Faithgirlz!: Lucy
2 total works
Prayer is a powerful thing-especially when you're out of options. Lucy is a feisty, precocious tomboy who questions everything-including God. Understandably, especially after an accident killed her mother, blinded her father, and turned her life upside down. It will take a strong but gentle housekeeper-who insists on Bible study along with homework-to show Lucy that there are many ways to become the woman God intends her to be. It seems like everybody's got it in for Lucy! Mora's gone boy-crazy for JJ and will stop at nothing to cut Lucy's friendship with him out of the picture. A land developer wants the soccer field, and the town council just might take him up on it. And a wildcat is stalking Lucy's house cats. Worst of all, she's in trouble with her dad. Where can Lucy turn when it seems like nothing's going right?
Growing up is hard when you don't have a mother-but God helps Lucy find her way. Lucy is a feisty, precocious tomboy who questions everything-including God. Understandably, especially after an accident killed her mother, blinded her father, and turned her life upside down. It will take a strong but gentle housekeeper-who insists on Bible study along with homework-to show Lucy that there are many ways to become the woman God intends her to be. Lucy's bossy, career-minded Aunt Karen thinks eleven-year-old Lucy needs a woman's influence. Enter Inez-a housekeeper with a will as strong as Lucy's-and her granddaughter Mora, a girly-girl who is Lucy's polar opposite. Will the girls ever find common ground? Inez just might have the answers when she teaches them the story of Ruth and Naomi.
