    About this ebook

    Do you often wonder if you have the faith it takes to meet your daily needs? Do you long for someone to understand the difficulties in your life? Have you ever questioned, “Why me?” Have you wondered if God does hear or care about your circumstances? Do you feel like you are spiritually in a rut and no longer growing? You are not alone in this life’s struggles. Except the Lord Build the House (A Labor of Faith) is a journey through an ordinary life of a believer as difficult circumstances challenge beliefs and faith in God, requiring extraordinary faith. Employing a somewhat humorous glimpse into life’s daily struggles, follow the story of what it takes to build a strong everyday faith in the Creator of the universe. Join the author as she builds a house, both literally and spiritually, that will honor God. Through the joys and pitfalls of constructing a home, raising children, dealing with financial stress, and health issues, as well as ministry, God shows Himself powerful to this young family. You may even find glimpses of your life paralleled in this short novel. Know that Jehovah Nissi (the Lord My Banner) has you in His thoughts and has a perfect plan for your life.
