Download or read book Radical Gratitude written by PETER MAIDEN and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Christians we should be the most grateful people alive. After all, doesn't the Bible encourage thankfulness and condemn grumbling? Peter Maiden traces the theme of thanksgiving in Scripture, and shows how we can genuinely live counter-cultural lives even in an age of rampant entitlement. With a pastoral heart, he explains how gratitude is the key to joyful, consistent Christian living, discipleship and mission involvement. He focuses on: · how we can develop the habit of thanksgiving · the benefits of gratitude · how we can be grateful, even in hard times Each chapter unpacks biblical truth and grounds it with practical application and personal illustrations. A series of short Bible study questions and reflections (mostly on the Psalms) conclude the chapters. As he was writing this book, poignantly and to his great shock, the author learned that he was suffering from incurable cancer. Far from derailing his message, this unwelcome news energised his efforts as he poured out his vision on the page with his now-limited resources. This is authenticity at its best. This book will be the author's last.

Download or read book With My Hand in His written by Heather Tuttle and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-09-22 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I was experiencing my first semesters of college, the professors would hand out a syllabus outlining what would be expected of me to accomplish in class throughout that semester. As I read through each one, my heart would pound, and my hands would sweat as I felt my inadequacy in meeting the requirements for the class. I saw that I clearly lacked the knowledge, experience, and skills to be successful, and it made me want to turn and run from the classroom. However, with time, I learned that by the time each assignment was due, I had been given what I needed in order to successfully meet those requirements, no matter the difficulty. I believe Heavenly Father has a plan for each of us, a syllabus of sorts. Part of his plan includes facing unimaginable trials, things we would exclaim we could never do, never endure. It is with and through these challenges that if we allow, God grows and strengthens us, giving us power to endure and making us more than we thought we could be. Each challenge acts as a springboard, which moves us to another level of ability in forgiveness, patience, faith, empathy, gratitude, humility, prayer, and so many more attributes and skills. This book contains my stories of trial, faith, and miracles in my son Jonah's fight to live and heal after a life-threatening traumatic brain injury, which left him in a coma. It also contains those earlier experiences of my life that the Lord used to build my abilities to endure, strengthen my relationship with Him, and teach me how He moves and communicates with me in my life. Whoever said God doesn't give us anything we can't handle was so very wrong! We are given many things we couldn't possibly endure without our Heavenly Father walking beside us, guiding us, and strengthening us to bear those things we couldn't possibly imagine we could. These stories are of my very profound and tender walk with the Lord with my hand in His.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I decided to stop my education with a bachelor’s degree, Prof. Tanuku said, “These are not problems at all. You will be in real trouble if you stop your education now.” He agreed to pay the expenses to complete my post-graduation. We need hooks to hold when life hits us harder. I held on to his advice, completed the MSc and have been working since 2005. One evening in August 2010, I was walking home and thinking about how to end my life. Then, I remembered my dad’s caution: “Do not make Srinivas Sir think twice when he wants to help another student in the future as he did to you today.” So, I decided to face my failures and become successful. In March 2019, my dad’s words questioned all the success I had been thinking about. As a result, I lost all my emotional hooks and was vulnerable. Name it to tame it – a fundamental in emotional coaching. Instead, I chose gratitude to find my pillars to stand firmly and victorious again. The book presents the reviewed events from the earliest memories of my life to date while practising 100 days of gratitude. In the beginning, it seemed complicated. Now, 100 days are not sufficient to thank people in my life. If you are feeling low, lost and lonely, this book will help you find your emotional support within and allows you to stay strong.
