Phyllis saw the thread that the Lord had woven through her life—a thread of His faithfulness and strength to uphold her in the worst tragedy she could imagine. All of this led to His calling for her to write and speak about His compassionate love for His children. "This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." (Lamentations 3:21–23) "For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth." (Job 19:25)
