Download or read book There s Power in Your Pain written by Tonya Harden and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-07 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While being a Christian, can I drown in pain? Yes, you can!!! Some may say I'm saved, and everything in my life is perfect; others may say I'm saved, but hurting from past or recent family hurt, relationship hurt, church hurt, loss of a loved one, molestation, rape, etc. This book is for you if you have experienced any hurt in your life. For some Christians, life isn't always about rainbows and butterflies. Sometimes, life just sucks, and we get hurt in the process. People leave you, you experience heartbreak, someone mistreats you, and you make mistakes you can't undo. Some may say, "What do I do when I wake up in the morning with this pain in my chest? What do I do when I feel like I'm drowning and can't breathe because it hurts so badly? What do I do when I feel like the only thing I can do is stay in bed for the rest of my life because of sadness? What do I do?" This book will remind you, as a Christian, to really understand how to truly be a Romans 8:28 Christian (and we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him).

Download or read book Transforming Pain to Power written by Daniel Beaty and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain doesn’t last always Sometimes only for a night Try not to resist It hurts the more we fight Overcoming life’s difficulties is daunting. At times, it seems the burdens that we bear are too painful to overcome. They keep us from even trying to accomplish the things we want most. It seems the only way to outlast the pain is to ignore it, when, in truth, the only way to discover the unlimited potential inside of us all is to embrace the pain, face the Authentic Self at our core, and use the strength therein to triumph over any obstruction in our way. Based on his powerful, true journey from a childhood rife with poverty, incarceration, addiction and rage to the successful adult life he achieved, award-winning performer, writer, and motivational speaker Daniel Beaty presents the tools that readers need to overcome any obstacle and tap into their full capabilities. By outlining an alternative mode of thinking, especially for the modern African-American man bombarded by negative stereotypes in the media, Beaty empowers the individual and encourages readers of all backgrounds to learn from their cultural and family heritage while forgiving and letting go of the negative so that only the positive remains. Beaty’s story, supported by deeply personal advice from notable mentors such as Bill Cosby, Leontyne Price, Sydney Poitier, Ossie Davis, and Ruby Dee, serves as a strong reminder that success is ultimately possible, not in spite of struggles but as a result of lessons learned and power drawn from those lessons.
