P.U.S.H. (Pray Until Something Happens) Hannah was excited to head back home to where she spent her youth days in a peaceful countryside. The joyous reunion turned into a nightmare when a freak accident flung Hannah off the back of the tractor which landed her under the huge back wheel. She woke up trapped in a hospital bed, plagued by excruciating nightmares when she discovers that her nightmares were manifesting themselves into reality. Her world was turned upside down from the physical and psychological injuries she suffered. Her dreams were shattered when her husband’s betrayal resulted in a divorce. Instead of growing old together Hannah was confronted with the reality of selling her home that represented stability and facing financial insecurity. This was the last straw when her business doors had to close. It was like an eclipse, the darkness briefly covering her life. Her heartache and pain were unwelcome intruders. Sorrow seemed to stalk Hannah as she reflected and grappled with the perplexing questions, trying to understand where it went wrong. In spite of the injustice she was driven by a sense of purpose and prayed more fervently than ever before. Her faith and trust in God kept her determined because beyond the darkness there was light.
