"And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'"  Matthew 25:40. ESVIt is when we are willing to get outside ourselves and do for others that we are able to overcome the pain & grief in our own lives.  Nate Saylor was a famous football player whose game-losing fumble had knocked his team out of the playoffs for the Super Bowl.  Other things weren't going well for him publicity-wise either and he wasn't trying to correct the public's view.  His agent pretty much forced his hand to work with Moments for Miracles as damage control.Nate still had not overcome his grief at losing his little brother to an unknown illness years before.  Now there was one little boy dying from leukemia who idolized Nate and his wish was to meet him.  When Nate conceeded to the visit it became so much more than he had anticipated.  Little Zac and his mom, Shayna, both had faith God could and would answer their prayers and their faith soon drew Nate back to the faith he had put aside.As the story progresses Nate becomes more & more involved with Zac & his mom and God brings unexpected blessings to everyone involved.  As we look below the surface we find God's way is the best way.  This is a good love story with a strong faith message.I received this book in exchange for a review and found it even better than I had anticipated.
