Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the darkest, most difficult, and most painful days of my life-injured at work, loss of job, inability to do the usual work, crisis at home with an injured and aging mother to support, feeling weak and helpless-God reminded me of King David encouraging himself in the Lord. As I looked back over my life, I saw I had a lot to be thankful for, because God is always faithful, He is and will always be the great I Am, and a help in our troubles. He will remain the stability of our times and life, and with that blessed assurance, we can truly face tomorrow without fear but with trust, walk on in obedience, and prepare the way for His return.
Book Synopsis Looking Back from 2101 by : Steve Halpern
Download or read book Looking Back from 2101 written by Steve Halpern and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-01-08 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s the politicians and media pundits argued that we experienced the most dramatic financial upturn in the history of the United States. Yet, today in the year 2001 forty-five million people lack health insurance; thirty-five million experience hunger, millions are functionally illiterate, and anyone living in Philadelphia who earns the minimum wage, needs to work eighty-four hours per week to avoid homelessness. When we look at the facts, the so-called financial upturn of the 1990s was a myth for eighty percent of the population. Today, when we adjust for inflation, the least affluent eighty percent of the population earns no more than they did in the early 1970s, yet they routinely work more hours. As harsh as all these conditions are, an all out collapse of the economy is possible in our lifetimes. While these conditions exist an enormous amount of waste is generated in the world. Whether we purchase a tooth pick or a town house, we pay for services which add nothing to those commodities. When we need medical care we would never go to an insurance agent, yet insurance companies profit off of our need for health care. When we purchase a house we dont rely on bankers to build the house, yet banks collect enormous sums in interest payments for the purchase of homes. When we turn on the television we see advertising which adds nothing to the quality of the programming, yet we pay more for commodities because of advertising. These few examples show how there are enormous resources which could be used to make dramatic improvements in the standard of living throughout the world. Looking Back From 2101 is a novel which imagines what the world might look like if human needs were the top priority, and the primary motivating force of society was human solidarity. This book has a similar theme as Looking Backwards by Edward Bellemy which was written in 1887 and sold millions of copies throughout the world. Harry Goldberg is a factory worker in the year 2001. One night he goes to sleep and doesnt awaken until the year 2101. In this world of the future Harry discovers that poverty has been eliminated, yet people are only asked to work for twenty hours per week. The government strives to eliminate alienation from the workplace, and to organize industrial production in a way that is harmonious with the environment. Everyone who is born into this world has many rights which they can use throughout their lifetimes. These include the right to food, clothing, housing, health care, education, communication, transportation, and exposure to the arts or recreational activities. Everyone is also encouraged to offer their opinions concerning any and all topics. From the perspective of this future world Harry proceeds to have a series of conversations with African Americans, women, a Puerto Rican, a Native American, a farmer, a garment worker, a doctor, and a student where they explore how and why the world was transformed. Harry begins to realize that all the advances which he is witnessing in this new world were indeed possible in the twentieth century. These changes didnt occur because of scientific achievements or brilliant political leaders. The transformation of society came about because of the determination of the masses of people to construct a world where human needs are more important than profits, and human solidarity is the best way of motivating working people. Looking Back From 2101 is an attempt to contrast the world as it exists from the world as it might be. While politicians and media pundits tell us what we cant achieve, this book makes an attempt to look at what is possible.

Covering this time span, the author manages to express his observations and experiences in verse of great depth, impact and insight. These are used as a foundation with which he looks forward and makes some stark predictions about what tomorrow may hold in store - both for himself as well as for his loved ones. In this book, the authors everyday life amongst his closest family and friends was used as the basis for numerous international misadventures.

Book Synopsis Your Face Tomorrow: Fever and Spear (Vol. 1) by : Javier Marías
Download or read book Your Face Tomorrow: Fever and Spear (Vol. 1) written by Javier Marías and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2007-09-17 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A daring masterwork by Javier Marias: "Spain's most subtle and gifted writer." (The Boston Globe) Part spy novel, part romance, part Henry James, Your Face Tomorrow is a wholly remarkable display of the immense gifts of Javier Marias. With Fever and Spear, Volume One of his unfolding novel Your Face Tomorrow, he returns us to the rarified world of Oxford (the delightful setting of All Souls and Dark Back of Time), while introducing us to territory entirely new--espionage. Our hero, Jaime Deza, separated from his wife in Madrid, is a bit adrift in London until his old friend Sir Peter Wheeler—retired Oxford don and semi-retired master spy—recruits him for a new career in British Intelligence. Deza possesses a rare gift for seeing behind the masks people wear. He is soon observing interviews conducted by Her Majesty's secret service: variously shady international businessmen one day, would-be coup leaders the next. Seductively, this metaphysical thriller explores past, present, and future in the ever-more-perilous 21st century. This compelling and enigmatic tour de force from one of Europe's greatest writers continues with Volume Two, Dance and Dream.

