regular day prayers found on the Short Daily Prayer App. And some more simple prayers from my common book of Prayers. And devotional book reviews too A book two of simple prayers for Christian Believers. I don't force anyone to believe in Jesus or God that is not how believing in Him works at all. But I encourage those of you who don't know Him yet to try to pray these prayers and He may just meet you within that prayer. As always God bless you all. _Lumna10. I did not write this book for any money. Therefore I will not mention publishing companies I never intend to meet from any of the associated original authors of book devotions I use. I am giving credited to only original authors that have given their names.
