We throw God's promises away more often than we realize. When anxiety takes over, we discard peace. When betrayal wounds us, we guard against love. When exhaustion sets in, we postpone rest. We set aside what we need most because holding on feels too hard, trusting feels too risky, or waiting feels too long.
But God's promises don't disappear when we let them go. They circle back.
In The Boomerang Effect, Venita S. Welcome shares the profound truth she discovered during her "Year of Choosing Life"—a season marked by professional betrayal, family disappointment, and recovery from a brain injury. Rather than being destroyed by the convergence of loss, she learned to stand still with open hands and receive what God kept returning to her: peace that regulates both soul and body, presence that reveals itself in ordinary moments, purpose that reshapes rather than retires, and love that circles back even after deep wounds.
Through honest reflection, biblical insight, and hard-won wisdom, Venita shows that the promises we think we've lost—peace, presence, purpose, covering, provision, joy, rest, and love—are still circling, waiting for us to stop running long enough to let them land.
Some things are designed to return. God's faithfulness is one of them.
