Download or read book How I Survived written by Consuelo Bradford-Jackson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not your average prayer book. Most prayer books focus on or deal with issues that are visible and external to the person praying, like the leaves or fruit on a tree. This author believes that most of our prayers have the effect of shaking the fruit or leaves off, only to see them grow again at a later date. The book's entire thrust is to eliminate the unseen causes or roots in order to permanently impact our Christian walk. The book is dedicated to Bible based prayers that "remind God" of His promises to us, as directed in Isaiah 43:25-26. It is intended to be used as a guide for developing prayers and confessions that address the issues and circumstances that affect the reader's life. The author suggests that you ignore what does not apply to your personal walk and add that which does,all with the Holy Spirit's guidance Ask Him! You are also encouraged to base your prayers on what God has shown you about the issues and circumstances that currently are confronting you. Reading the scriptures provided along with those He has given to you personally before you pray, will shrink your doubt and unbelief while it strengthens your faith.
Download or read book Post Traumatic Survival written by Gwynyth Overland and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some refugees who survive wars recover and thrive; others do not. This study sets out to discover what successful survivors of the Khmer Rouge regime found instrumental for both their survival and their mental health. The aim is to contribute to the understanding of resilience, here understood as the ability to recover from misfortune or change, in order to contribute to the psychosocial rehabilitation of survivors of war crimes and other traumatic events – to discover how war-refugees may be best assisted in processes of recovery and normalisation. The resilience found here was based largely on informants’ cultural and religious resources. Psychosocial guidelines for accessing clients’ backgrounds are available, but health and social workers often fail to access the cultural explanatory models used by survivors in building personal and group resilience. Proposals from the project are incorporated in a cultural resilience interview scheme for the use of health and social workers wishing to conduct resilience work with war survivors.
