This book is based on a true story about a Christian female medic who served during Operation Iraqi Freedom. The author begins her story with humble beginnings. She emigrated from Mexico with her family to the US. Maria, learned to speak and read English on her own because during that time, she wasnt afforded English as second language in the public school system.

Her fate is to experience several adversities; and in the midst of her circumstances, she walks with God. During her enrollment to Bible college, she runs away from her prophetic calling to join the US Army, her lifelong dream. During her deployment to Iraq, she runs into her calling and completes a mission that God had prepared her for.
