"With sweat dripping down my face, I gripped the white Kleenex and decided to take one more minute. When I opened my mouth to answer his question, life as I once knew it would never be the same. "Amber, how did you get here?" He asked me again. "I don't know," I said. "Because the last thing I remember is leaving the guys room and waking up in a hospital."
In her debut book, Hupomone, Amber shares her story of God's faithfulness through adversity, hardship, and broken relationships. She shares how dealing with her pain in an unhealthy way almost cost her her life. But a failed attempt at suicide put her before a counselor and after that, her voyage of healing and further becoming came to be. She speaks from a place of having been and uses her story to challenge readers to yield to their Faith and embrace the good and indifferent parts of themselves so they too can heal and become. Amber knows that while we are shaped by our own individual journey's, we too get to decide how we transform and embrace our becoming!
Hupomone says, I don't understand why this is happening to me but I know that life isn't meant to kill me, but rather build me, and if I can just hold on and go through this storm, I just might learn everything I need for the person I'm becoming.
