Two women, centuries apart, are joined through a tattered journal as they contend with God, husbands, and even themselves . . . until they fall into the arms of the One who loves them unconditionally. Sierra Madrid’s life has just been turned upside down when she discovers the handcrafted quilt and journal of her ancestor Mary Kathryn McMurray, a young woman who was uprooted from her home only to endure harsh conditions on the Oregon Trail. Though the women are separated by time and circumstance, Sierra discovers that many of the issues they face are remarkably similar. By following Mary Kathryn’s example, Sierra learns to surrender to God’s sovereignty and unconditional love.

Summary
Overall This book is about a woman in conflict, her life falling apart, and in the moment of deepest despair she finds a journal of one of her ancestors that had made the trip from east in the Oregon Trail. Amazingly she discovers that their lives have so much in common, and her journals guide her to rely on God alone and a new found hope. I really enjoyed this book, I really think many people can identify with this lady and her conflicts. I highly recommend her.
Violence none that I recall
Language none that I recall
Sexual maybe some mentioning of hugging and kissing between husband and wife.
