If you've ever felt like "only you" are experiencing certain feelings or that " it must be me" feeling when you've thought about every possible ending to a situation but no one else sees things the way you do, especially your ex, this book assures you that it's NOT you and that you're not by yourself. It may not seem like much now but OMG there were times that I second guessed myself and had doubts about things or actions but after reading this book I felt such a relief!! Not only are these words written on a page but they are words and thoughts and feelings that has God's scripture associated with them. God's words that provides points of reference that drives the words home to your heart. One of the points that I took away from this book, and there were many points, but the one major thing is GOD LOVES SINGLE MOMS and he is right there with us ALWAYS!!!!4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. insightful book that brings so many feelings upBy busymomI was blessed with the chance to read the first two chapters of thus book already.

Not a single mom, but I married OneBy J. B. GoadIm not a single mombut I married one! And Im a pastor of a single parent ministry at a large church. So I am very thankful a book like this has been published. Pam has lived the roller coaster ride herself and knows first-hand how God can take the ups and downs, twists and turns and through His Word, His Son and His Spirit can calm your stomach, allowing you to take a deep breath and learn to trust instead of fear.Pam gives great insight of her own story, but also she captures nuggets from other single moms helping everyone realize they are not alone and dont have to feel isolated. But beyond her story and the stories of other single momsPam brings bible stories that help make Gods truth and Gods hope practical for every single mom out there. The heavenly becomes the practical. In fact Pam asks this question in Chapter 2, How can you funnel the Milky Way God down into your fears, so you have a tangible piece of His power, something sufficient for breaking the visible strongholds of your nagging uncertainties? And Pam doesnt just ask the question, she provides a down to earth answer you can wrap your hands around.Have you had a fear of the unknown? This book is for you. Have you had feeling you cant handle anything else? This book is for you. Have you wondered why God has let this happen to you? This book is for you. Have you strayed off the path of what you knew to be right in the past? This book is for you.This book will encourage you, comfort you, challenge you and give you great hope in the midst of the rollercoaster of your life and all the emotions you face as a single mom.It would make a great gift for mothers day if you know a single mom!
