… My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. (2 Cor. 12:9)
God’s plan for Lynette’s life has been full of humor, unbelievable circumstances, heartache, triumph, and amazing provision by God. His hand on Lynette’s life is evident from the very beginning, as He placed her, as a tiny adopted baby, into a Christian home. When she was a young adult, He led her into full-time ministry with The Calvary Singers, and He walked closely by her side during many, many physical challenges. Through it all, He has been her Savior, her Rock, her Comforter, and her greatest Friend.
The Girl with the Zebra Leg, recounts just a few of Lynette’s crazy adventures. You’ll laugh and cry, but most of all, you’ll be encouraged by Lynette’s resiliency and very personal walk with God. Lynette’s life story testifies to God’s glory and grace, and displays God’s abiding love for Lynette–and for you too. Lynette’s prayer is that her story and Savior might be an antidote to your fear, your depression, and your hopelessness. But most of all, she hopes that if you don’t know the Savior, you will consider putting your trust in Him, the Lover of your soul.
Perfect love casts out fear…. 1 John 4:18
