I pray that books bring you clarity of the importance of forgiveness in Jesus's name. Amen. I pray that it will release you from the terminal effect of unforgiveness. I pray that your heart and mind be cleansed from all hurts, illness, bitterness, and torment caused by unforgiveness. In Jesus's name. Amen.I pray that this book will reveal to you the importance of FORGIVING. How unforgiveness can lie dormant and rob you from the wholesomeness of life. How it can eat up your soul and cause you not to be forgiven. Never knowing the root of your depression, anxiety, anger, and unhappiness.That the misery that would be shown up in anger and rage at the given opportunity as it happened to me at the very most important day of my life--my grandson's, Samuel Michael Walker's, graduation service from high school.The miserable loneliness that I felt throughout life was because I hadn't forgiven those who had caused hurt. I was in constant fear of trusting any situation or anybody. I was always my own defender and a very difficult person to live with. I was always waiting and watching for yet more pain. I was afraid to trust. The very things that were so carefully tucked away; were the very things that were killing me softly.

In the fall of 1952, the Blackman children were playing in the yard of their home in Rockingham, North Carolina. They were completely unaware that their life as they knew it was about to come to an end. They were about to be lifted out of poverty and hunger.Their mother was too sick to ever come home again. The County Health Department had forced her into a car to be quarantined in Black Mountain, North Carolina, because of tuberculosis. Their father had already rejected them and taken his mistress and her kids to Maryland, never to return again.Soon, the children would take a trip to an orphanage home. There they would each be dropped off at different cottages, never to sleep under the same roof again.

When my son was four years old, he prayed for a baby sister with blue eyes and red hair. We adopted her; all the miracles in this book are true. From the beginning, my son has always had a special connection with God. He talks to Him. He's now a doctor when he was in med school. I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. I was waiting to have both breasts removed. My son was doing an autopsy. After he was done, he rushed into the waiting room where we were waiting. He said, "Mom, why are you here? You're supposed to be in surgery." Then he stopped. "It's probably okay because your breast cancer is all gone."I didn't believe him as usual, and he said, "Stop it."A nurse came rushing into the waiting room and asked, "Do you have your records?" I told her no, and she took us in a hurry to the main operating area. They lost all my records and had to do the mammograms all over after reading all the tests. Four doctors came in and said, "You can put your clothes on and go home. What you had two weeks ago is completely gone"I started crying and said, "My son has been fasting and praying for forty days and forty nights."I moved to Texas. Eighteen years ago, my daughter has been to the hospital to see what the sex of her new child would be and was told she must abort the baby. In the ultrasound, both legs and arms were broken. My son began praying, and before the delivery, he fasted and prayed for forty days again, and my granddaughter just turned eighteen alive and well--another miracle. Any other miracles are included in my book. God is in control, and if we truly believe, anything is possible.

When tragedy strikes, it has capacity to shake us to the core, our beliefs, our dreams, and aspirations. Loss and adversity have a way of changing us somewhat, based mainly on the choices and decisions we make while going through the turnings. On the night of November 21, 1991, a serious mischance happened in the life of a young, devoted Christian woman that changed her life forever. Would her Christian faith serve as an anchor during the storm?

The back cover shows a man kneeling, hands raised to the Lord in victory. The picture depicts a simple man who has come through great trials and storms by the grace of God alone, a man who recognizes as humbly as he understands how that if it had not been for the grace of God, he would have given up a long time ago and would have self destructed. His favorite saying is "Getting there by the grace of God."

Life is hard. People search, sometimes their whole life, to find meaning and acceptance, but where can we find meaning and acceptance? These two things come from within. God can give you love, peace, joy, meaning, acceptance, and fulfillment. Unfortunately, many people never experience God's blessings. If we obey God and his commandments, he promises to bless us. Obedience is a process and a lifestyle that few people take advantage of. Disobedience causes heartache and pain. Just read the story of Jonah. Obedience is doing God's will, God's way, in God's timing.Jed Morehouse takes us through a six-step prayer challenge that can change your life. Living life on our own is hard. We need God's help! First, we have to be honest with God. Follow these six challenges, and see what God will do in your life.

