Seasons of waiting can be long, especially when the hope carried close to the heart seems to be fading.
Anca Alastar knows her life is filled with blessings. HaMelech led her to her husband, Flick, brought her stepchildren into her care, and carried them safely out of a place of danger into a peaceful town among the apple orchards. For the first time in her marriage, Anca is able to rest. Moreover, she and her husband can finally complete their family in the way they have only prayed about.
Spanning over nine years, A Mother's Prayer follows Anca through seasons of waiting, faith, and unanswered questions. As she faces infertility, fragile health, the loss of promised futures, and the echoes of their past, she must cling ever tighter to HaMelech... even when His answers come slowly.
Sometimes the deepest prayers are not shouted.
Just like a mother's prayer, they are whispered, and offered even in the most fragile moments of hope.
A Mother's Prayer is a raw look at life through the lens of infertility. Readers need to be advised that, while no graphic depiction of pregnancy loss is mentioned, the fall out and emotional effects of these moments are heavily described.
