him, Him, and hymn: A Women's Guide to Pain, Blame, and Recovery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798822912908)

Who do you blame for your pain?

Is it yourself, him or the thems in your life, or maybe even Him (God)? If you are like me, then probably all the above!

When we are in pain, we often don't know which way to turn. This book shares a personal story of the confusion felt during pain, the struggle with who to blame, and the rocky road to recovery. If you can relate, don't worry, you will be allowed to wallow in the anger, sorrow, and doubt for a bit before being shown how to move on and hopefully providing a little comic relief in the process. Though stemming from a story of heartbreak and divorce, this is much more about learning to have a healthy relationship with yourself and God. Through the use of Bible stories, connections are made to women's everyday lives including marriage, friendship, and family. Bible verses and the lyrics to some of my favorite hymns are used to encourage us, lift us up, and teach us of the amazing grace and healing power of God. Questions are posed and journaling pages are provided as a way for the reader to reflect on their lives and relationships, as well as to aid in deepening their understanding of the word of God and strengthening their relationship with Him.
