Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the way home from a vacation, JoAn kept hearing what she thought was a song running through her head. Eventually, she realized it was a message. She wrote it down on a scrap of paper and later typed it, wondering why that message, which was a poem, had come to her. Following an auto accident and her descent into an abyss of pain and critical illness, she realized the poem was a gift to encourage her on the most difficult journey of her life. That critical illness led to the study of the scriptures on healing and an intensive search for the healing ministry of Jesus. Her book takes the reader on that journey as she prayed and hoped for the healing Jesus offered in his earthly ministry. Her hope is to encourage and empower the seeker to trust in the God of creation on their own journey, for God has not left us defenseless but has equipped us for the journey no matter where that journey may lead.

Download or read book Luck written by Sahil Thaker and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-10-13 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luck can be defined as any external force, event or circumstances over which an individual has no control yet it affects you (positively or negatively). Luck, fate and destiny are more or less the same thing. Sometimes luck can show tremendous generosity and sometimes it can be extremely cruel. It can also come in a variety of forms. Some of its forms are clearly visible while many are not. The power of luck can often be way bigger than things such as hard work, talent, intelligence, money, technology and even the government. This book presents real world events supported by compelling evidence to show the invisible yet the extremely powerful hand of luck. As you read this book you will see how luck can affect outcomes of Mongol wars from 12th century to crashes of modern high-tech commercial aircraft. Good luck has been responsible for preventing accidental detonation of American nuclear bombs and saving the lives of Soviet cosmonauts from guaranteed death. Luck plays a vital role in rise and fall of countries, empires, corporations and men in ways which are often complicated and not fully understood. At a personal level too, luck can play a big and somewhat hidden role in determining the socio-economic type of family a person is born into, getting compatible marriage partner and having good children. During critical situations luck can either save your life or get you killed. Extremely good luck can even make a person extremely wealthy without doing anything at all.

Download or read book Decolonial Aesthetics II written by Patrick Oloko and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-27 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features writing by 17 authors from Germany and from African and Latin American countries on highly diverse aesthetic phenomena as seen from their own different points of view. The texts in this volume all deal with the imperative of ‘decolonization’: they try to highlight aesthetic strategies for the (re)discovery of unthematized, misappropriated, transcultural and even transcontinental histories and memories and aesthetic practices that are absent from or too little perceived within national consciousnesses. Novels, poems and musical performances from the East African region are analysed as intertwined histories of the Indian Ocean and its different languages. Artworks of the Black Atlantic and perceptions of Africa are discussed from, for example, Brazilian perspectives. Within the German context, decolonisation strategies in exhibition practices in ethnological or art museums developed by Nigerian artists are evaluated; new terms such as ‘dividuation’ are proposed to describe these contemporary composite-cultural entanglements, and so on. A stimulating, wide-ranging and heterogeneous portrait of contemporary interwoven world cultures!
