"Lord let your love pour through me." It was a prayer that Maddy had prayed many times over the past years, but it still brought tears to her eyes as she thought of the magnitude of what she asked.
As a single mother, Maddy Walker's life has been anything but easy, yet despite her pain and loss, she has committed her life to loving and serving others. Throughout the story, Maddy's faith is stretched as God teaches her how to love, enabling her to touch the lives of many people in her community. When Maddy discovers that she is facing some serious health issues, she is tempted to withdraw, uncertain she has anything left to give. Her only prayer is to live long enough to see her daughter married and to know that Dani will be taken care of. But God is not finished with Maddy.
When Isobelle Davis moves to town, God prompts Maddy to befriend her. Thrown into the midst of unwelcome change, Isobelle is struggling with feelings of anger and discontentment. Yet God uses what Isobelle views as a negative circumstance to provide an answer to Maddy's prayer. In the process, Isobelle's attitude is transformed and she gains new perspective as she is able to see how God's hand was orchestrating it all.
