Encouragement, guidance, and faith building

Encouraging words and guidance in restoring your faith and trust in the Lord. If you have grown weary or feel overwhelmed and overburdened with any or all of the following: problems, fear, the state of the world, resentment, guilt, and the rain that falls on both the just and the unjust, then renew and refresh here. God is not waiting with a stick to whack you every time you fail or feel unworthy. God gives beauty for ashes, strength to the weak, restores the years the worm has eaten and makes all things new. Learn to believe in and live in God’s goodness. This book guides us in turning to God, his word, and restoration. Many sermons and religious books tell us what not to do or beat us up with dogma or what we should have done. Words of ENCOURAGEMENT, LOVE, and HOPE keep us going. Joel’ gift is rekindling our faith, hope, and love. God offers more than “fire insurance” or a gloomy, discouraged, obligated and fearful wait for death and a reward for living a painful, fear-filled, and unworthy-feeling or spiritually prideful life. Find the fruit of the spirit here. Find love and hope here. Be guided to God’s goodness and love.

Joel Osteen is truly haven sent.

This book is going to help me continue to grow towards Christ, and become the person I'm truly meant to be. It makes very strong points on issues that I'm struggling with right now. I pray Gods continue d blessings upon Joel and his family.

Helped me on a sleepless night

The most memorable para was the appendix of scripture. Thos is a scripture based text and is helping me move from a negative perspective to a positive perspective. I am moving towards a perspective of being excited about how is God going to bless me today.
