About the Book

How do you delight in a God-Who-Speaks-Promises when those promises seem as distant as the stars in the sky?

Holding onto faith when everything is falling apart is a difficult task at best. Drawing from Scripture and her own personal walk through sorrow, the author of Counting Grains of Sand leads you through a journey of discovering the Lord’s kindness, even from the middle of loss.

Infertility, adoption, hope, and loss all collide in this gentle story of how God built a family from splintered pieces and taught one woman to hold onto faith and learning to delight in the God-Who-Speaks-Promises.

Counting Grains of Sand takes a real look at faith, hope, and trust in the face of loss, heartache, and incredible joy.

What others are saying:

“Learning to give thanks in all circumstances can often feel like chasing a placating cliché, but in Natasha Metzler’s Counting Grains of Sand you enter into the story of fighting for joy in the midst of unspeakable sorrow. Metzler beautifully weaves her story through themes within the Bible, allowing the reader to grab hold of a contentment found not through comfort but through confounding difficulty.” –Tyler Braun: Pastor and Author of Why Holiness Matters

“Natasha’s words will captivate you as you watch how God’s peace and promises unfold through the pain of uncertainty. Her story is a beautiful reflection of God’s unending faithfulness.”  –Christin Slade: Author of Blog at Home Mom

“Counting Grains of Sand is riveting, raw, and real. It is a testimony to a God Who redeems pain and delights in giving us the desires of our hearts. It is a story of learning to delight in Him, even when His will doesn’t look like we thought, even when we don’t get the answer we prayed for.”–Gretchen Louise: founder of Kindred Grace.

“Natasha’s voice is always inexplicably Spirit-led. When I read her first book, I had no idea I was in for a convicting, challenging, yet genuinely touching read. When I dove into Counting Grains of Sand, I knew exactly what to expect and Natasha does not disappoint. If you’re looking for a fresh look at loss, redemption, and God’s provision, settle in with this book and prepare to be inspired.” –Rachelle Rea Cobb: Author of The Sound of Diamonds

This book is a beautiful reminder of God’s all-knowing, incredible, lavish love for us- even during the driest and darkest seasons of our lives. It offers authentic hope, without cliche, for anyone weary and dry.” — Lisa Newton

As I approached my latest birthday, and the possibility of ‘never’ begins to become more real, I’ve begun grieving my present childlessness in a whole new way. Receiving my copy of Counting Grains of Sand was like being invited to coffee with a dear new friend. She was so comforting last time we “met” that I anticipated this second meeting, and I was not disappointed! I’m so grateful for how Natasha offers honest companionship on this journey, while holding out solid comfort at the same time.” — Elisabeth Adams

Feeling crushed and battered, this encouraging book revealed what I needed most to know – the immense span of God’s kindness towards me and awareness of all the details of my heart .. like grains of sand.” — Fayelle Ewuakye

I was needing some hope and encouragement when I cracked open the pages of this book, and I wasn’t disappointed. It confirmed many truths that the Lord had been teaching me this year, and affirmed to me that I wasn’t alone in learning them.”
— Jessiqua Wittman

Counting Grains of Sand is, essentially, a book about faith: something I often think of like a mirage I can’t get a hold of. Metzler has walked a journey I have never walked, but reading her story honestly felt like a long letter a friend would write if she knew what I needed right at this moment. I needed to be encouraged to wait on God, trust His love and delight in the portion He had allotted me. Counting Grains of Sand did just that. I will definitely be buying this book to give away: we all need Metzler’s message of hope!” — Caroline Kraft
