Priceless in troubled times.
Rating:
5 / 5
My brother-in-law gave me this book during an especially hard time in my life and it was a Godsend. I loved it so much that I bought a paperback one for work. As we all know, work can be a really grueling time when you're heart is hurting. I'm back today to buy some more of these for the people I care about. Buy this book. It saved my broken heart.
A Good Book
Rating:
5 / 5
This Christian classic has helped many people focus their thoughts in the right way while going through challenging circumstances. It is filled with truths from the Bible and quotes from myriad sources. Consider, for example, this quote from George Mueller, "Be assured, if you walk with Him and expect help from Him, He will never fail you." A similar quote from C. G. Trumbull, who wrote of Dr. John Douglas Adam that, "I learned from him that what he counted his greatest spiritual asset was his unvarying consciousness of the actual presence of Jesus."She writes much about character development and overcoming obstacles. Perserverance is a theme of this book. She reminds us "Power is developed by resistance." A quote from Ruskin tells us, "Not without design does God write the music of our live." This review has not done justice to this book. No review could. You have to buy the book and read it to gain the full benefit. I recommend you do so.
Comfort for Hard Times
Rating:
5 / 5
I was given this book while undergoing extensive chemotherapy for stage four cancer and found it to be a wonderful resource for anyone going through difficult times. It is full of comfort and hope, while never minimizing the difficulties of sustaining faith in the face of human calamities. I now buy it four or five copies at a time to give to other Christians who are facing hard times of any sort. Highly recommended.
