To our army of helpers

hundreds of people who went into action

and thousands who prayed for us in our darkest hour.

You brought hope to our hearts.

Acknowledgments

I would like to extend a heartfelt thank-you to the publishing and marketing team at Tyndale House. I remember thinking, I cant believe God wants me to write a book. I think God has a sense of humor. He delights in using us to accomplish what were incapable of because He wants to receive all the glory and praise! I am grateful for the opportunity to work with such amazing and talented editors as Kim Miller, Kathy Olson, and Bonne Steffen. Stephen Vosloo did a spectacular job during our photo shoot; one of his portraits of Jen appears on the cover.

I also want to express my appreciation to Wolgemuth and Associates, Joe Musser, Dawn Emeigh, and Stephanie Schneider, who helped make this book a reality.

Literally hundreds of people went into action when they heard about our accident. Our family refers to them fondly as our army of helpers. I was told that, thanks to e-mail, there were thousands of people all around the world praying for us within minutes of the accident. I truly believe those prayers kept us alive through the night and brought us strength in the months that followed.

For months, our army of helpers were scheduled 24/7 to bathe us, watch over our kids, feed us, clean our house, and help in more ways than we could ever imagine.

Job 25:3 says, Who is able to count [Gods] heavenly army? Thats how I feel about the army of volunteers God called together to help us on earth. While I could never mention every name without frustrating my readers or leaving someone out, heres my attempt to at least mention the groups who became our hands and feet when our bodies were broken....

Our incredible families, my childhood girlfriends, the Lynchburg General Hospital staff, the UVA Childrens Hospital ICU staff, Liberty University staff and alumni, our Thomas Road Baptist Church family, my Mountain Blend Bible study girls, out-of-state-friends who traveled to help us, neighbors, Andys basketball team, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and Liberty Christian Academys extended family. We are especially grateful for the local volunteer rescue workers and firemen on the scene of the accident, the special education school teachers from Jefferson Forest High School, the staff and therapists at Kluge Childrens Rehabilitation Center, and the nurses who volunteered to help us once we were home.

Finally, to my husband (who is more like Jesus than anyone else I know), to my daughter (who praises God and bows her desires to His plan every day), and to my son (who is an amazing, selfless servant leader). I am so proud of who each of you is becoming. In the early days of the tragedy, I thought it would have been easier if we had all just gone to heaven. But I truly cherish each moment we have together here on earth to live for the Lord and glorify God with our lives.

FOREWORD
BEFORE YOU BEGIN...

MY LIFE IS ON DISPLAY. Whether its the child studying my wheelchair, the couple in the store smiling sympathetically, or the waiter eyeing me as I use my bent spoon to eat slippery spaghetti, Im aware that people are watching. Some watch out of pity, some out of admiration. But all watch with unspoken questions.
