My Courage BookAre you having one of those days? Do you want to just scream yourself hoarse or bang your head repeatedly against the wall? Are you worried that the very next person that irritates you will cause you to commit a felony? Do you feel like you're at the bottom of a dark hole and there's no hope of escape? Often in our lives, we suffer from trials, tribulations, pain, sorrow, and simply dark, gloomy days. Sometimes it's hard to focus on our blessings, not our problems. And even worse are the days when God just seems impossibly far away. On those days when you need the right words right now, this book will help you to find the words that immediately give you a sense of serenity, calm and peace. A reminder that God loves you and is always with you, no matter what. Here's Instant Inspiration Immediately! Years ago, Patty Wachold learned courage the hard way: through bad choices and wrong paths. She's been a carnival worker, a drug addict, a rape victim and a single Mom; hung out with bikers, hippies and freaks. She's witnessed terrible violence. But she's also met some fascinating and unforgettable people along the way who helped her on her journey, including some angels in disguise sent by God. She hitchhiked all over the west coast in search of answers, only to finally find the answers at home, right where they had always been, in the midst of her loving family and a very patient, forgiving and loving God. She has a B.A. in Journalism and is a published freelance writer. She'd like to work with troubled youths someday. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her parrot, Fred, and loves talking to people about her best friend, Jesus Christ. |
