"How did I get here?"
When led to the valley by God what is one to learn? What is one
to see? How is one to pray? How is one to praise; and how long is
one to be there?
It's not about us, but it's all about Him. God is teaching and
throughout our lives in various ways we are constantly learning who
He is and why we were truly called into existence. For some the
lesson is an easy one. For some the lesson is hard and long. For
me-the seeing, the learning, the reality of Him being a true and
living God was found in the valley-some 21 years in the valley.
What about you?
The goal of this book is to help create an intense desire to
meet the Lord Jesus at the Lord's Supper on a regular basis, just
as He has a passionate longing to meet us there. It has weekly
meditations to help enrich that special time, which can inflame a
consistent devotion that can relight your candle. It can be used as
a launch pad by the pastor, teacher, or preacher for individual
sermons and teachings on the Lord's Supper, or simply a devotional
companion for the Christian at home.
Some churches have a tendency to use the same meditation, same
Scripture, and often the same songs every time they observe the
Lord's Supper corporately. This regular practice can become boring,
routine, ritualistic, and eventually meaningless without taking an
approach to deflect that. It helps to use a different meditation
every time: take a new outlook, change the topic, or use a new
theme of our Lord's life and sacrifice and meditate on it, though
maintaining the foundation of Christ's sufferings and
crucifixion.
The Greatness of men are not based on struggling alone, neither on
their own idea nor effort; but only through the divine Grace of
GOD. It was consequently the grace of God that David was promoted
from been a Shepherd to a king. Each and every body desires to be
successful; but this success can only be obtained through the
divine power and Grace of the Almighty GOD. It is true that no body
wants to be identify with a poor man who is a failure. The desire
of every man is to be prosperous but only those that accepts GOD'S
word can enjoy "GOD' KINGDOM PROSPERITY
Entering the human race, we walk out into a world, searching for
fulfillment. In our pursuit, we struggle with emotional
insecurities and faulty relationships. Eventually we find ourselves
in a society filled with broken people where many weary travelers
are on the same endless quest for peace and well-being. In The
Search Stops Here, the author gives details of her personal
experiences with depression, anxiety, anger, and suicide. Sharing
her journey toward restoration, she explores the root causes of
defeat, aiding in figuring out our frustrations and our hurt. She
addresses life issues such as control and expectations and provides
practical and proven processes for an improved level of health and
wholeness. Debbie Calvert insists that the damage of rejection can
be repaired, the fight to conquer inferiority ended, and the pain
of troubling emotions relieved. Tackling foundational beliefs, the
author shows how thought processes affect our behaviors and
strongly suggests the need of new "house rules." This book offers
convincing evidence of an alternative route - one which is more
effective in offering nurture and love, human nature's absolute
necessity. Stressing the importance of living one day at a time and
better understanding true success, The Search Stops Here challenges
us to stop our tiring efforts and end our lifelong search.

Beverly Jane Phillips grew up in a Christian family, married a
minister, and served with him in four separate parishes. She was
one of the first women in the Presbyterian Church to earn a master
of divinity degree. But even during this amazing life, Beverly had
trials and days when she did not feel her Lord by her side. She had
days when she felt doubt-sometimes even despair. To combat these
days of darkness and bring her closer to God, Beverly began a daily
prayer journal. For over thirty years, she wrote her morning
prayers in spiral notebooks; these became the basis for "From
Heaven to My Heart, " a collection of prayers from an ordinary
Christian woman who lived an extraordinary life. Beverly's
transparency about her own spiritual journey not only enlightens
but also encourages, sharing the message that even the devout
encounter moments of difficulty in their faith. Through those
difficulties difficulty arise inspiration, insight, wisdom-and
faith in an everlasting, benevolent creator. Whether you are
interested in beginning a journey with God, or seeking
encouragement to continue, "From Heaven to My Heart" will become a
valued companion.
