Life is beautiful, but sometimes, ugly things happen. Consumed more by the ugliness forced upon them, Joy, Mercy, Moses, Grace, Faith, and Patience find themselves hoping for life's beautiful moments again.

During their times of struggle, they are judged by outsiders who do not know the story behind their pain. However, there is one who does not judge, but she finds it easier to cry with Joy, hate but forgive Mercy, root for Moses, hurt with Grace, understand Faith, and forgive Patience. But most of all, she recognizes the beauty God creates when He turns their bad into their breakthrough.

Each of these beautiful souls struggle with a variety of real-life circumstances told in a fictional account. These eight short stories may seem a bit harsh, insensitive, and painful, but look beyond the ugliness they must endure to gain their personal closure.
