So you think you've had a bad day by Rulon Ball Pdf

The title of this book is taken from one of the hilarious stories in the book. All of the stories are written about events that have happened to me and others. The clogged drain story is about a secretary who was constipated and took a laxative, then went to work not feeling well. When she sits down on the great white throne, it practically explodes under her. The skunk story will make you wish you had a pet skunk that doesn't stink. My uncle's mule story is so unique and funny you might fall off your chair. Each one is unique and was chosen because it was extra funny or was in some way exciting or otherwise interesting. The Alzheimer's story really gives you food for thought. There are no everyday, run-of-the-mill experiences. Every one of them will either make you laugh, make you cry, or give you something interesting to contemplate. You'll enjoy the shoplifting story. It makes you ask, "Are there really people like that?" Yes, there really are! To avoid confusion about the name Lauren, let me explain. My mother named my older brother, Lauren, after her older brother, Lauren, Jesse's brother. Then I named my middle son, Lauren, after my older brother, Lauren. Therefore, there are three generations of Laurens mentioned in this book. Hope you don't get too confused.

Prince of Delights by Renee Roszel Pdf

Angela Meadows loved her hair-brained, interfering mother, but this time she’d gone too far! When her mother publicly announced that her latest prophetic dream fated Tarrant Seaton, prominent playboy, to be Angela’s husband, the timing couldn’t be more tragic. Angela had just been hired by Delila Seaton to remodel parts of the Seaton mansion as well as the family owned chocolate factory. Though humiliated, Angela would not be driven to quit. Working for the beloved matriarch of Seatonville, Kansas, would help her fledgling business finally get into the black and give her the boost in confidence she so badly needed. To Tarrant, Angela Meadows was just another conniving gold digger, no matter how wide eyed, innocent, and alluring she seemed. He had to credit her with smarts, after all. She’d sweet-talked his trusting mother into hiring her – and now he’d be tripping over her at home and at work! Well played, little Miss Wolf-in-Sheep’s-Clothing! Make no mistake, Tarrant Seaton was no babe in the woods when it came to crafty, mercenary females! Even if there was something strangely captivating about this particular female… Now—it was his move.

Give Us This Day Devotionals, Volume 2 by Charles Erlandson Pdf

Give Us This Day is a unique daily devotional commentary for the entire New Testament based on the ancient method called lectio divina. Lectio divina, or "divine reading," is the method used by the early church and countless Christians through the centuries to read the Scriptures to form and transform the soul more than merely to inform the mind. Give Us This Day deals in depth with entire passages and their contexts. Rather than selecting only certain portions of the New Testament to write about, Fr. Charles has written a devotional for each and every passage of the New Testament. Fr. Charles writes for the whole person: he's not afraid to use his sense of humor, and he carefully relates the Bible not only to the individual's life but also to the life of the Church. At the end of each day's devotional, an appropriate Prayer is offered, as well as Points for Further Reflection on the day's lesson. Each devotional concludes with a suggested Resolution to put into effect what the Spirit has stirred up in the heart of the reader during the course of his reading, meditation, and prayer.

The Red Sphinx by Alexandre Dumas Pdf

In 1844, Alexandre Dumas published The Three Musketeers, a novel so famous and still so popular today that it scarcely needs introduction. Shortly thereafter he wrote a sequel, Twenty Years After. Later, toward the end of his career, Dumas wrote The Red Sphinx, another direct sequel to The Three Musketeers that begins a mere twenty days afterward. Picking up right where the The Three Musketeers left off, The Red Sphinx continues the stories of Cardinal Richelieu, Queen Anne, and King Louis XIII—and introduces a charming new hero, the Comte de Moret, a real historical figure from the period. Dumas wrote seventy-five chapters of The Red Sphinx, but never quite finished it and the novel languished for almost a century. While Dumas never completed the book, he had earlier written a separate novella, The Dove, that recounts the final adventures of Moret and Cardinal Richelieu.Now for the first time in one cohesive narrative, The Red Sphinx and The Dove make a complete and satisfying storyline—a rip-roaring novel of historical adventure, heretofore unknown to English-language readers, by the great Alexandre Dumas, king of the swashbucklers.

How to Live Through a Bad Day by Jack W. Hayford Pdf

Each of us has experienced bad days, and these bad days are often compounded by our focus on the "badness" of the situation. But Dr. Jack Hayford contends that," in such times the Lord calls us to hear His voice." And so, beginning with seven phrases uttered by Jesus on the cross, he constructs the model for godly behavior while enduring hardship. Insights include: Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. To forgive those seeking to injure you is to remove yourself from their control. My God, my God, why have you forsaken Me? We can ask God the hard questions. Into Your hands I commit My spirit. Surrender your suffering to God and let go. How to Live Through a Bad Day is ideal for anyone who has experienced stress, pain, weariness, or an assault of character. Jack Hayford speaks the words of Jesus -- the words of life that sustain and encourage us to live through our worst days.
