Opis

Perhaps something has happened to you, the thing that "only happens to other people." Cancer, broken relationships, job loss. Or maybe there's a hurt that won't go away. Abuse, betrayal, disappointment. Are you trapped in your pain? This book cracks open a door to hope that may seem out of reach today. In this selection of true stories, Michael Branch demonstrates how everyday life can point us to the one true source of healing and hope. Whether gathered from his own struggles, others' hurts, chance encounters, or moments with silly kids, each story helps put life into heavenly perspective. The book may be read straight through or taken in daily doses. This is not a self-help book. It doesn't require you to follow (and inevitably fail at) 10 steps. It doesn't rely on positive thinking or other mental games. Instead it points you to purpose and hope. It leads you to see your life in new ways. It says, "Hurt is real" and "It's okay to cry." It also says, "There is life beyond hurt" and "Joy is not out of reach." Tears, testing, triumph. Each finds its place in our hurts. It may be your turn for tears and testing. This book's collection of stories is designed to remind you that the road leads to triumph.
