It's challenging to be a military wife. We wave goodbye to our husbands-who sometimes are gone for months at a time-then keep it all going for our families and homes. Others tell us we're strong, but we're not always sure they're right. Military wife Sara Horn understands. She shares wisdom gleaned from her own experiences and anecdotes, as well as from others military wives of all branches of service, to help us remember that God is in control. We can have true joy, regardless of our circumstances. Horn's reliance on Scripture and confidence in God's comfort during challenging times remind us that we don't have to be an army of one when we are God Strong. Book jacket.
