Download or read book Waiting on God The Path of Experiencing God s Power and Glory written by Hsiu-Hui Liu and published by 財團法人台北市基督教士林錫安堂. This book was released on 2024-04-15 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waiting on God is not waiting for God to come. God lives within us. Waiting on God is looking up to God and drawing close to Him. Waiting on God is not just a temporary emotion, and just spending a short period of time quietly before God. Waiting on God is a lifelong practice. Are you seeking spiritual renewal? Do you long for heavenly fulfillment that is far beyond your wildest imagination? Spend time waiting on God, forget about everything else, sink deeply into the ocean of the Lord’s love, and allow yourself to disappear into the glorious presence of God. 等候神不是等神來,神就住在我們裡面,等候神就是仰望神、親近神。 等候神不是一時興起的情緒,花一小段時間安靜在神面前而已;等候神是一生的操練。 您在尋求屬靈的更新嗎?您是否渴望獲得遠超過您最大想像的屬天滿足?本書將教導讀者如何花時間等候神,深深地沉入主愛的海洋,讓自己消失在神榮耀的同在中。

Book The Art of Waiting

Download or read book The Art of Waiting written by Belle Boggs and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant exploration of the natural, medical, psychological, and political facets of fertility When Belle Boggs's "The Art of Waiting" was published in Orion in 2012, it went viral, leading to republication in Harper's Magazine, an interview on NPR's The Diane Rehm Show, and a spot at the intersection of "highbrow" and "brilliant" in New York magazine's "Approval Matrix." In that heartbreaking essay, Boggs eloquently recounts her realization that she might never be able to conceive. She searches the apparently fertile world around her--the emergence of thirteen-year cicadas, the birth of eaglets near her rural home, and an unusual gorilla pregnancy at a local zoo--for signs that she is not alone. Boggs also explores other aspects of fertility and infertility: the way longing for a child plays out in the classic Coen brothers film Raising Arizona; the depiction of childlessness in literature, from Macbeth to Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?; the financial and legal complications that accompany alternative means of family making; the private and public expressions of iconic writers grappling with motherhood and fertility. She reports, with great empathy, complex stories of couples who adopted domestically and from overseas, LGBT couples considering assisted reproduction and surrogacy, and women and men reflecting on childless or child-free lives. In The Art of Waiting, Boggs deftly distills her time of waiting into an expansive contemplation of fertility, choice, and the many possible roads to making a life and making a family.

  • Author : Hiroshi Motomura
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2007-09-17
  • ISBN : 0199887438
  • Pages : 265 pages

Download or read book Americans in Waiting written by Hiroshi Motomura and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although America is unquestionably a nation of immigrants, its immigration policies have inspired more questions than consensus on who should be admitted and what the path to citizenship should be. In Americans in Waiting, Hiroshi Motomura looks to a forgotten part of our past to show how, for over 150 years, immigration was assumed to be a transition to citizenship, with immigrants essentially being treated as future citizens--Americans in waiting. Challenging current conceptions, the author deftly uncovers how this view, once so central to law and policy, has all but vanished. Motomura explains how America could create a more unified society by recovering this lost history and by giving immigrants more, but at the same time asking more of them. A timely, panoramic chronicle of immigration and citizenship in the United States, Americans in Waiting offers new ideas and a fresh perspective on current debates.

Book Why Are We Waiting

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nicholas Stern
  • Publisher : MIT Press
  • Release : 2015-04-17
  • ISBN : 0262029189
  • Pages : 443 pages

