Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real life applications for seeking God on mending the broken, wounded and troubled heart. Volume 1 of a set of books that will guide you into a deeper relationship with God. In so many ways my life had become broken. For years I just existed, accepting brokenness as God's best for me. It took God to show me it was His desire and His Will for me to be made whole. For things to be mended in my life, I first had to acknowledge it was broken. God gathered the pieces that mattered most, cemented them together, he added bridge pieces where needed and braces to support the weak areas. This is my testimony as to the healing and delivering power of God and the truths learned along the way. Everyone has some aspect of their life that needs to be healed. It is not us who does the healing, but the awesome power of God. Through us allowing him to transform our hearts and minds, he is able to do all that need to be done to restore every facet of our lives. You will find in the end, the pieces of your life that were once broken and tossed out to sea, have slowly washed ashore and have been seamlessly mended back together. *This book was inspired by a message preached by Bishop O. DeShae Cuthrell

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She was raised to keep family secrets. Although it was not a direct command, she knew it was an indirect expectation. She knew what happened in the house, and their lives stayed there, and no one outside could know. Her family was the best to the outside world, but they who lived in the house knew differently. That cycle continued until Trina San was grown and raising her own family.She experienced many challenges in my life, and at times, wanted to quit on herself. Her earliest memory of witnessing domestic violence between her parents shattered her childhood innocence, and those broken pieces stayed broken throughout most of her life. From learning of her mom's diagnosis as being mentally unstable to the teasing about her weight in school to the attempted rape, the promiscuity, and teen pregnancy; to the failed men, the failed marriage, and the lack of self-worth - there was never an end in sight to mending her broken pieces.Trina's knees should have been bloody because she often cried out to God to stop her pain. She wanted her life to be easy, but it wasn't for so many years. The infidelities, lies, fear, doubts, insecurities, and divorce kept shattering the already broken pieces. She finally realized that through all those troublesome times, God was with her even when she did not know it. An incredible story of restoration, Author Trina San's story, Mending My Broken Pieces, will have you sitting on the edge of your seat from the very first page wondering; will the cycle of brokenness ever end?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When my father and mother forsake me, then the Lord will take care of me. Psalm 27:10(NIV) Redeeming the Broken Pieces is Gods story. It is the story of His relentless pursuit for one whose childhood had left her lost, confused, and broken. It is the story of Gods irresistible love, which overcame her shame and self-loathing. It is the story of faith in the sovereignty of God, which can defeat the deepest fears. It is the story of Gods desire for an intimate relationship with His children despite their sins, failures, weaknesses, and broken pasts. It is the story of the hope God offers to all whose life experiences have left them feeling abandoned of hope, lonely, or insignificant. It is the story of His loving involvement, His interventions, and His miraculous staging of events to reveal Himself and His great love. And it is the evidence that we will find Him when we seek Him with all our hearts (Jeremiah 29:13).

Download or read book All Who Are Weary written by Emmy Kegler and published by Broadleaf Books. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an age uniquely attentive to the problem of mental illness. More than half of us will be diagnosed with a mental illness or disorder at some point in our lifetime. It has been easy, for centuries, to relegate persistent emotional and mental struggles entirely to the realm of a failed personal work ethic ("Just don't worry so much!"), not enough faith ("Just pray harder!"), or, in recent years, a chemical imbalance in our brains ("Just take this pill!"). Yet, for those of us who live with mental illness, none of these suggestions provides the quick relief it promises, and the continued struggle takes its toll on our already burdened hearts and minds. In All Who Are Weary, Emmy Kegler joins the reader on the long walk of reflection, understanding, and compassion, calling followers of Jesus back to ancient practices of lament, vulnerability, honesty, community, and hope. This book is not a map to a cure, nor a perfectly restorative prayer. Written with a wide community in mind--patients, but also parents and partners, coworkers and friends, pastors and therapists, and the whole church--All Who Are Weary points to the embodied grace known in Jesus, trusting in the promise of a lighter load for all.
