She also won nine world championship medals (four gold and five silver) making her one of the most celebrated gymnasts in US history.

Download or read book Rise and Shine written by Simon Lewis and published by Santa Monica Press. This book was released on 2010-05-01 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When I was thirty-five, my wife and I were both reported dead by the first paramedics to arrive at the scene of a seventy-five-mile-an-hour hit-and-run. My wife Marcy died instantly that day. With brain damage from a massive stroke and my body broken, I wasn’t expected to survive either.” So begins Rise and Shine, the dramatic story of Simon Lewis and his remarkable recovery from a horrific car accident. Told through the eyes of someone who has “lived through it” and successfully overcome the hurdles of the health insurance maze, Rise and Shine is a first-person account of unexpected tragedy and life-affirming courage, with lessons both medical and spiritual. Rise and Shine shows how much patients can achieve, beyond the limited horizons of insurance-based diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, to attain maximum regeneration and rebuild their lives. An inspiring story about what it means to return to life after a near-death experience, Rise and Shine is, essentially, an exploration of the nature of consciousness itself, and an impassioned tale about survival and recovery.

The story begins as it tells of a young girl that was called by God at an early age to serve Him in ministry to others. It then follows her through her formative years and on into adulthood. It holds within its pages an account of a person who has faced trials, tests, disappointments, and loss. But it also reveals the spiritual growth and the favor of God that took place in her life along the way. The journey also describes the joy that is found in relationships as well as the pain, sorrow, and hardships experienced in widowhood and through the experience of domestic violence which attempted to destroy her true identity and her eventual destiny. She shares her story of religious gender bias and prejudice that detoured her from her early calling. Nevertheless, because of her faith and confidence in God's grace, she was able to be restored into a life and calling she never thought was possible. Her journey is still being written as she now serves in local government. Perhaps some of the pages in her life will connect to some of the pages in your life.

As I glanced into her crystal-blue eyes, she captured my heart. She had a radiance that made her stand out from all the other girls. I had been praying the Lord would bring a lady into my life who would be a perfect mate. As our eyes met, I knew the Lord had answered my prayer. I just met my future wife. I later learned she was orphaned by the age of seven. A grandmother took her to Florida. One brother, just thirteen, went to Oklahoma with their oldest brother. That did not work out, and Herb was taken in by the Cook family even though he was a total stranger. A year later, Virginia was permitted to join her brother Cliff, and Lois assumed full responsibility for the two siblings. Finally, seven years later, they adopted Herb and Virginia. Never once did Virginia speak unkindly of the grandmother and everything that happened for all had been forgiven. I was not the easiest boy to date and thus, we had a rocky courtship. The Lord performed a transformation within that totally changed me. It was then she was able to tell me yes to my proposal ten months earlier. And our marriage was absolutely fantastic. Virginia knew I wanted to write about her life, and she told me there was nothing special to tell. In reality there is a lot to tell. She walked closely with the Lord for decades and her life was one of God's grace and unconditional love. That was true in every area of her life and ministry. The Cooks also demonstrated God's love as they initially welcomed Herb and then Virginia into their home and lives. 16 16 15 15

Download or read book Shine written by Star Jones Reynolds and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Star Jones Reynolds had done it all. College on scholarship, law school on loans, and life by faith. She had achieved a prestigious career as a lawyer and prosecutor, provided much-needed calm and insight while reporting the Rodney King and O. J. Simpson trials on television, and landed a spot cohosting one of America's most popular daytime television shows, The View. Then why was she feeling so down? It all began when Star took a close look at herself and her life and realized she wasn't happy with what she saw: obesity precluded her from crossing her legs, she needed an asthma inhaler, she couldn't fasten her own necklace, and, worst of all, she got too tired to shop -- a disaster because Star Jones Reynolds is a seriously committed shopper. Then she realized something else: with all her extraordinary accomplishments, none of it mattered without true love. Thinking long and hard, she finally understood that she hadn't yet met the man of her dreams because she wasn't ready for him. Star decided to make it happen. She began a personal journey to reconstitute her physical look, emotional state, and already strong spirituality. Even if she didn't find love, it would be a win-win situation because she'd emerge from the experience a healthier, happier woman -- one who could truly shine. Unless you live on another planet, you know Star succeeded in her quest and did find true love -- and it wasn't that hard at all. In Shine, she shares it all in her wise, revealing, irreverent, laugh-out-loud style. Shine is divided into three main sections, each exploring core issues of interest to women. Part One guides women toward being their most attractive physical selves using Star's personal secrets on losing weight and finding hair, fashion, and makeup chic (inexpensively). Part Two asks tough questions about emotional preparedness for a relationship and shows you how to think like lawyers, and how to get your financial and emotional houses in order. Part Three delves into a woman's spiritual life -- discover how to talk to God no matter what your religion. Spiking the book are Star's "absolutes" -- truisms that have always worked for her and continue to give her guidance -- quizzes and self-assessment exercises that will help you focus on your particular strengths and weaknesses. Everyone knows Star Jones Reynolds is a success story, a happy, rough-edges-to-emotional-and-financial-riches tale. Until you read this book, you won't know how she got there -- and how you can echo her triumphs and shine.
