Through My Eyes Review How do people cope with life-changing illnesses? Eva Kleman, the author of Through My Eyes, contracted cancer that deprived her of her sight. She used this time in her life to reach out to others rather than recoil into herself. This book allows the reader to see through Eva’s faith just how much God can do and does do for us all. It will inspire you. Through My Eyes is a book that you can pick up and put down. It makes you consider and think about ordinary, everyday things from ‘human paperclips’ to roast veal and gherkins! And if you are looking for words of encouragement to give to others at times when perhaps you don’t know what to say, then this book would be ideal. There is something for every age group and every situation. Through My Eyes is easy to understand, and will connect with your heart, inspire you and make you realise that there is so much to see in life – whether visually or not. A quote from one of Eva’s writings that has helped me says: ‘The Bible contains snapshots, as it were. I sometimes call them God’s Kodak moments. Moments that suddenly appear brighter than anything else. Sometimes a trivial event in the background of a larger picture. In secret understanding God allows me to discover something unique in his world … I capture the moment in the picture. And in that moment something happens, which can only happen in an encounter between God and me. Surrender.’ I highly recommend Through My Eyes as a feel-good book – a feel-good book with God. Thank you Eva for allowing me to see God through your eyes. Deborah Condon Details Hardback: 156 pages ISBN-13: 978-952-475-688-4 Available from Salvation Army trade stores