Download or read book Why Are We Waiting written by Nicholas Stern and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An urgent case for climate change action that forcefully sets out, in economic, ethical, and political terms, the dangers of delay and the benefits of action. The risks of climate change are potentially immense. The benefits of taking action are also clear: we can see that economic development, reduced emissions, and creative adaptation go hand in hand. A committed and strong low-carbon transition could trigger a new wave of economic and technological transformation and investment, a new era of global and sustainable prosperity. Why, then, are we waiting? In this book, Nicholas Stern explains why, notwithstanding the great attractions of a new path, it has been so difficult to tackle climate change effectively. He makes a compelling case for climate action now and sets out the forms that action should take. Stern argues that the risks and costs of climate change are worse than estimated in the landmark Stern Review in 2006—and far worse than implied by standard economic models. He reminds us that we have a choice. We can rely on past technologies, methods, and institutions—or we can embrace change, innovation, and international collaboration. The first might bring us some short-term growth but would lead eventually to chaos, conflict, and destruction. The second could bring about better lives for all and growth that is sustainable over the long term, and help win the battle against worldwide poverty. The science warns of the dangers of neglect; the economics and technology show what we can do and the great benefits that will follow; an examination of the ethics points strongly to a moral imperative for action. Why are we waiting?

Download or read book Following the Path written by Sister Joan Chittister and published by Image. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is meant to give someone in the process of making a life decision at any age—in early adulthood, at the point of middle-age change and later, when we find ourselves at the crossroads without a name—some ideas against which to pit their own minds, their own circumstances. Its purpose, as they wrestle with the process of trying to find and follow their own special call at this new stage of life, is to both provoke thinking and to clarify it. —Joan Chittister In our modern and mobile society, the range of answers to the questions “What am I supposed to do with my life?” and “How do I know when I’ve found my purpose?” can seem endless and overwhelming. Following the Path by Sister Joan brings the insights of her years of teaching and contemplation to bear on this issue, providing readers with a new way forward. Through her examination of spiritual calling and gifts, change and discernment, she leads readers home to the place where, finally, we know we fit, where we are the fullest of ourselves and a gift to the world, a timely and much needed message that many will be happy to hear.

Book excerpt: This “profoundly moving novel” follows the life of an Italian soldier from Venice to Russia and back in “a gripping, richly evocative” epic of WWII (Alex Preston). Russia, 1943. Aldo Gardini, a conscripted soldier in Mussolini’s army, has been taken prisoner. In the brutal Russian POW camp, he is consumed with a desire for vengeance—not against the Russian guards, but against his father’s murderer back home. But then he meets a girl from Leningrad through the barbed wire. When Katerina sees the starving prisoner, she reaches her hand through the wire to hand him a crust of bread. It is an unexpected kindness that Aldo will never forget. The memory of Katrina keeps Aldo alive on his long journey home. But back in Venice, Aldo is divided between his love for the girl who saved his life, his unfulfilled desire to seek justice for his father. Reaching from pre-war Venice and Leningrad through the horrors of the Second World War and beyond, The Art of Waiting is a sweeping narrative of love and loss, brutality and hope for redemption.

Book Afterlife Knowledge Guidebook

Download or read book Afterlife Knowledge Guidebook written by Bruce Moen and published by Hampton Roads Publishing. This book was released on 2005-05-20 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A handbook of astral projection, with tools and practices to explore eternity by communicating with those who have died. Where will you go when you die? What if someone offered you a safe, reliable method for exploring for the truth about the afterlife on your own? The Afterlife Knowledge Guidebook is just such an opportunity. Bruce Moen is a seasoned afterlife explorer. He insists that despite our beliefs to the contrary, discovering the truth about our afterlife through communication with the deceased is really quite easy. Trained as an engineer, Moen has created a systematic yet simple set of concepts, techniques, and exercises that people around the world have successfully used to gather their own firsthand evidence about the afterlife through contact and communication with the deceased. Moen’s system follows this basic premise: If you can find a way to communicate with a person known to be deceased, and gather information from this person that you can have no way of knowing except by this contact, and if this information can be verified to be true, accurate, and real, then you have gathered evidence that this person continues to exist beyond death. If you continue gathering such evidence, the weight of it will lead you to the truth. You no longer need to take anyone else’s word for the truth about our afterlife. The Afterlife Knowledge Guidebook gives you the tools to discover the truth for yourself. Imagine how your life will change when you know beyond all doubt that you are an eternal being, a being who never dies.
