Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While most his age were concerned with high school romances and the Friday night sock hops, young Ben Stark was grieving the loss of both parents and coping with the adult-sized problem of running a huge ranching operation. Facing such realities, it is no surprise that his early life is a mixture of depression, anxiety, and despair. A devoted Christian, Ben's faith is tested that a loving God would allow such turmoil in a life so dedicated. This is the story of how he coped, the people who helped him along the way, and his growth despite the many unexpected and unfortunate circumstances that clouded his life. The book is about stumbling, falling, and getting up again. In these pages, Ben shares the mindset that kept him going, and ultimately led to successes in his community and beyond. Late in life, when he least expected it, Ben discovered romance. He met and married Donna, who added dimension to his life. She was the catalyst in bringing to the surface ambitions long lost and almost forgotten.

Download or read book Love Letters to God written by and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-03-25 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love Letters is a collection of soul-born poetry that is an expression of the writer’s daily walk with the love of her life—Jesus Christ. The book renders responses to spiritual and emotional struggles and triumphs, prayers and miraculous answers, along with times of supposed distance from God and renewed fellowship and devotion. It is relatable to anyone who is familiar with the pains associated with life, and daily interactions with people who are sometimes not so kind. It keeps us reminded that there is Someone always present to help us pick up the pieces and go on, to love us, to comfort us and encourage us to be all that we can. He—Jesus—is the Lover to whom these songs are written, both the giver, and the object of utmost affection. The writer would also have us to understand that in spite of what the subtitle may suggest, this book, “A Book of Psalms...” is in no way to be seen as an attempt to substitute for THE book of Psalms. That simply cannot be. This is why seventy-five poems were written, which is exactly half of the Book of Psalms’ one hundred fifty—to suggest a desire to be “at least half the poet that David was” (said with a smile). It is written relative to the life, devotion and struggles of one who walks with God in this present day and time, and it is hopeful that the reader will discern this, and thus be enhanced in some way by it.

Book excerpt: Elizabeth Haynes' new psychological thriller is a brilliantly suspenseful and shocking story in which nothing is at it seems, but everything is at stake. Sarah Carpenter lives in an isolated farmhouse in North Yorkshire and for the first time, after the death of her husband some years ago and her children, Louis and Kitty, leaving for university, she's living alone. But she doesn't consider herself lonely. She has two dogs, a wide network of friends and the support of her best friend, Sophie. When an old acquaintance, Aiden Beck, needs somewhere to stay for a while, Sarah's cottage seems ideal; and renewing her relationship with Aiden gives her a reason to smile again. It's supposed to be temporary, but not everyone is comfortable with the arrangement: her children are wary of his motives, and Will Brewer, an old friend of her son's, seems to have taken it upon himself to check up on Sarah at every opportunity. Even Sophie has grown remote and distant. After Sophie disappears, it's clear she hasn't been entirely honest with anyone, including Will, who seems more concerned for Sarah's safety than anyone else. As the weather closes in, events take a dramatic turn and Kitty too goes missing. Suddenly Sarah finds herself in terrible danger, unsure of who she can still trust. But she isn't facing this alone; she has Aiden, and Aiden offers the protection that Sarah needs. Doesn't he?

