About the Book
What would you do if you were faced with a life-threatening illness? Would you distance yourself from God or grasp His hand, cling to His promises, and develop an unwavering trust in His goodness?
In Only by God’s Grace Norma Kennett lovingly shares how choosing the latter helped her uncover the infinite, nearly unfathomable love of God while battling a debilitating tumor. Through the fight for her life and other experiences, she recounts how each event led her closer to the heart of Jesus. She also shares the Bible promises that spoke to her in her struggles and kept her strong in the faith.
Norma’s story will inspire you to view life’s inevitable, inescapable trials in a new light as she details her multiple encounters with God through amazing dreams, God’s audible voice directing and comforting her during her most vulnerable moments, and other people whom God sent to minister to her.
“The book of Revelation says that God’s people ‘overcame ... by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.’ Norma Kennett’s testimony of how God has repeatedly intervened in her life will strengthen your faith and remind you again that there is a God in heaven who is able to do the impossible in our lives. Norma’s encounters with God will encourage you to know that God still works miracles, and that faith in God and surrender to His will are enough to see a believer kept by His mighty power!”—John Bradshaw, Speaker/Director, It Is Written International

After reading this book, I realize how far away I was from Jesus. Especially when God told her that he was a Father to her when her father wasn't there. And was a husband to her when she was without a husband. So it really made me realize that He is always there for me when I need Him.

Norma's book "Only By God's Grace" brings to our conscious awareness the inescapable fact that God is always with us - in good times and in the very worst of times - working out His perfect will to accomplish His perfect plan.

I just finished reading your book "Only By God's Grace," and have been so blessed by how God continues to work in your life.
Because I know you so well, there is no doubt in my mind that each experience you shared happened exactly as you wrote. You and I have shared and prayed together many times,and I was always blessed by your "child-like" faith. You couldn't bear the thought that you might have done something that would hurt Jesus.

Expertly written, short, powerful sentences, paragraphs properly shortened. I am proud of you. Your astonishing grasp of biblical promises is the secret of your endurance and joy. Your ability to remember detail and then express it all in believably detail is amazing to me. God will continue to hear your every whisper.

My husband and I read “Only by God’s Grace” for our evening worship until we finished it. It was very inspiring to witness the strong, relentless faith and trust of the author, heartbreaking to observe her on-going suffering, then deeply encouraged and strengthened to watch the great mercies and compassion of God towards her!

"A must read" for those of us whose faith need boosting and for us living in parlous times need to know that God is still in control and takes care of His children. Reminds me of Psalm 91. God is awesome and greatly to be praised.

The reading of this biography has been a tremendous blessing and encouragement to me. In fact, it has been an inspiration to my family, close friends and church members I've been able to share this book with. Many times we face danger, temptations and discouragement and it's easy to give up. This personal testimony however, shows that a midst trials and afflictions God will not forsake us, but lead and help us through. That is powerful and exactly what I needed to hear and many others should too! I especially appreciated the Bible promises and quotes from Ellen White's writings. A very touching story how God's healing hand has protected the author's life multiple times. Praise the Lord! Maranatha!
