<p>Posted August 24, 2006, 11:04 AM EST: 'Faye' is truly a book that I can say touched me personally. It showed me that we all have trials and tests that we go through yet it is still up to us to realize that God is almighty and in control over what happens in our lives. We will all be put to test at one point in our lives, but it is how we deal with it that makes us better. I encourage others to read this book and be richly blessed and motivated to make the best of their lives and their current situations, regardless of whats going on. Trusting in God will see us all through! This book is a must read!<br /></p>
