Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are so many things that happen to us throughout our lifetime. Things that we have no control over. Things that we don't plan for. In this book I pull back the curtain and reveal all the messy details of my past. Things that would make people cringe at the thought of having to live through. The death of a loved one, a car accident, a divorce, etc. We don't plan for these types of events to happen, but they can happen to anyone. And when they do, they can often leave us wandering around lost in darkness. It's painful, overwhelming, and unsettling. But I have learned that even during those times of darkness there are slivers of light that streak across the sky like lightning. Their presence is inconceivable and breathtakingly beautiful all at once. Moments of Grace. Moments where God whispers, "Even here, lost to darkness, there is still something beautiful to behold." I grew up in an unconventional family, fought through toxic relationships, and suffered the agony of realizing my son would no longer be here with me. Yet, throughout those very dark moments of my past, I've had God flicker magnificent specs of grace all throughout my life. Even when I didn't see it so clearly, He was working things out in the background. I don't know where you're at in life or which chapter your story is on, but my hope and prayer is that sharing my messy life details might bring you peace and hope. If you're walking around lost to darkness, my hope is that this book may leave you enlightened by grace.
Download or read book Dark Clouds Deep Mercy written by Mark Vroegop and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lament is how you live between the poles of a hard life and trusting God’s goodness. Lament is how we bring our sorrow to God—but it is a neglected dimension of the Christian life for many Christians today. We need to recover the practice of honest spiritual struggle that gives us permission to vocalize our pain and wrestle with our sorrow. Lament avoids trite answers and quick solutions, progressively moving us toward deeper worship and trust. Exploring how the Bible—through the psalms of lament and the book of Lamentations—gives voice to our pain, this book invites us to grieve, struggle, and tap into the rich reservoir of grace and mercy God offers in the darkest moments of our lives.

Book excerpt: Following the success of the New York Times bestseller Sidney Sheldon's Mistress of the Game, this sweeping tale of love and betrayal, vengeance and redemption, will leave you racing to its shocking, triumphant end What happens when a woman who has everything loses everything? And when a woman who has nothing realizes she has nothing to lose? Blessed with the face of an angel and the guileless, trusting nature of a child, Grace Brookstein is the prized wife of the king of Wall Street, Lenny Brookstein. A billionaire many times over, with estates around the world, a fleet of yachts, and a life that is the stuff of fantasies, the revered financial wizard made his fortune tending the nest eggs of ordinary people—the elderly, blue-collar workers, small charities, and working families struggling to make a better life for themselves and their children. The embodiment of America itself—ambitious, hardworking, generous, and warmhearted—Lenny is a fixture of the business pages and the society columns, where he and Grace are celebrated for their philanthropic contributions and their lavish annual fund-raising ball. Despite the stock market's terrifying collapse, the Brooksteins' glamorous lifestyle of Palm Beach polo tournaments and G5 jets remains untouched—until the day Lenny goes sailing from their Nantucket beach estate and never comes home. When his abandoned yacht is found far out at sea, Grace is devastated. Lenny was her world. She has no idea that his disappearance is just the beginning of a dark, terrifying nightmare of murder, lies, greed, and betrayal that will shatter her life and destroy everything she has ever known. . . . Before she can begin to grieve, the shocking news breaks that the $75 billion invested in Quorum, Lenny's hedge fund, is gone—and everyone believes that Grace has stolen the money. Overnight, the delicate beauty who was once the toast of moneyed society has become a reviled modern-day Marie Antoinette, alone and power-less to stop her infamous fall. Grace is certain someone is framing her, and she'll do whatever it takes to prove it, even if it means taking the law into her own hands. Surrounded by enemies, with no one to turn to, Grace must learn to rely on herself—a bold, dangerous journey that will transform her in ways she never thought possible and lead her to a startling new life. Filled with the passion, glamour, twists, and driving suspense that made Sidney Sheldon a bestselling legend, Sidney Sheldon's After the Darkness is an entertaining thrill ride that continues the grand tradition set by the master himself.

Book excerpt: Born into poverty and violence, Lora's early life was one of extreme vulnerability. She was prostituted for the first time at the age of nine and suffered unspeakable treatment from those who should have protected her. The impact of this early trauma led to her institutionalization soon after she started college, an incarceration she would not have survived but for a courageous nurse who fought for her release. Fifty years later, after a long career as a successful mental health professional, and recognized as leading educator and sought-after public speaker, Lora revisited the grounds of the Illinois state mental hospital where she was once kept in inhumane, degrading, and life-threatening circumstances. This profound and compelling memoir traces her life as a survivor of child abuse, sex trafficking, illegal pharmacological drug research, and institutional abuse. Having experienced such horrifying and traumatic events, how did she survive? And to what purpose? Seeking the resolution to these unanswered questions, Lora's experiences illuminate and validate the power of love and the strength of the indomitable human spirit that lives within each one of us. This is her story.

We know the gritty part of life will come, but along with it, we get to choose to believe that the grace will show up, too. And as long as we look for it, we don't have to face our lives with the same fear we used to. We feel steadier and more powerful in the face of whatever challenge we confront. One of the most effective ways in history to enhance that level of steadiness, understanding, and trust is the ability to share our stories of grit and grace with the people in our lives; to give them strength and tools to arm themselves for their next unknown struggle. This author's alliance that we have created within Grit & Grace is a community of women who know, love and respect each other. It is our intention to invite women to connect with any of the authors you feel led to. Consider this book an open door to create more conversation, share stories, and expand our collective wisdom. We've each witnessed, first hand, the extraordinary impact women have made when they intentionally come together for a powerful purpose.

Download or read book Grace Over Darkness written by Lawanna Price and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grace over Darkness began with a vision that was shown to me years ago. I began to write this book because there is so much evil that appears to overrule God's grace. Evil has become good as well as good becoming evil. Grace over Darkness is meant to help many people, regardless of age. I feel if you can read, then you will understand. Hate has flooded the hearts of many, and it appears that there are few role models for the millennium generation. Families have now become divided with murders, gangs, and so much more. While writing this book, I am able to relate to all the things that I write. I pray and hope that you will allow Jesus to open your spiritual eyes and know that change can happen. You can be delivered and set free of whatever bondage you are in. Grace over Darkness stands for "GOD." It doesn't matter how much darkness you are currently in while you still have breath coming from your nostrils you still have time to make a change and join me to stand up for the Lord and His kingdom and stand for what is right. There is no need to be ashamed or held down to your past. I wrote this book because Grace over Darkness will always outshine the darkness!
