Stressed out. Burnt out. Fried. However we name it, all of us know what it feels like to deal with circumstances and worries that drag us down and wear us out. Many of us experience persistent anxiety. Peace can be hard to find. But it is in the middle of our stress and fear that God extends his unshakable peace to us. In this beautiful book that is part devotional and part Bible study, Ann Swindell shares how the biblical stories of eight women and men helped her realize that what she needed most in her own journey wasn't a stable job or healthy kids or good friends--it was God's peace. Through forty faith-stirring readings, Ann will help you: · Experience God's peace in your daily life · Respond to challenges with faith rather than fear · Find hope in God's goodness and faithfulness toward you The good news is that even if our situations don't change, we can still experience Christ's peace in our daily lives.

Download or read book Your Journey to Peace written by Rosemary McCarthy and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intertwined with Rosemary McCarthys personal journey of shifting from an angry, frustrated person blaming others for her unhappiness, to someone who now lives content with herself and in harmony with others, Your Journey to Peace brings the esoteric to the practical and maps out how to become your Best Self and feel empowered in all areas of your life. It also explains: Why we are the way we are individually and collectively; and how we got this way. How we find peace within ourselves by making peace in our relationships and all situations. That God does not allow for suffering! We create it by upholding dualistic concepts of me-and-you and us-and-them that we embraced at our beginnings and before form. The precursor to the Big Bang was the need for form to play out those dualistic concepts we chose at our beginnings: all our issues stem from those original concepts based on ideas of separation rather than unity. That understanding time makes the seven-day creation model valid. What are the extraterrestrials origins? How we can reconcile the growing evidence of our past association with the ETs and our scriptures and beliefs. Our need to embrace the Indigenous peoples connection to Gaia. That we chose to be here at this time of the Shift to bring about our personal and Gaias Ascensions.

Download or read book A Journey Towards Peace written by Tamar Deborah and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have been writing since I was 13 years old. It started for me as a means to express my thoughts, while at the same time being able to keep my thoughts to myself. For me, writing is something that must come through inspiration. It takes me to a place outside of myself. At any point in time, a thought, an idea or even a single word comes to mind and the poetry envelopes itself around it. The concept may take a minute to create, or it could take an hour or moreit all depends upon how strong the thought or the idea may be. A force so strong within me says write, and so I write. Then, the work takes on a life all its own. Twenty years ago, I looked ahead and I saw an entirely different future for me. It is truly surreal to me--because I was looking at my situation at a different in my life and I could not see beyond those circumstances. This book is intended to inspire others to trust in a power beyond the realms of what they may see at the moment because they are not looking at an accurate picture of their future. Dare to dream--to believe that all things are possible to them that believe--to believe in themselvesnot because of, but in spite of circumstances--to view different perspectives. No one knows what the future holds for them. They can only imagine. I encourage you to find that inner spirit then trust that higher power, dare to dream and believe it will come to fruition. The journey towards finding that inner peace is a long oneone that people search for throughout their lifetime. Tamar Deborah

Download or read book Getting Life written by Michael Morton and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A devastating and infuriating book, more astonishing than any legal thriller by John Grisham” (The New York Times) about a young father who spent twenty-five years in prison for a crime he did not commit…and his eventual exoneration and return to life as a free man. On August 13, 1986, just one day after his thirty-second birthday, Michael Morton went to work at his usual time. By the end of the day, his wife Christine had been savagely bludgeoned to death in the couple’s bed—and the Williamson County Sherriff’s office in Texas wasted no time in pinning her murder on Michael, despite an absolute lack of physical evidence. Michael was swiftly sentenced to life in prison for a crime he had not committed. He mourned his wife from a prison cell. He lost all contact with their son. Life, as he knew it, was over. Drawing on his recollections, court transcripts, and more than 1,000 pages of personal journals he wrote in prison, Michael recounts the hidden police reports about an unidentified van parked near his house that were never pursued; the bandana with the killer’s DNA on it, that was never introduced in court; the call from a neighboring county reporting the attempted use of his wife’s credit card, which was never followed up on; and ultimately, how he battled his way through the darkness to become a free man once again. “Even for readers who may feel practically jaded about stories of injustice in Texas—even those who followed this case closely in the press—could do themselves a favor by picking up Michael Morton’s new memoir…It is extremely well-written [and] insightful” (The Austin Chronicle). Getting Life is an extraordinary story of unfathomable tragedy, grave injustice, and the strength and courage it takes to find forgiveness.