The Cross 10 is the third book in the Rest Area 10 series. While maintaining the central theme of how Christ can connect and change people's lives, it also introduces new characters that change the dynamics and expand the story line with surprising results. No character is immune from Christ's reach into their lives at the exact moment it is needed. No life is left untouched or unchanged.

John Hunter and Tom Byner are two young men from the Saline District of the Cherokee Nation during the fateful period between the United States Civil War and Oklahoma statehood. Theirs is a land and a people caught between the courts of Hanging Judge Parker and local tribal authority. In a time and place where most still carried a gun, events were occurring almost daily that were to bring about change to their people. Intent on survival, nonetheless, the blood that flows in their veins propels them down a path where they find themselves struggling to maintain the convictions and beliefs that had been passed down to them since the Trail of Tears.It is their anonymity that provides the illusion of sanctuary, but even this is shattered with the arrival of Katie Dickinson, an attractive young girl caught up in the designs of those who see the opportunities to be had at the expense of the Cherokee people. It is through her friendship with Mary Baldridge that she connects with the young men and finds in these three friends her only hope for escape. But Katie's presence places the young men on a path that directly collides with the powers that be, unscrupulous powers that see the friends as impediments to plans for control and reward.As events unfold, each must search within themselves and come face-to-face with their own core beliefs and choose whether to strengthen or weaken in the face of adversity. They are aided by the oversight of their enemies that simply do not recognize the abilities of John Hunter.As they are forced to maneuver the changing world of their people, each step must be placed with care on a path where the gate is strait and the way increasingly narrow.1

We are being challenged in some way or another, so it's time to let God awaken and challenge a hunger in us for more and more of him, I pray. I pray this will become a hunger that you have never known, a force that challenges and accelerates your faith to be activated by God so you hunger for more of his Word's plan and purpose for your life. Times of deep thinking and meditation have brought me to this place of being challenged to his voice, to hear more and more, to pursue greater things, making me a believerSpending time with God is awesome; nothing can compare to it. As I was studying and meditating in his presence, I realize it is something we wouldn't want to miss out on, for he is still calling us to have great faith in him. We should know growing in our understanding of God is a good thing; it is great to know our awesome and almighty God. We are being challenged every day of our lives to serve a true and living God. I pray you become one challenged to faith into a greater believer. Let it grow. Let God challenge you to faith.To begin to acknowledge Him as God our Creator, being challenged to faith will lead and direct us to take the time out of our busy schedules to know our God, his will and his ways.This book is a help to us to be fully aware of ourselves that we have need of our heavenly Father in all we go through in this life. We need God's help; we think we know, and we don't realize we have no idea. Most would agree that we learn about God more from difficult times than happy times. We have to see our struggles as great opportunities to learn from God.To be challenged to faith in the one we need the most--yes, we need him daily, for he is our heavenly Father.Ecclesiastes 8:1 says, "How wonderful to be wise, to analyze and interpret things. Wisdom lights up a person's face, softening its hardness."Wisdom is the ability to see life from God's perspective and then to know the best course of action to take. Most people would agree that wisdom is a valuable asset, but how can we acquire it?Proverbs 9:10 teaches the fear of the Lord (respect and honor) is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom comes from knowing and trusting God; it is not merely the way to find God. Knowing God will lead to understanding and then to sharing this knowledge with others.It is a called-out book.Challenge to FaithWill You Be Onein Jesus's NameLove All

miracle (n.) An extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs.This is a word that gets tossed around a lot. The thing is, miracles do occur and occur often, if you are willing to look for them. God never turns away from us, even when it seems like our world is falling apart. He is always right there, helping us back up to our feet.God's love and faithfulness is what gave me the strength to move forward when I awoke in an ICU and was told my husband and oldest son had been killed.Miracles are what kept me treading water when I was briefed on the very slim chances my other two children would make a full recovery. The chances of my son's mere survival were nonexistent.I was unwilling to accept anything the doctors told me. I knew in my heart that God had us and my babies would be okay. I steadied my heart, set my jaw; I prayed, and I asked others to pray.God has taken care of us every single step of our journey and continues to today.Our story is not over. We survived, we are healing, we are pushing forward, we are living.We are waiting on the next miracle.

