A Thankful Heart in a World of Hurt, Pamphlet – 5 Pack

It is hard to be grateful when you are looking into the jaws of mind-bending pain. Chronic illness, a heart attack, a terrible car accident, caring for a developmentally disabled child, facing betrayal and loneliness. These tough times make you want to give up and throw in the towel. You try to overcome, but the exhaustion destroys your energy and hope. You try to pray, but the pain interrupts your concentration. You want to give up.

In A Thankful Heart in a World of Hurt, author Joni Eareckson Tada avoids "churchy lingo" and "easier-said-than-done" advice. Instead, she tackles relevant questions such as:

How can I really give thanks for all things?
How can I cultivate a grateful spirit?
What was the Apostle Paul's secret to a grateful heart? (He had been beaten, stoned, whipped, starved, shipwrecked and betrayed by people he thought were friends.)
How is it possible to "Rejoice in the Lord always"?

Includes practical tips and relevant insights that will help you experience God's peace even during tough times. Perfect for personal use, small group use, or to hand to a friend for encouragement. 14 panels, fits inside most Bibles, 8.5 x 5.5 inches, unfolds to 38 inches long.

The topics of fear and hopelessness, depression and suffering, loneliness and worry are issues that author, Joni Eareckson Tada, can speak to personally: A diving accident in 1967, when she was 17, left her a quadriplegic. She has lived 45 years in a wheelchair and she has experienced her share of ups and downs. "But," she says, "oh, the difference the grace of God has made in my life."

Let Joni tell you her secrets to peace and joy, despite her wheelchair. She has spent decades studying the Word of God. She knows that God does not enjoy seeing your suffering. He has compassion for you and gives you many ways to deal with life's pain so that you can have peace.

She has taken her most important insights on thankfulness and joy and encapsulated them into this 14-page pamphlet. Whether you or a loved one is suffering, this pamphlet will bring you comfort.
