'n Reis na innerlike vrede en wysheid - Hierdie 365 oordenkings verken elke aspek van die Gebed om kalmte en hoe jy dit daagliks op jou lewe kan toepas.
Ons lewe is gejaagd. Ons omstandighede – goed en sleg – stoot ons hiernatoe en daarnatoe. Ons voel asof gebeurtenisse buite ons beheer ons lewe bepaal. Ons smag na vrede, na ’n plek waar veiligheid en rus is. As antwoord op hierdie soeke na vrede herinner die geliefde predikant en skrywer Trevor Hudson lesers aan die beproefde wysheid in die alombekende Gebed om kalmte:
God, skenk my die gemoedskalmte, om die dinge te aanvaar wat ek nie kan verander nie, die moed om die dinge te verander wat ek kan, en die wysheid om te weet wat die verskil is.
Hierdie 365 oordenkings verken elke aspek van hierdie gebed en hoe jy dit daagliks op jou lewe kan toepas. Namate jy die Gebed om kalmte gebruik as gids om elke dag in vriendskap met jou Here en Skepper te lewe, sal God se geskenk van vrede jou lewe vul en deur jou vloei waar jy jou ook al bevind. Elke oordenking word afgesluit met ’n praktiese voorstel hoe jy hierdie gebed elke dag kan uitleef. Só sal jou lewe ál meer op God gefokus word, en sal jy die innerlike vrede ervaar waarna jou hart smag.

How do you live a full life? Perhaps the better question is, how do you
really live when life throws you sucker punches, when you face
obstacles that seem to snuff out your faith, when you lose something or
someone precious to you? In The Fight to Flourish, Jennie Lusko
encourages women to suit up and thrive, not just in the dailies of
monotony and routine but even in the most desolate of places. Using the
backdrop of her second-born daughter Lenya’s passing into heaven five
days before Christmas in 2012, Jennie invites readers to embrace
whatever destination they’ve landed. She teaches how, through the good
and the bad, they can learn to grow, be strong, draw near to God, and
be a blessing to others. It is in this sacred space of pain and promise
that women can begin to flourish.
The chaos and evil so prevalent in the world today can leave us feeling
