My Life Story
Author: Becky Lynn Black
Publisher: Energion Publications
ISBN: 1631997173
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
My Life Story by Becky Lynn Black isn't a celebrity autobiography. It's better. Becky's story is a testimony. We are promised we can overcome through the word of our testimonies (Rev. 12:11). A testimony doesn't just tell a story to satisfy curiosity. It presents a divine call. The story in this book will call you to put God first, especially in your marriage. It will call you to mission. It is, in fact, the Gospel story. God loves you, died to save you, and calls you to join Him in the ministry of reconciliation. No matter where you go or what problems you face, God will be with you. He will not remove all your troubles, but He will work through you no matter what. When Becky Lynn Black went home to glory, it was not a victory for the cancer that tried to conquer her. It was God's victory over death, shown in the life of His servant. "Becky Lynn Black was the daughter of missionary parents to Ethiopia and my wife for 37 years. Her life was a story that only God could have written. It is a powerful tale of sacrifice, struggle, hope, and ultimate victory. Her life changed my view of serving God and will certainly challenge yours." -David Alan Black, Dr. M. O. Owens Jr. Chair of New Testament Studies, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

Book Description
Reminiscing the events from many decades ago and putting them into words, structuring to reflect the chronology and nuances of human interactions, especially between parents and children who share many facets of their lives together, was the easiest part of this endeavor. The difficult part was to walk the very fine line of respecting the diversity of opinions within the family members relevant to each event or issue and to avoid being judgmental or biased.

Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Life is a journey. Long for some and short for others. Nevertheless, we select our own paths to reach our destination. In doing so, we are forced to stop at various junctions, becoming emotionally, sensationally, and spiritually involved with what we encounter. As the duration of the journey progresses, we age with time. The subconscious mind projects past images in sequences or by association, making life surreal. Like actors on stage, we perform, aware of our entrances and exits. Every performance is a prologue to what might be or what might have been.
