I have been a fan of Anne Wilson since I first heard the song "My Jesus". But I never realized the story behind the song, until I read her book "My Jesus- From Heartache to Hope". Anne Wilson has lived through some really tough times, and she has been able to get through it all, because of Jesus! Her story is inspiring, heartbreaking and uplifting all in one. She has dealt with the tragic loss of her brother at a young age, and still managed to keep her faith and give God all the glory in the process. This was such a great book, and I would encourage anyone to get themselves a copy and dive in. In this life, there is no guarantee for tomorrow. We will all experience loss and grief at one time or another. And I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has dealt with loss and grief. If you haven't dealt with that yet, I would still recommend that you read this, because there will indeed come a time when you will need an encouraging, faith filled testimony to get you through the hard times. In this book, we are reminded that God will NEVER leave us alone to deal with our heartache on our own. He is always there, and we will get through it on His strength. He will take our tragedy and turn it around for our good and make it beautiful!
About the Author:
In the bluegrass fields of Kentucky, Anne Wilson and her siblings, Jacob and Elizabeth, grew up in the security and love of their family—and Jesus. Then when Jacob died in a car accident, Anne was thrust into a painful journey of grief and soul-wrestling that led to God calling her to create songs that glorified Him. Her family's Christian faith sustained them through the tragic loss of Jacob when he was only twenty-three years old. She is passionate about writing and singing songs that draw others to Jesus. Anne’s debut single, “My Jesus,” became the #1 Christian song of 2021 and won the Breakout Single of the Year at the 2022 K-LOVE Fan Awards, where Anne also won Female Artist of the Year.
