The Desire of My Eyes Steven G Cook

On June 12, 2018, my wife, Cosie Cook, passed away after battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) for nine months. Cosie and Dr. Steve Cook were married for forty-three years. She was the Desire of His Eyes (Ezekiel 24:16). This book serves as a chronicle of their Journey from Courtship to Cancer. Cosie was an incredible woman. She loved and was loved by all that knew her. Dr. Steve Cook, her husband, serves as a missionary worldwide, and has preached in 40 countries and across the USA. The Apostle Paul wrote, "Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ" (2 Corinthians 1:3-5). It is this passage of Scripture that inspired Dr. Cook to write this book. It is his hope and prayer that it will be a help and a comfort to others that may be suffering similar pain and grief. Dr. Cook has said, "I never knew such loneliness existed before the loss of my wife." Having suffered such loss, he is now better able to be comfort to others that suffer. This is not a book that magnifies their 43 years of blissful marriage, but rather a book filled with Bible Scriptures that will be a comfort to anyone suffering grief, sadness, and sorrow from the loss of a loved one. You will feel the pain that Dr. Cook has felt as you read this chronicle of their love and their Journey from Courtship to Cancer. You will experience the sudden turn of events that constantly kept them on edge as they battled this dreadful disease. You will share their ups and downs as you read about their journey. Lastly, you will see how their faith in God proved to be the deciding factor in their journey. The God of All Grace has sustained Dr. Cook since his wife, the Desire of His Eyes, as gone to glory. The faith that Cosie and Steve shared during this journey continues to give Dr. Steve Cook the strength to continue preaching and sharing the Love of God in countries around the world and across the USA.
