When There is H.O.P.E: Healing Overcomes Painful Events (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781954486171)

Most people find themselves questioning their purpose in life and their place in this world. They ask themselves questions like:

• What is my purpose?

• What does it all mean?

• How do I discover God for myself?

If this is you, then you're not alone. In today's complex and challenging world, this book gives lessons to comfort and encourage through the characters of the Word of God.

"We may, like the Shunammite woman, reason that if we want nothing, we cannot suffer from its lack. If we have nothing, we cannot be hurt by its loss. However, such a life is empty. God invites us to live in hope and expectation rather than in hopelessness. While it is true that living in hope may bring us an unexpected pain and that every gain brings with it the possibility of loss, the God who guards and guides us is gracious indeed. In opening our lives to whatever the future may be, whatever pain we know will be more than balanced by His joy.
