Samantha's Diary Samantha Gets Grounded

We all face challenges in life irrespective of our age and status. The manner in which we respond to these challenges is dependent on many factors, among them our perspective of God. I wrote this book because I wanted to reach young people, and show them that even though trials come in our lives it doesn't mean that God has left us or is punishing us. Instead we should see trials as a gift from God. We should see that he is trying to strengthen our faith, and make us stronger. I also wanted to show the readers that we are human and we make mistakes and we sin, but God is a merciful and forgiving God who is waiting for you and all he wants for you to do is confess and he is ready to forgive.
