Cross Over Troubled Waters
Hope is like the stars always there, yet shining brightest in the blackest of nights. It is like the dawn, always rising anew. Hope is for everyone, and that includes you. This collection of more than twenty true stories from a ranch of rescued dreams unveils the heart of true strength and the character of genuine courage. Experience for yourself the kind of love and hope that change a person from the inside out. Because sometimes, just believing in someone is enough for them to start believing in themselves. It s the galvanizing truth that no matter how deep your pain God s love exceeds it still.
Sometimes, just believing in someone is enough for them to start believing in themselves
Without raising his eyes to look at me, in a voice barely clearing the horizon of a whisper, he said, I know you don t love me You just say that cuz you re an adult and it s kinda like your job. But I know you don t really love me.
Suffering and blessing balance on the same high wire, each giving stability and depth to the other. The one that we feel the most is ultimately the one that we give the most.
It was her eyes that gave her away. The conflict of her mortal illness versus her will raged behind them. Her body shouted, I m sick and it s getting harder and harder to do the things I love while her indomitable will shouted back, Yeah, but I m just a little kid, and little kids should get to ride horses
What a relief it is when we begin to understand that it is within our hardships that truth is elevated from our hearts to our heads.
During the darkest days I d ever known, I was introduced to the unconditional love of a little horse and a merciful God, and my life has never been the same, says author Kim Meeder. And her book proves that hope is not only for us to keep but to give.
Stirring, encouraging, and inspirational, Bridge Called Hope reminds us that hope is heaven sent for everyone, and that we, too, can make a positive difference in others lives."
-Eric Close, Actor

Kim Meeder vibrantly shares and lives an amazing story of hope and restoration. A triumph of recovery for wounded hearts

Story Behind the Book
I was moved to write Hope Rising and Bridge Called Hope because, when I needed it the most, someone shared hope with me and it saved my life. During the darkest days I d ever known, I was introduced to the unconditional love of a little horse and a merciful God, and my life has never been the same. Everything in our life is about choices. We cannot control our circumstances, but we can control how we choose to feel about them. The pain that we feel in this life is certain. What is equally certain is how we choose to feel about the pain. It can destroy us or it can define us. The choice is uniquely ours. Kim Meeder"
