Worth Every Tear

Most parents have heard of the prodigal son, but few expect their precious child - the one who wraps himself around their hearts and them around his little finger - might one day make them doubt themselves at every turn. This book is for any parent who has ever gazed into a child's eyes and fallen in love . . . who has poured heart and soul into that child, that he might have the best in life. It is a book for parents who have stared into their own tortured eyes in the mirror and asked, "Why?" "In a day when 'expert' advice about parenting abounds, Cheri Hardaway's Worth Every Tear is a gem. It's an honest story of Christian parents who try hard and feel failure. Yet God leads them back, so beautifully, to an understanding that He is as sovereign in the lives of their children as He is in their own. Worth Every Tear will bring tears to your own eyes, as it encourages parents who struggle with doubt and disappointment." -KAREN DEIKUN, fellow parent and contributing author to FaithWriters anthologies Cheri Hardaway is a contributing author to several FaithWriters anthologies, as well as to Women of Passions, a collection of true stories and inspirational writings. She has also had her work published on-line in several different venues. Once a court reporter, she put aside her career to be a stay-at-home mom, a role she found to be infinitely challenging and remarkably rewarding. Her journey as a woman . . . as a wife . . . and as a parent has forever etched the hope and love of God into her heart, and it is her desire to share that hope and love through the pages of Worth Every Tear Forever and for Always.
