Book Description
Through my trials and tribulations, God gave me my identity. I hindered my walk and relationship with God by leaning on my own understanding. Although, as a child, the pain I endured was out of my control, as an adult, the majority was based on the choices I made and the signs I willingly ignored for decades. I blamed others for my lack of love. I was miscomprehending, seeking love from individuals that only comes from God, the Creator. It was my iniquity; it caused the separation between God and me, which hindered my blessings from him. It was also God's grace that helped with the brokenness that crippled and tormented me throughout my life. He rescued me by transforming my circumstances into the center blocks I needed to climb out of the hole I was buried in. My foolishness caused me to make lifelong decisions based on temporary issues. He should have been my ultimate choice. When I was tested, my afflictions bent and twisted the vessels attached to my heart, but God didn't allow me to flatline. He was the guiding force I needed when I thought I was too broken to be repaired. He rebuilt and molded me to be used for his glory. God's love, through my tests and trials, matured and strengthened me. The things sent to destroy my peace were no competition to the mind-regulating God I serve! This book was written in inspiration to my God, Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ. He deserves all the praise and honor, and without Him, it wouldn't be me. The blueprint and directions of God's Word are the recipes to all salvation. Above all, I pray that you, too, will understand the importance of obedience and the relationship God desires us to have as we're reconciled with Him.

More Christ, More Me
Author: Eunice Lee
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725299569
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
Sometimes, the beliefs about God we take for granted need to be left behind. As a young adult, a conflict with her parents forced Eunice Lee to confront and choose between two incompatible beliefs. On the one hand, obedience to God had always been synonymous with obedience to her parents. But on the other, God's authority was supreme, and now she felt God guiding her to act contrary to her parents' wishes. This collision left Eunice confused, depressed, and questioning what she knew about God. She fell into toxic, exhausting cycles while serving in the church, unable to understand why doing everything "right" left her depleted and guilt-ridden. Where was the abundant life God had promised? Little did she know how much her paradigm for faithful Christian living came from influences inconsistent with the voice of God--even within the church! Slowly, eventually, God led Eunice toward a more robust theology. She deconstructed faulty old narratives and built new ones that propelled her toward a healthier self, more balanced relationships, and a freeing faith--one more closely aligned with God's intentions. Eunice offers her story because she believes that God wants this for you too.

Letter to My Partner: Words of love and perspectives on marriage
Author: Felix Cheong
Publisher: Marshall Cavendish International Asia Pte Ltd
ISBN: 981500994X
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
Inspiring insights on what is often unsaid In the last volume of our Letter series, we invited 18 contributors to write to their partners. These heartfelt words are at once a celebration of romance and that first flush of love. Perhaps what needs to be said, things to be thankful for, but they’ve never had the chance to do so. Perhaps hurts they had inflicted over time on their partners, but never made amends for; such matters left unresolved eventually become a thorn in the relationship. These private words, publicly uttered, reflect on how marriage is not always the happily-ever-after movies portray it, but a coming-to-terms with differences and distances, trauma and pain. Contributors include: Jon Gresham, Donna Tang, Hamish Brown, Ning Cai, Marc Nair, Baskaran Narayanan, Nuraliah Norasid, Anisa Hassan, Tara Dhar Hasnain, Laila Jaey, Shirlene Noordin, Md Sharif Uddin, Hernie Mamat, Fann Sim, Shirley Kwan, Amy Chia, Paul Rozario-Falcone, Adib Jalal

Piranesi
Author: Susanna Clarke
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1635577802
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
New York Times Bestseller Winner of the Women's Prize for Fiction World Fantasy Awards Finalist The instant New York Times bestselling novel from the author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, an intoxicating, hypnotic book set in a dreamlike alternative reality. Piranesi's house is no ordinary building: its rooms are infinite, its corridors endless, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues, each one different from all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned; waves thunder up staircases, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is not afraid; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house. There is one other person in the house-a man called The Other, who visits Piranesi twice a week and asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Piranesi explores, evidence emerges of another person, and a terrible truth begins to unravel, revealing a world beyond the one Piranesi has always known. For readers of Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane and fans of Madeline Miller's Circe, Piranesi introduces an astonishing new world, an infinite labyrinth, full of startling images and surreal beauty, haunted by the tides and the clouds.

On Identity
Author: Stan Grant
Publisher: Hachette Australia
ISBN: 0733644244
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
Why does identity demand a choice between black and white? Tribalism, nationalism and sectarianism are dividing the world into us and them. Are we hard wired for hate? Stan Grant argues that it is time to leave identity behind and to embrace cosmopolitanism. On Identity is a meditation on hope and community. 'Love is always the answer, it is said. Not if you are trying from somewhere in the Aboriginal domain to answer the cruel question, "Are you black or white?" Mapping family ties or finding a sense of self should be about love, but in the end, it is too often about politics. You must read this book if you have wondered why we make the choices we do.'
