I Couldn’t Love You More
By Jason Ingram and Matt Hammitt
This is a beautiful illustrated hardback picture book for
your little one or even just for you! The message is simple. Jesus is always with you and Jesus loves you
more than even your parents can. It expresses the complete love of the parent
for the child. The illustrations in this book are just gorgeous. I would like to purchase another copy of this
book just so I can remove some of the pages and frame them for my wall.
This book was inspired by one of the author’s child’s
diagnosis with a heart defect. One of
the pages especially touched my heart.
It says, ”You are mine for a moment but you are His Forever His.” I lost
my middle daughter minutes after she was born to the birth defects caused by
anencephaly. After carrying her for nine months and giving birth to her, she
was literally only mine for a moment, but I was comforted by the belief that
she went immediately from my arms into the arms of Jesus.
Also, being a foster parent who is hoping to adopt, it is
always gut wrenching when a child that has been in my care is placed with a
family member and leaves our home. It is comforting to know that no matter
where that child goes, even though I can’t be with them anymore, Jesus is
always with them.
This would be a lovely book to give to departing foster
children, to your own child, or to a new grandchild. This book was provided to
me by Tyndale publishers for my review. They have also given me a coupon for
another copy so I can share this book with one of my blog followers. If you
would like a chance to own a copy of this book Please leave a comment telling me who in your life you would like to ensure
knows that Jesus loves them more than anyone on earth. I will randomly
choose a comment on Monday morning July 2,2012.