Download or read book YOU ARE NEVER ALONE written by Marilyn Clay and published by The Regency Plume Press. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU ARE NEVER ALONE is for all spiritual seekers. Not a one of us is ever alone. We all came into this lifetime on Earth accompanied by a host of loving, understanding Spirit friends, who are with us every moment of every day and night, waiting patiently to assure us that no matter how lost and alone we feel, we are truly not alone; we are, in fact, loved, cared for, and protected forever. How marvelous to know that gentle, compassionate, loving guidance is as close as the air we breathe! We have only to listen for the voices of our Spirit friends, who want to help us remember the Real Spiritual Truth of our God-created Beings. Like many of you, I grew up in a confusing, tumultuous home filled not with loving support and encouragement, but with anger, hatred, and abuse. As a child and teenager, I believed the only way to escape was to leave home and go off on my own. I managed to put myself through college and was thrilled to begin a career in my chosen field, yet, inside, I still did not feel the way I wanted to feel. In desperation, I began to search for a way to heal the anxiety and depression I was suffering from. My path to wholeness was not easy and back then, not a great deal of help was available. Eventually, I did find answers and over the years, have evolved from the frightened lost soul I used to be . . . the scared young woman who was afraid to speak up, or even to feel my own feelings . . . to one who can relax and even assert herself when necessary. By learning how to communicate with my loving Spirit Guides and to know that my Guardian Angels are always nearby to help and protect me, fear is no longer a part of my life. I now feel confident and assured of my rightful place in this magnificent Universe that God created for each of us to enjoy! Many wonderful books on this subject have already been written. However, in my quest to uncover the truth, I found that too often they generally just tell the seeker where they "should" be in their spiritual journey and how they "should" be feeling. Because I was not yet "there" I came away feeling guilty for my failure to already be the person the author declared I should be. The Gentle Reminders in YOU ARE NEVER ALONE remind you of the Truths that, deep down in your heart, you already know. But because we have all spent many years and lifetimes wandering around in the dark, our human hearts and minds are filled with a host of unexamined beliefs, painful memories, guilt over past failures, and faded dreams for a better future. Most of the Gentle Reminders in YOU ARE NEVER ALONE were given to me by my Spirit Friends. All will gently help you recognize how your old unhealthy beliefs are no longer serving you; and how to bring them to conscious awareness to be transformed by love. These Spiritual Truths will help you as they have helped me. They will allow you to relax and enjoy a peaceful, love-filled life. No matter where you are now on your spiritual journey, these Gentle Reminders will lovingly guide and lead you along the path to your True Divine Destiny. A peaceful, joyous, life upon this Earth is right now awaiting your discovery. The Gentle Reminders in YOU ARE NEVER ALONE will truly help you. May God bless and comfort each of you as you search out the truths you seek. "This book touched me deeply. Wonderful and thoughtful. You will be glad you read it." --5 Star Review. "A great read that needs to be recognized. It serves as a self help guide to remembering who we truly are. I often turn to this book when I find myself feeling overwhelmed." --5 Star Review. YOU ARE NEVER ALONE is also available in print from major online bookstores.

Download or read book My World written by MICHAEL JEAN NYSTROM-SCHUT and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2004-05-19 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let me tell you how much fun it is to be a book writer! One of my friends recently said to me, I dont even know anyone whos ever READ a book, let alone WRITE one! I was amused. Well you know its really not so hard to write a book. You just talk about what you feel, and organize your thoughts along the way. At some point, as you stay determined to make it happen, the book comes into the world. For me, now having compiled over 30 book-length manuscripts of various topics and subject matter, I have become more and more inclined to share the way I see the world with others along the way. You might call what I like to write about as having to do with personal philosophy, or individual world view. Everyone has a way they see their world; this book is part of how I see mine. It seems that all kinds of people have something to say about what life is and is not. I am like most people, so am no exception. I have come to enjoy giving such opinions and points of view with just about anyone who will listen. I wrote this book, MY WORLD: The First 50 Years, because I wanted to be sure and document the way life appeared to be to me at the half-century mark in my personal growth and evolution. I did it in a way that enables you to read right through it, or, if you prefer, you can take it slowly, over a one-year span of time, and think about the ideas and thoughts carefully. How you read the book is entirely up to you. Ten years earlier I had written a similar book (Earth Dwelling: An Owners Manual for Life) in order to share thoughts about the meaning and purpose of life. It is amazing the difference that ten years can make! I like to think that I am growing! Gee. Could that be? I sure hope so! People from the worlds of philosophy, religion and the popular culture are anxious to share the way they see the world with others. I have a passion to do that also, and so I wrote this book in order to summarize how things in life appeared to me. I could be way off - you decide for youself. At any rate, my world is MY way of seeing life...in YOUR world, you will see it your special way and that is part of the beauty of this life. Each person is free to see it differently, and that is our basic right to do so. I like that. I actually feel so strongly about what I am saying here that I created a web site (which is called HowIseetheworld.com) to talk about and share ideas with others. Take a look at it some time. Thoughts are powerful, and have a tendency to either make you great, or even destroy you before your time. So, think good thoughts! And enjoy the book as well!
