Highly recommend for Christian women. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 boys, a fairly new Christian, and I battle with stress and depression and anxiety. This was a life changing book for me. <br /><br />Hannah<br /><a href="http://www.krwlawyers.com/lake-charles-asbestos-lawyer.php" rel="nofollow">KRW Mesothelioma Lawyers</a>Hannah Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00650717736289178574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863365400520669739.post-8672388470523643982021-03-01T05:01:39.760-08:002021-03-01T05:01:39.760-08:00thank you!

A few days ago I experienced an internal shift from feeling voices of pressure and criticism to feeling acceptance and the energy of flow. It did feel like a little miracle to be released. Love visiting you again, Debbie.

One of my bible study groups is going through John and we were reading verses about "joy" at the end of the lesson I shared how I had always confused joy with that overzealous giddiness feeling of laughter and that I was having problem finding that anymore and wondered if I would ever laugh again . . . since then I have been coming across so many things about joy, your post today included. Finding true joy is believing deeply in His promises and knowing Him more each day. Knowing the He is always with me, knowing that He gave Himself for me, Knowing that He is preparing a place for me to be with Him one day, but also that He is always right here . . . longing for me to draw near in praise, prayer and conversation with Him throughout my day. Joy is the fact that He is mine and I am His. Joy is so much more than happy laughter! After seeing what true joy really is I was able to say, "Oh, I do have joy, it is not missing from my life . . . He is joy and He is always with me. <br />Thank you for recommending this book.<br />God bless you.<br />Connie :) Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863365400520669739.post-87976013092315682232021-02-23T17:55:30.599-08:002021-02-23T17:55:30.599-08:00Sound like a very inspirational book at just the r...Sound like a very inspirational book at just the right time.

This sounds like an interesting book and I would like to read if and how she added things after her son died.<br /><br /> I cannot imagine the pain involved in losing my son, who is 26, but to lose him to suicide! I'm not sure what I would do. A timeless reminder to pray for my son, even if everything seems to be going well.<br /><br />Love and prayers,<br /><br />SharonSharon Wilfonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17466621290140789056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863365400520669739.post-76095238267724707032021-02-22T12:38:53.589-08:002021-02-22T12:38:53.589-08:00This looks like a lovely book, Debbie.

I think that sometimes people have a hard time allowing themselves to experience joy or even happiness, but that is a big part of life. Sometimes we feel that joy is not appropriate at times, but there can be some joy in some really difficult periods of our lives. I hope you are doing OK and accepting and letting the joy surround you. Hugs, my friend. Have a good week!Joan Tavolotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11290923567339587417noreply@blogger.com
