Download or read book A Gift of Love written by Charles F. Stanley and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2008-07-13 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love has always been the need. Jesus has always been the answer. "The world is hurting for love," writes pastor and Bible teacher Charles Stanley. "Because God is infinite and full of compassion, He heard our cries and responded in the form of a perfect gift, Jesus." Consider this simple truth: all the wonderful attributes of God would be meaningless unless God was also a giver. He loves the world, and the evidence of that love is that he gave His Son. From this simple but profound premise, Dr. Stanley unfolds the riches of the giver and the glories of the gift. Stanley explores the many dimensions of God's generous nature, first in His character, then in the revelation of Himself through His Son, and finally in the impact of His magnificent gift. Written in a warm, daily devotional format, A Gift of Love will cause the height and depth of God's love to shine in your heart.

His wife has left him, his father is sinking into dementia, and Marcos tries not to think too hard about how he makes a living. After all, it happened so quickly. First, it was reported that an infectious virus has made all animal meat poisonous to humans. Then governments initiated the “Transition.” Now, eating human meat—“special meat”—is legal. Marcos tries to stick to numbers, consignments, processing. Then one day he’s given a gift: a live specimen of the finest quality. Though he’s aware that any form of personal contact is forbidden on pain of death, little by little he starts to treat her like a human being. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost—and what might still be saved.
