In 2003 while on a trip to the Ukraine, a beautiful woman approached Desiderata Lessard and said that Jesus told her in a dream to give her the ring she was wearing-and that Desiderata was to wear it as a reminder of who she belonged to: Jesus the Bridegroom. Shocked and amazed, Desiderata, whose heart was not right with God at that time, did not fully grasp the message and symbolism behind the ring. That moment marked the beginning of a divine pursuit-a love story between a wandering heart and a relentless God. The ring, both in the parable and in her life, became a symbol of grace-restoring identity, authority, and belonging. In a story of being found, forgiven, and forever changed, Desiderata reveals a God who does not wait at a distance, but meets us in our brokenness and clothes us in His righteousness. Included is a Bible study, leader's guide, and a thirty-day devotional tailored for small groups or women's ministries, Bible study circles, personal devotion, and healing journeys. The Proposal: The Bridegroom's Return is a heartfelt invitation to spend time with Jesus as a believer shares her inspiring story of grace, forgiveness, and of being found again.
