Twenty-two-year-old Eiko has emerged from a difficult season of physical, emotional, and spiritual trials with a stronger spirit and deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. With a positive attitude and a loving support group, Eiko contemplates her future, living and working in Tokyo. One day, alone in a beautiful park, Eiko recalls the story of the bamboo plant. Even with no visible sign of growth for five years, a bamboo seed needs to be watered faithfully because unseen growth is taking place underground. A strong root system is forming to provide the foundation for the rapid growth that will follow, making the bamboo plant difficult to destroy. Bamboo can reach its full height and diameter in the first season. Branches and leaves form through additional seasons, as bamboo forests mature and flourish. As the sun shines on her face, Eiko hears the Lord whisper to her, "Eiko, you are like a bamboo plant. You will mature quickly if you continue to follow Me, and I will use you to bless others." Eiko bows her head and weeps. Bamboo Green, the third book in the Sky Blue Trilogy, follows Eiko's family, friends, and acquaintances, as she shares His love in Japan and beyond.
