Broken Man Rebuilt by God


Book Description

We are all born into love, but when and where does one actually learn how to properly love in life without finding themselves lost in what life's obstacles are at each given moment? This is a tale of a man who was involved in many different aspects of love, never having the chance to properly find it in the rarest of its essence the right way how God intended it to be shared. Many detours were taken down a road often traveled by like-minded lost individuals searching for love in all the wrong places, eventually finding that love in its most unique sense is found in an ongoing relationship with Christ first, and anything after that with his blessing will find you. Love is not forced, and it is not physical; it does not hurt, nor does it have a face. Love is love, and when you assume you have it before you allow yourself to make any long-term decisions, make sure you know which love it is you are in. This journal is a reminder that life gives back to you what you give to it, and it is not always fair in the game we call love.




Not Yet Married


Book Description

Life Is Never Mainly About Love and Marriage. So Learn to Live and Date for More. Many of you grew up assuming that marriage would meet all of your needs and unlock God's purposes for you. But God has far more planned for you than your future marriage. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. He will likely write a love story for you different than the one you would write for yourself, but that's because he loves you and knows how to write a better story. This book was written to help you find real hope, happiness, and purpose in your not-yet-married life.




Unsinkable Faith


Book Description

For many people, remaining optimistic and feeling positive about themselves and their lives is a constant battle—especially when circumstances are difficult and life is hard. For others, negativity is something that only sneaks up from time to time, yet still wreaks havoc in their hearts. Regardless of the root causes, once pessimistic thoughts permeate our minds, our feelings and emotions begin to control us instead of us controlling them. Eventually it doesn’t seem possible to stay positive, happy, and full of joy, and negative thought patterns shake our faith, causing us to sink emotionally, mentally, and spiritually over time. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Despite what storms roll in, hearts anchored in God don’t sink. When we change the way we think, we can change the way we feel and live, even if our circumstances remain the same. Intentionally embracing the opportunity to experience a transformed heart and a renewed mind opens the door for a changed life, because a positive mind will always lead to a more positive life. In Unsinkable Faith, author and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker Tracie Miles offers hope for women who struggle with negativity. Each chapter explores Tracie’s and other women’s personal stories, showing how they rose above their circumstances by transforming and renewing their minds. Unsinkable Faith is a breath of fresh air for anyone longing for a heart full of joy, an unbreakable smile, and a new, more optimistic perspective on life. This book will equip you to: Replace pessimism with positive thinking by becoming the captain of your thoughts; Learn how true joy and happiness are based on choice, not circumstances; Overcome unhealthy habits of negative thinking by intentionally implementing three easy mind-renewing steps; Stop feeling hopeless and pitiful, and start feeling hope-filled and powerful instead; and Discover that when you change the way you think, you change the way feel, and in turn you can change your life completely.

One Man’S Life and Thoughts


Book Description

There is no one that can promise that tomorrow will even come, And there is no guarantee at all that we will see tomorrows sun. The promise of another day is not a guarantee things will change, In fact there is no guarantee that there are any days that remain. Then what value is there in today if tomorrow may never come, Why worry about a day not here when our present one isnt done. We should focus on the present and treat each hour as if the best, For times a gift he loans to us when it is gone we have none left. For once its gone its truly lost, not one minute can be returned, The values in how we used it, and most important what we learned. So if were frugal with our time, and use it to learn about his way, He will reward us with additional time in the form of another day. But remember time is still Gods gift; it has value and great worth, A tool hed have us use to learn about his wisdom here on earth. So each moment that he gives to u, is ours to try to be like him. But if we squander what he gives, well not have that time again.
