Each moment that you’re given is a precious gift from God. You can
choose to have a thankful attitude and live each moment full of joy,
simply because God is good. In The Power of Thank You: Discover The Joy
Of Gratitude, renowned Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling
author Joyce Meyer encourages us to take a look at ourselves and the
importance of being thankful.
Living life with a heart of gratitude for who God is and what He has
done lifts your burdens and allows you to see everything in a different
light. Regularly giving thanks to God not only helps you fully realize
how He’s working in your life, it gives you a new perspective—your mind
is renewed, your attitude is improved, and you're filled with joy.
Things will certainly happen to you that don’t seem fair, and it’s much
easier to make excuses and feel sorry for yourself. Keep saying, “I
trust You, God, and I believe You will work it all out for my good.” If
you find The Power of Thank You in every situation, truly believing
that God is working everything out for your good, you will end up with
the victory every single time.
Dit is nie noodwendig maklik om bly te wees nie – maar Johannes de Villiers wys hoe dit ’n haalbare doel is vir enigiemand. Vind in hierdie boek ’n omvattende blik op lewensvreugde; alles van teorieë oor wat presies blydskap behels tot praktiese wenke om dit te bereik, met inligting van spiritueles sowel as sielkundiges. Ware verhale staaf sy voorstelle, soos dié van die man wie se pad na blydskap begin het toe Geheime Polisie hom skiet.
Television has conditioned us to tolerate visually entertaining
material measured out in spoonfuls of time, to the detriment of
rational public discourse and reasoned public affairs. In this
eloquent, persuasive book, Neil Postman alerts us to the real and
present dangers of this state of affairs, and offers compelling
suggestions as to how to withstand the media onslaught. Before we
hand over politics, education, religion, and journalism to the show
business demands of the television age, we must recognize the ways
in which the media shape our lives and the ways we can, in turn,
shape them to serve out highest goals.
