Download or read book No More Faking Fine written by Esther Fleece Allen and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripture reveals a God who meets us where we are, not where we pretend to be. No More Faking Fine is your invitation to get honest with God through the life-giving language of lament. If you've ever been given empty clichés during challenging times, you know how painful it is to be misunderstood by well-meaning people. When life hurts, we often feel pressure--from others and ourselves--to keep it together, suck it up, or pray it away. But Scripture reveals a God who lovingly invites us to give honest voice to our emotions when life hits hard. For most of her life, Esther Fleece Allen believed she could bypass the painful emotions of her broken past by shutting them down altogether. She was known as an achiever and an overcomer on the fast track to success. But in silencing her pain, she robbed herself of the opportunity to be healed. Maybe you've done the same. Esther's journey into healing began when she discovered that God has given us a real-world way to deal with raw emotions and an alternative to the coping mechanisms that end up causing more pain. It's called lament--the gut-level, honest prayer that God never ignores, never silences, and never wastes. No More Faking Fine is your permission to lament, taking you on a journey down the unexpected pathway to true intimacy with God. Drawing from careful biblical study and hard-won insight, Esther reveals how to use God's own language to come closer to him as he leads us through our pain to the light on the other side, teaching you that: We are robbing ourselves of a divine mystery and a divine intimacy when we pretend to have it all together God does not expect us to be perfect; instead, he meets us where we are There is hope beyond your heartache, disappointment, and grief Like Esther, you'll soon find that when one person stops faking fine, it gives everyone else permission to do the same.

Download or read book My Thoughts Become Your Thoughts written by Tracy Menchenton and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The existence of life’s Presence within you, the Kingdom of God, was never intended to be a mystery. And Eternal life is to be experienced now in this Present moment of life’s only reality. Your life’s Conscious-driven purpose was predestined before you were ever born. It has always existed within you, ready to be revealed; you just had to come into the light of awareness of its existence. This is the Practice of Awakening Your Mind to Your True Identity, Life’s Calling, and Your Inspired Purpose: The Mind’s Renewal Is the Path to Your New Transformation You are not who you think you are .... Your mind’s false self-awareness has separated you from the Presence of life. In your separation from life’s only reality, this Present time, you have created a false self-identity or ego. This ego continues to lead you astray from life’s Presence by seeking for more beyond this Present moment, the only reality of life’s existence. Transcend your mind’s false self-awareness to the higher state of Consciousness, the awareness of your Oneness with life’s Presence. Know your true identity, your Oneness with the Author and Perfecter, the Creator of all life. The end of all suffering .... You hold the key to your inner peace, the end of your mental suffering. You are not your thoughts, the thinking and rationalizing mind, but you are the observing or witnessing Presence within. Know your mind’s right standing position, its correct alignment with Consciousness, the awareness of life’s Presence in the here and now of reality. Learn to become free from the mind’s attachment to the intellect and put an end to all your suffering. Life has a purpose for you .... Predestined before the foundation of the earth, life’s unfolding script had a unique role for you to play. You were created with a longing desire within to know your inner purpose, something much greater than you could imagine for this life. You were created with the secret of your identity and purpose hidden within you, waiting to be revealed. Life is calling you, drawing you inward to an awareness of your true self and to fulfill its destiny, and there is no greater time than now. The New Beginning Are you ready, child? To take the journey of life as I have set it out, just for you? Hold fast, for there is much to learn, much to teach you. Lend an ear to Me. I will fill you up, for wisdom only comes with reverence. Ask, and you shall receive. I give all to My children who reverence Me. Do not go outside of life’s existence, but remain in the Present with Me. I shall surely reveal to you My unfolding plans for your life’s purpose, your great destiny!

So many wedding guests asked for a copy that Mary included one in her thank-you notes.Then began the strange and heartwarming journey of Mary's poem to her mom. Friends passed it on to those they knew. A minister in her hometown couldn't recall who gave it to him, but he included the by-then "anonymously written" poem in his book about loving others. Another author picked it up from there for her compilation of heartfelt works, and Mary finally noticed her poem, now listed as "Author Unknown," in A Fourth Course of Chicken Soup for the Soul, which her husband and children gave her as a Mother's Day gift.With this new book, readers have the chance to experience When You Thought I Wasn't Looking in its entirety and from its creator.

Those little things teach love, compassion, and understanding. In other words, they're priceless. This sweet gift book brings that lesson home to the heart.

Book excerpt: USA TODAY, PUBLISHERS WEEKLY AND ECPA BESTSELLER • The internationally recognized Bible teacher and daughter of Billy Graham combines unique biblical insights and her own personal stories to show how the Holy Spirit guides us in our decisions, comforts us in pain, and stays by our side at all times, enriching our daily lives. In Jesus in Me, Anne Graham Lotz draws on her rich biblical knowledge as well as her personal journey—including her recent cancer diagnosis—to help us understand that the Holy Spirit is not a magic genie, a flame of fire, or a vague feeling. He is a Person who prays for us, guides us in our relationships and decisions, comforts us in pain, and stays by our side at all times. In this seminal teaching, she explores seven key aspects of the Holy Spirit that will revolutionize how you understand and relate to this vital third Person in the Trinity. As Anne writes, “One of my deepest, richest joys has been discovering by experience who the Holy Spirit is in every step of my life’s journey. Each name that He has been given—Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor, Counselor, Strengthener, and Standby—reveals another aspect of His beautiful character and has provoked in me a deep love for the One who is my constant Companion . . . Jesus in me.” Discover how to better love and rely on the person of the Holy Spirit—and embrace how much He loves you through His presence, power, and provision in our daily lives. Praise for Jesus in Me “With plentiful biblical references, Lotz encourages those who already rely on Jesus to step into a purpose-filled life led by the Holy’s Spirit’s guidance. Christians who desire to live a life of greater purpose to glorify God will be awed by Lotz’s impassioned exploration of the role of the Holy Spirit in her life.”—Publishers Weekly
