Kate Merrick confronted the crippling grief that life may bring when her five-year-old little girl was diagnosed with cancer. Three . 5 many years of suffering followed, accompanied by fervent prayer, hospital stays, emotional agony, and teeth-grinding fear. And in the long run, her baby girl was gone. How was Kate to believe again, to desire again? To learn, she turned to stories in the Bible of real women who handled pain and survived. How did Sarah, after 25 years of achingly empty arms, learn in the long run to laugh without bitterness? How did Bathsheba, defiled by the king who then possessed her husband killed, come to walk in durability and dignity, to smile without concern with the future? In And Still She Laughs, Merrick creates poignantly and transparently about finding happiness in sorrow and shows how exactly we - similar to the ordinary women seen in the Bible - can rise above unbearable circumstances and live totally. In the center of whatever hardships we face, we can smile, cry, and come away full - laughing without dread and eagerly looking for what's to come.
