I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. Went to the Oregon coast, and had dinner. Sat by a huge window and was able to see the sun set while I enjoyed my dinner. Doesn’t get much better than that.

We all know that we don’t always have special days. Some days seem like eternity. They have several storms come through to ruin your day. I know you have been there. I certainly have. You turn down the wrong street and then are late to work. You forgot you have steaks on the BBQ and now you have black  squares of nothing. The dog bites the neighbor, and they are suing.

I am sure you have many other stories to share. What does this do to people? I know what it does! It causes anxiety, fear, depression, self-doubt, low self-esteem, and even hopelessness.

You don’t have to let any of these afflictions overcome you. 

You know that you have a heavenly Father who will be there to hold your hand through all the storms. He doesn’t stop them, He is just there to help calm them.

I have written a book called, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World,” that speaks to all of these afflictions and more. It has chapters on persistence, prayer, and perseverance. It covers ways to cope, and how to be strong during the trials of life.

Right now there is a big sale going on for the book. In the retail stores it prices is $19.99, but on this site it is only $15.99. The shipping has been cut in half as well. A total savings of over $7.00.

Never, ever, give up.

You Have no Equal. You are One of a Kind.

What does it mean to be unique? Well, Websters Dictionary says:

“1. Existing as the only one of a kind. 2. Having no equal; unparalleled.”

Does that fit you? Do you feel unique? Maybe you don’t. Maybe you feel like the world is pulling you down like a huge magnate, and you have no meaning; no purpose in life.

Time to put a stop to that, my friend!

God made you and then through away the mold. You are  one of a kind. You are placed on this earth for a purpose.

I didn’t always believe that myself. When I retired from teaching, I didn’t have a clear road ahead of me. I wondered, “What now?” I didn’t feel very unique at all. As a matter of fact on March 31st, 2001, I was sitting in my Explorer trying to decide if I wanted to check out of this hotel called earth. God got in the Explorer with me and held my hand. He showed me I was still unique, and had a purpose  to follow from God.

That purpose was writing my book, “Signs of Hope: ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.” God had me write this book to reach out to those who may be at the same spot I was in my Explorer. I relate them them, and share words of hope, and survival.

There have been many people who have bought this book, who have called, emailed, or told me n person, that this book was written just for them and it gave them the tools to face the daily battle of life.

Never, ever give up!

Prayer is a Powerful Thing, That We Often Take for Granted

Thanks to those who have signed up for the RSS feed for this site. Over 185 have done so and there are more each day. If you haven’t already signed up, please do it today.

_____________________________________________________________

I  have had a fabulous day, (so far.) I looked out my window this morning and an ugly “no trespassing,” sign was gone that was peeking over my back fence.

I told you a week or so ago, about my mistake in assuming my back neighbors needed help weeding their yard. They had some health issues, and didn’t have time to weed. I went there and did some weeding for them. Well, you would have thought I had attacked them with  a cannon or something. The very next day the signs lined my fence.

I had assumed they needed help, and they were telling me with the signs, “don’t tread on our property.”

I gave them a copy of my book, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World,” and placed an apology note inside it.

This morning the signs were gone.  God is so good.

__________________________________________________________

The second reason I am so happy today is that I got an answer to prayer about two hours ago. I had been praying constantly for a close friend to not only be healed, but that God would help him with the battle he was having with the pain pills, and addiction.

I can’t say yet that God has healed him from his illness, but I can say that he has won (for now) the battle with the pain killers. He emailed me a couple hours ago and reassured me he was OK in that department.

____________________________________________________________

Two different things that I have been praying about, and God answered them both. Prayer can be a powerful thing. We often take it for granted. We should know that God is always listening, and expect a answer. He may not always answer it the way we expect, but He will answer.

___________________________________________________________

The are stories in my book, “Signs of Hope! Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World,” That talk about prayer. I have decided that starting tomorrow, I will be placing excerpts directly from the book on my posts here. So start looking for them daily.

The book reaches out to those who suffer from anxiety, fear, self-doubt, depression, addictions, hopelessness, etc.

There is a special sale going on right now on this site. The books sells for $19.99 in the retail stores, and you can order it right here for only $15.99, and a cut in half price shipping as well. A total savings of over $6.00.

All you do is go up to the top of this page and click on “Bookstore.” f you also want to see some great endorsements, click on “endorsements,” at the top as well.
