I know of some close friends who are not so merry at this Christmas season. One friend lost his wife, and this is his first Christmas alone. Another has a mom that is in an assisted living facility, and has no one to come to see her.

I suppose many of you have similar stories. There are the alone, the forsaken, and the unloved trying to exist this week.

What can you do to help out in this type of situation:

  • Go to an assisted living home, even if you don’t have someone you know there, and just sit with a few of the lonely and sad people who are there. Cheer them up with your smile and conversation. That is all you have to do. You don’t have to try to make it a time of wonderful joy. Just you being there sitting with them will make their day. I know I have done this.
  • Call someone you know will be alone during the holidays, and let them know you care. Just that one gesture may be the difference for them to have a joyous holiday season.
  • Visit a neighbor you know has no one to come to see them during the holidays. Just spend a hour or two with them to cheer them up.

None of these gestures takes a lot of your time, nor are they hard to do. Just being with someone or talking to them can do wonders in a person’s life.

If you are one of the lonely and feeling sad people….

Remember:

You are not alone.

You are not forsaken.

You are not unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

There seems to be a debate about eBooks, versus hard copy. The eBooks seems to be leveling off.

To me, I like the best of both worlds. I see eBooks as another way to sell my books, and the cost is very low. I have sold many books both ways. Embrace any avenue you can find to sell your books.

Do you have dark clouds coming into your life every day? Do you ask, “Why me, and why now?” This is hard, at best, for many of us to handle.

During this holiday season we should be joyous and spreading good cheer, but the overwhelming events in our world, seems to speak against that.

Let me share some thoughts:

  • In just four more days we will be celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Through Him all tears will be wiped away, and those joyous days will be every day.
  • Through pain and sorrow we learn things and actually grow. I have been there, and as I look back I see that each and every trial I had to go through eventually made me a better person.
  • Everything that happens has a purpose and all things work for the good of those who believe.
  • be thankful for what you have. God gave all of it to you, and he will care for you in the future as well.

Yes, times are hard. Yes, things could be better, but never think that God isn’t listening. He is always there. He is just a prayer away.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

I got a call from my dentist yesterday. No, it wasn’t to set-up an appointment. It was a call to tell me they had sold out of my book, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.”

Yes, I have a free book sitting in the waiting room for the clients to look at. You sometimes have to use a free book to sell many others.  It has a card and a little note in it to check with the receptionist if they are interested in buying it. That’s it. No more promotion than that.

I have sold over ten books right from my dentist’s office.

You can do the same thing. If your dentist is not in a clinic (they are by themselves) ask if you can leave a book in their waiting room; leave two or three books with the receptionist, and wait for the money to start coming in. Be sure to have a note on the inside cover about the books available.

There are many unusual places to sell your books, and there is very little effort to do it. I will share more in my next post.

Do you sometimes feel that God isn’t listening. Do you think He doesn’t care. Have you felt God doesn’t even know who you are?

God is a very loving God. We just need to let Him show us that. We don’t need to wonder if He loves us. He created us in His own image. He didn’t even do that for the angels. If He went as far as to do that for you, don’t you think He loves you? Read the versus below and see God has made you His adopted child. He loves you and will care for you like any earthly father would for their child.

 “But when the appropriate time had come, God sent out his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we may be adopted as sons with full rights. And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, who calls “Abba! Father!  Galatians 4:4-6″

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!
