Beschreibung
This is a serious, yet humorous, chronological account of Jim Diehl’s search for his true family, and the many turns along that path he encountered.
Growing up, there were no baby books or relatives to answer his questions about who he was. His earliest memory is growing up with his brother, Steve, on a small farm in Milton, West Virginia, in the foster care of the Lewis family. During those years, he was known as Jimmy Ying.
At the beginning of 1956, the brothers were told they were going on a visit with their “social lady,” Mrs. Morgan. On a cold and very snowy January 11th morning, they were bundled up and sent off before being told they were going to visit some very nice people.
When asked if they’d like to stay or just visit with these new nice people, the author immediately said he wanted to stay, but his brother hesitantly said, “just visit.”
Join the author as he looks back at what it was like to grow up as a ward of the state and how he finally answered that question about who he is in His Grace IS Sufficient.
“His Grace is Sufficient” is a beautiful love story of God demonstrating His enduring love, perfect timing, and deep, abiding intimacy through the life of one man. This creative expression is not just Jim’s story - it is yours. Read and remember your life story and how God will “go out of His way” to complete the circle and provide every human being a family and a place to call home.”

Since coming to South Carolina I have known Jim Diehl as a Director of Missions and passionate church musician. After reading “His Grace IS Sufficient”, I now know him as a trophy of God’s grace. As you read his story, you will shed tears…first of sadness, but then of joy. This book is a powerful reminder of the goodness and grace of God, and that He DOES take care of “the least of these.”