In a perfect Christian and socialistic world, virginity is relinquished on the wedding night. Practice is not required and serves no purpose except that of (for some) personal pleasure.I (not alone) believe that this sex education should begin at home and in some school programs. After all, it is an essential education form.It has been determined that the character of protestors is to demand much more then they will settle for. With this theory in mind, parents and teachers, Christian and secular adults, should begin with absolute abstinence, to teaching 100 percent of the pros and cons associated with premarital sex. Pain, disease, mental awareness, social acceptance, pregnancy, and comprehension of what an individual can expect when pushed through the opened door. For this explanation of pushed through the open door, we must recognize that mankind has established the ground rules for those reaching puberty.

Most leaders do not want to move behind or come after. But seeing the effects that following has on effective leadership, it puts you in the willingness to want to follow. Sometimes leaders do not start out on a leadership journey expecting to follow behind. There is that assumption to always be up front. But God is saying in this book, "When you fall behind and see things from behind, you will see the effects of your leadership." Waiting first on God will help you not make hasty, destructive decisions. Hearing the conclusion of the matter and getting a full understanding can help you avoid many errors in your leadership role. This is not to say you will not make mistakes, stumble, and learn many things. But when you follow God and obey his instructions, if you err, you soon correct the problem and move on with the tenacity to keep going. Your strength and hope do not come from you but from God, and there is no failure in God. When a leader ceases to follow, it opens an area in their leadership role that blocks their view of seeing their errors, which need to be corrected.One of the definitions of follow is "to come after in time and order." This will allow you to move in the right timing. Our timing is not God's timing; therefore, we should follow his timing. Let him go first, and we follow. The picture on the cover of this book says, "Lead to Follow". Leaders need to follow the shepherd (Christ our Lord), others will follow us to an expected end, not destruction. Paul pins it best in 1 Corinthians 11:1. Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. May God keep and bless you!

You don't have to look very hard to see how different people are, especially those with disabilities or birth defects. It's much harder however to see how we are the same. This is a book on how to look past the outside appearance to find the person's true beauty within.Different but Not is the story of a village full of people who are beautiful on the outside, but sadly their insides were ugly. They needed to learn that true beauty comes from within. A young boy who is different comes into their village and changes what it means to be beautiful.

Salvation is just the first step to becoming a true member of His kingdom. If you want to be able to reap all of the Lord's great benefits and be used by Him in the kingdom of God, you must seek to grow in the love of the Lord every day. As a new believer, you must honor God in everything you do and become a living epistle of Christ. You must put your old self down completely and be willing to do anything for our Lord. God desires for us to lead a life of purpose, victory, and abundance. Inside this book is a twenty-one-day journey to help you to get started in renewing your mind toward change and spiritual development. The salvation that Jesus Christ preached must be understood in the context of the kingdom of God.

Dreams of snow when children play happily, unconcerned with worldly events. Playing, enjoying the best of times during a snow day. Normal activities stop, and time stands still for just a little while, creating memories that last a lifetime. You can feel the warmth of family and love from above.

You can be a born-again Christian on your way to heaven, but if you don't learn who Jesus is, you are not getting the best out of your investment before you get to heaven.This book is not written from my education. This book is written from my revelation.Psalm 9:10 tells us, "And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee."When you transform your mind by the word of God (Romans 12:1-2), you will learn who He is. When you learn who God is, you will understand why He came. When you learn the price that Jesus paid for your salvation, you will have a desire to live a life that is pleasing to Him. There is a promise that comes with pleasing the Lord. Proverbs 16:7 tells us, "When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him."You may not be fully surrendered to His control; however, if you want to live a life that God desires for you to live, He will change you. You can live a life that is pleasing to God and live in victory all the days of your life. Then you, too, will be able to say who Jesus really is!
