Stealth Bombers refers to those situations that come into your life, blow it up, and leave you fighting to put the pieces back together again. It also insinuates that if there has been a war zone in your life, there must also be a time for healing, rebuilding, and growth. Healing, rebuilding, and growth start with trust and wisdom--the wisdom to know how to find healing, the wisdom to know how to start rebuilding on a solid foundation, and the wisdom to recognize your personal growth. All these tools are already inside you. You just need to apply your wisdom and trust to activate them. It's just like soldiers being called into active duty. I pray that my wartime journal can help you activate all your strategic war weapons needed to finally take down your stealth bombers.
