An Eden area woman has recently published a book entitled The Heart鈥檚 Journey. The author, Meredith Froese, wrote the book in hopes that it would bring healing to her own and others鈥� hearts. 鈥淕od kept giving me hearts to write on,鈥� Froese explained. She added, 鈥渋t was a healing process for myself.鈥�
She said the book is geared to the 鈥渨ounded heart that needs divine healing鈥� and explains different spiritual 鈥渉eart conditions鈥� that people suffer from. She took 15 鈥渉eart conditions鈥�, such as 鈥淭he Heart That is Numb鈥�, or 鈥淭he Heart That is Shattered鈥�, and she wrote an essay on each of them. There is a picture illustrating what each 鈥渉eart condition鈥� might look like, which were all drawn by Froese.
She started writing the book in January of 2013 and just finished it this March. She had friends and family help her in many ways, such as proofreading, typing out and scanning the illustrations and helping her send the manuscript to a publisher.
Her book is available at the Neepawa Banner and Neepawa Press Office, 243 Hamilton Street.
Froese is also working on a second book, which will focus on describing bible verses with pictures for those who are illiterate.
