Download or read book The Gift of an Ordinary Day written by Katrina Kenison and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2009-09-07 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gift of an Ordinary Day is an intimate memoir of a family in transition, with boys becoming teenagers, careers ending and new ones opening up, and an attempt to find a deeper sense of place—and a slower pace—in a small New England town. This is a story of mid-life longings and discoveries, of lessons learned in the search for home and a new sense of purpose, and the bittersweet intensity of life with teenagers—holding on, letting go. Poised on the threshold between family life as she's always known it and her older son's departure for college, Kenison is surprised to find that the times she treasures most are the ordinary, unremarkable moments of everyday life, the very moments that she once took for granted, or rushed right through without noticing at all. The relationships, hopes, and dreams that Kenison illuminates will touch women's hearts, and her words will inspire mothers everywhere as they try to make peace with the inevitable changes in store.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Book excerpt: When Mahnaaz saw Aftaab, he said to her: When I see you I get lost in you. I feel how lucky am I, whose sweetheart is a girl like you? You seem to me like a fairy -- extremely beautiful or pari paikar, with angelic and innocent face, eyes as blue as that of very deep and a clear lake, pure like water flowing over the falls originating from the hilltops. In the garden of the world you are beauty of the garden, and all the beauty of the world is with your presence. God has created you in His own image in a majestic and artistic manner. You are a unique creation of the Creator with no parallels in the entire world. You seem to me as if you are daughter of the moon or binat e- mahtaab, who has come down to the earth to play with me The girls working in the guesthouse were Yati, Nessa, and Sundri. The most beautiful was Sundri. Someone very correctly gave her a nickname, Ghunchah, meaning the bud of a rose flower. But she was very unfortunate. Her husband died just two years after the marriage. Most of the women who visited her for condolence advised her to have patience. But she knew how difficult it was and only that one knew who had gone through it. When I saw my bride for the very first time I said to her, Zarina! If you like that our married life may be comfortable and enviable, please try to be obedient to my dear mother just like me. And also love my younger brothers and sister, and keep them happy. Chewing paan (betel leaf) and looking at Saleem Rekha said, Shehzadae! Merhaba (welcome Prince). Nargis, Bunto, Nina, Bulbul and Kasturi are since long waiting for you. The very first song, which Nargis sang while the other girls were dancing, was a very popular Punjabi Folk song which means: Oh! My sweetheart where had you spent the night? My heart was lost in your thoughts throughout the long and tiring night. Sunil proposed to construct a new Town to be named as Soergnagar (a town in paradise) to help the poor and needy to fulfill their basic needs: Rooti (bread), Kupra (clothes) aur (and) Makaan (home). And there would be no restriction, whatsoever, to shooders (untouchable). They would be treated equally and fairly as all others. After waiting for two hours and making several rounds of the Accountant Generals (A. G.) Office building in Lahore, Gul Khaan, Bacha Khaan and Shair Gul Khaan were tired. Shair Gul said, Yeh khanzir ka bachha, Bhatti kahaan chupp gia. Yeh zalil to soodh khoor Pathanoo ko bhee dugha dae gia. This son of a pig, Batti, where did he hide himself? This mean fellow succeeded in cheating even the money lender Pathaans who eat the interest earned. That borrowed money Bhatti used to spend on hiring model girls for his nights. He told me, He is doing so to take revenge from the women, because my entire life has been ruined by a woman my stepmother (Soteeli Maan).
