Mary's Diary: An Advent Journey

Owen, Emily

Owen Publishing

Facing deafness as a teenager, this is the remarkable story of Emily Owen told in a diary format for older children. Emily Owen was an energetic teenager who loved music - and life. But dreams of becoming a teacher, enjoying music and sport all crashed as she was given the shocking news that she had NF2 which had caused tumours in her brain that would lead to deafness. Emily's life would be completely different from the one she had planned. But she had a choice. Could she let go of the life she had hoped to live - and live a life wholly focused on God? Written as diary entries, children can see first-hand how Emily learnt to trust God in all her circumstances. Real, raw, honest but ultimately inspiring, Emily's story demonstrates that even though life might not work out as expected, God has a plan - and there are still everyday rainbows to be found.

A thirty day devotional look at 'Ruth's diary' with thought provoking points, prayers and questions to help explore this much-loved story in a new way. What must it have been like to be Ruth, transformed from a widow in a foreign land to become the great-grandmother of King David? Emily Owen explores these questions through Ruth's 'diary', sharing in her trials, her excitements, her challenges, fears and joys. Each chapter begins with a 'diary extract' from Ruth's life, which is then beautifully unpacked with a meditation to encourage you to reflect on how that applies today. Each meditation is encouraging yet challenging, and helpful for personal growth. A wonderful book to help readers look again at familiar Bible stories with a fresh perspective.

Emily Owen was a highly intelligent teenager who was also athletic and a skilled musician. Tragically, in her late teens she was diagnosed as suffering from Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2), Since then Emily has survived many complicated surgical procedures, been close to death, and seen the gradual erosion of all the abilities that defined her personality including the total loss of her hearing. Despite this she has a remarkable sense of humour and has coped with everything she has been through due to her strong Christian faith, her supportive family and indomitable personality. Now Emily has published her story in a moving book which describes the years of intracranial surgery that she underwent with the gradual loss of the facilities that defined her life, her hearing and her balance, and a gradual re-evaluation of her life plans.
