My Thoughts

 The Forgiving Jar is book 2 in Wanda Brunstetter's  latest series The Prayer Jars. If you haven't read The Hope Jar which is first in the series its a must before you go out a grab The Forgiving Jar.

 What a great read this book was, I couldn't bring myself to put it down. Wanda does an exceptional job demonstrating how there is always room for true forgiveness between two people when you allow God into your heart, all things are possible.  

 If your looking for an uplifting book and want to be inspired look no further pick up your copy today. I was givena copy of this book for my honest review which I have given.
