Publisher's summary

"The book amazed me" (Writers Digest judge)

Bringing her trademark candor, wry wit, and warmth to a life led by God, award-winning author Margaret Agard gives us a smart, funny and timeless memoir appealing to both skeptics and believers, alike.

A new marriage; two sons facing the tumultuous teen years; work as a computer consultant. And now assigned to oversee care for all the women of her church from the new young mothers to grieving widows, Margaret Agard is overwhelmed with her five page to-do list. She makes the daily decision to turn the list over to God. Her life is quickly filled with experiences both touching and quirky from hospital visits to screaming peacocks culminating in her astonishing changed relationship with God.

Filled with captivating characters, familiar to anyone involved in community, down to earth spirituality, and sparkling stories of life with Parker and the boys, Agard brings both profound insight and self-deprecating humor to the simplest of life's moments.

Each finely crafted piece illuminates the small and great events of a woman's life with strength and compassion while the whole creates a memorable experience, that lingers long after the memoir is finished.

(From the Author)

A compulsive list maker finds life without the list.

(From the Back Cover)

It began as a prayer of desperation.

It became the foundation for a life of abundant love, peace and joy.

Overwhelmed with work, family and major life changes Margaret stumbled onto the secret of Christian happiness. She shares how with God by her side she became happy driving in rush hour traffic, dealing with frauds and facing a mountain of manure.

This 18 month slice-of-life chronicles the results of the daily prayer that:

  • Changes relationships
  • Creates financial freedom
  • Brings peace during trials
  • Increases opportunities
  • Renews faltering faith
  • Deepens joy
  • Takes you from where you are to where God wants you to be

Unlike most authors, Margaret shares the down-in-the-trenches experiences that come from turning a life over to God while earning a living and caring for family and friends. Written in an engaging and personal style that brings a wry wit to a life led by God.
