Life Is Beautiful: How a Lost Girl Became a True, Confident Child of God, Johnson Sarah M.

Life is Beautiful: How a Lost Girl Became a True, Confident Child of God takes you on a full journey of trauma, loss, and finally resilience. While on a missions trip in Guatemala, a small Cessna Caravans engine blows while carrying fourteen passengers. Unfortunately, the Cessna crashes in a remote village, leaving eleven of the fourteen passengers dead. One passenger, Sarah, shares her story in Life is Beautiful, about the deaths of her father and brother; her mothers extreme physical and emotional injuries, and Sarahs self-discovery to accept this new life.

Life is Beautiful, however, is more than a story about an airplane crash. Life is Beautiful shares the personal struggles of Sarahs fathers drug use, his recovery, and redemption to be a better person. He gives back by doing missions work in Africa, takes in Sarahs aunt dying of uterine cancer, and eventually leads their family to the mountains of Guatemala. Sarah also discusses her struggles with alcohol use and depression; where she eventually hits rock bottom. It is not until she starts seeking God through prayer, books, and therapy, where she starts to turn her life around.

Life is Beautiful is not only a unique story, but it shows the strength of Gods Will. When all hope is lost, she never gives up on God. This story is a true testimony of Gods love for His people, and when one seeks a spiritual journey and connection with God; He gives back in love, forgiveness, and happiness.
