Download or read book Omi of the Stars written by Enrique Barrios and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only updated version of the book. It has been revised and corrected by its author in 2020.The maturity acquired by the writer over the years, plus his search for greater knowledge, has allowed him to understand in greater depth several topics that he himself had written before in this book, when he only knew the topic "Aliens" from afar, and he was guided more by youthful enthusiasm than by accuracy. Today he writes the same story as before, but from a deeper perspective and a less childish, more realistic and more accurate perspective. This means that the previous versions do not reflect the author's current clarity about the themes that the book addresses. The spirituality it presents is now easier to understand, and even the humor has grown.Omi, a young alien from a more advanced and benign world than ours, is the main character of this book. Translated into twelve languages, it has sold several million copies and continues to reach more people, languages and countries. Why is it so widely distributed?Perhaps because of the joyful words of wisdom and reflection that Omi uses to guide young and not so young people in a confused world: the problem of the climate, the great inequalities, corruption, etc., with their consequent revolts and protests. These are the effects; Omi points to the cause, which is the lack of the inner light that he comes to point out.The book takes us to visit stellar societies superior to ours, and encourages us to produce the necessary changes so that one day we will live without polluted skies and without violence, as in the evolved worlds. These changes must first be made within each one of us. The Fundamental Law of the Universe, which Omi reveals, is the way forward.Enrique Barrios is a Chilean-Venezuelan author living in Spain. He was a tireless traveler, although today he considers that he has already exhausted his quota of trips because has lived in many countries and taken a complete tour around the world.In 1984 he had an inner experience that indicated to him that universal life revolved around what he called "The Fundamental Law of the Universe", and when he saw himself with such an important concept in his hands, without having been a writer, at the age of 39 and in only eight days he wrote "Omi", a book that became an immediate bestseller.In the mouth of the smiling young man of the stars, EB tells us about his discovery."Omi" is a "Long-Seller", a "classic", a "must read", a book of which there are very few: Those that continue to be sold through the years.
Download or read book Shooting at the Stars written by John Hendrix and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shooting at the Stars is the moving story of a young British soldier on the front lines during World War I who experiences an unforgettable Christmas Eve. In a letter to his mother, he describes how, despite fierce fighting earlier from both sides, Allied and German soldiers ceased firing that evening and came together on the battlefield to celebrate the holiday. They sang carols, exchanged gifts, and even lit Christmas trees. But as the holiday came to a close, they returned to their separate trenches to await orders for the war to begin again. Award-wining creator John Hendrix wonderfully brings the story of the Christmas Truce of 1914 to life with his signature style, interweaving detailed illustrations and hand-lettered text. His telling of the story celebrates the humanity that can persist during even the darkest periods of our history.

Download or read book Fear Not written by Ami Thomson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2020-09-25 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If someone had told Ami Thomson a few years ago she’d be sharing a battle strategy of victory over fear and hope for a God-blessed future, she’d never have believed it. Ami had lived gripped by fear from earliest childhood. Fear of an angry father. Fear of an angry divine Judge. Despite a successful career, marriage, and young family, by adulthood Ami found herself in a death-trap spiral of panic attacks, grueling pain, and hopelessness. No self-help books, therapy, or anti-depressants made a difference. A message of God’s grace, mercy, and love seemed too good to be true. In desperation, Ami turned for answers to the ultimate source, God’s Word. There she discovered the healing truth that a loving heavenly Father doesn’t want His children crippled by a spirit of fear but to be more-than-conquerors through the power of God’s Holy Spirit. Fear Not! Unleash the Conqueror Within was written for every person struggling with fear, insecurity, anxiety, depression, addiction, or hopelessness. Intended as a working journal, it offers a step-by-step action plan to defeat fear and become more-than-conquerors in Jesus Christ. With personal anecdote, practical help, and biblical principles, Ami shares from her own experience how to rise up, stand firm, kick fear back into its corner, knock it right out of the ring, and keep it defeated forever.
