    “Why is this happening to me?”  
    Maybe that’s a question you’ve asked yourself. If you have, you are not alone. 
    I’ve faced many battles in my life. I have survived eight heart operations, four of which were open-heart surgeries. I have nearly died on the operating table three times, and I was repeatedly told I would never physically excel...and yet, after much blood, sweat, tears, and prayer, I fulfilled an unimaginable childhood dream! The fact that I’m still alive and well and have achieved what I was told would be impossible is a journey I believe needs to be shared. My story is one of faith, healing, and, above all, hope. 
    Danny Covey lives in Embrun, Ontario, Canada, with his fantabulous wife, Carly, and their three children – Grant, Layla, and Carter. Danny is a creative renaissance man who fills his time as a graphic designer, illustrator, marketer, art instructor, and amateur video producer. dannycovey.com

But that is precisely what the Bible teaches.”  It’s easy to become focused on this world and all the struggles and activities that fill our lives. But one of the keys to the Christian life is to have our hearts and minds centered on the right place―heaven.  This short book captures how fixing our eyes on heaven will transform our Christian experience here on earth, bringing assurance, hope and purpose.