Book Synopsis For the Sake of My Children by : Yvonne White
Download or read book For the Sake of My Children written by Yvonne White and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the Sake of My Children is a book of poetry inspired by one woman's challenges with relationships and motherhood. The poems inside will bring readers from anger and fear toward feelings of wonder at the face of God as they contemplate the experiences of a woman motivated in all things to keep her children safe. Born in Jamaica, Yvonne was raised by her grandparents. She is a proud mother of six children. She went to the college of hard knocks called life. She has been knocked down several times, but for the sake of her children, she found herself asking God for wisdom to know that she would overcome. Yvonne started writing when she was abandoned by her first husband with their children while he rode off into the sunset and started another family. She completed a course in community development, then worked in several communities across Jamaica. In 1999, she was laid off. Faced with the fear of losing their home and splitting up her children, she went to court seeking the judge's assistance in getting child support; only to have a high-court judge tell her to send her children to the poorhouse. It was only by the grace of God that Yvonne did not lose her mind. She wants her children to know that people can be cruel, but she holds onto the hope that they will have a much brighter future. Her faith in God remains strong even after the death of her daughter, Jodi. She still sings songs of praise to God and shows her children what it is to believe through it all! Check out her daughter, Sarah, performing dramatic readings of her poetry on YouTube sarahclunis
Book Synopsis Simple Things by : Charles Preston Fletcher
Download or read book Simple Things written by Charles Preston Fletcher and published by Inspiring Voices. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of simple poetry is a pleasant journey of deeper self-awareness, and gratitude, on the road to self-discovery. You will learn a little more of how to find and fully appreciate the joy and fun in life as the topics of love, gratitude, hope and inspiration are more deeply explored. God gives us strength through the struggle between good and evil. In this struggle is where the best in life is found. The more we look the more we begin to clearly see that the joys in life abound. If we are lucky, God lets us all start out our lives with a strong sense of curiosity, while knowing that we are loved. We find the best in life by strengthening three aspects of our faith. The strength of our faith in God, the strength of our faith in others and the strength of our faith in ourselves. Both our love and our faith are strengthened by never giving up. At some point in our lives, many of us come to realize that it is the strength we find in the selfless love of Jesus Christ that is all that's held us up. The greatest value in the Christian life is the gift of eternal life! The second greatest value in the Christian life is in the living of it! Curtis H. West, M.L.S. The journey of self-discovery can be frightening, exhilarating, confusing, liberating, and often best undertaken accompanied by a caring voice. Charles Preston's poetry shiningly serves as such a voice for all who wish to begin a journey of their own. Suzanne Beeson, Ph.D., HSPP
Book Synopsis Hero in My Own Eyes by : Max Roytenberg
Download or read book Hero in My Own Eyes written by Max Roytenberg and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-10-26 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the fictional life of Maxie Blum. It is a view of the world through the eyes of this fictional character. Maxie comes to the conclusion that he has a messianic role that only he can accomplish, to salvage the world from some indeterminate fate he believes is unacceptable. Marching to the beat of some mysterious inner drummer, he seeks a heroic role that will realize his near divinity. This book details how he copes with the messy realities of an actual life, always searching to find a satisfactory resolution to his dreams. There are women, marriages, and children as well as the travails of the working world. He finds his redemption and salvation not in the physical world that may lead only to small successes of some satisfaction but in the arms of a woman from his youth who haunts his dreams. This work is that love story, how we got there, and what we do then, having arrived in paradise without a crucifixion.
Download or read book Esther written by Trudy Morgan-Cole and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2003 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trapped in the sensual swirl of an alien culture, her poise, beauty, and skill with the four-stringed oud caught the eye of Hegai. As she rose through the harem ranks, her true identity carefully concealed, her faith in eclipse, Esther had no inkling that the fate of a nation would hang upon her courage. Based on meticulous historical research, Trudy J. Morgan-Cole weaves the biblical story of Esther into secular history. Her deep narrative, involving more than 70 characters, brings to life the Zoroastrian society of ancient Persia and chronicles the known exploits and foibles of king Xerxes in authentic detail. Her amazing story shows how God turns women with common fears, struggles, and identity crises into heroines of faith. If you liked Terri Fivash's Joseph, you'll love Trudy J. Morgan-Cole's Esther.
Book Synopsis Little Bits of Heaven by : John H. MacDonald
Download or read book Little Bits of Heaven written by John H. MacDonald and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hi, my name is John H. Macdonald. What follows is a summary, or an explanation, of Little Bits of Heaven. How do you explain some written words? To begin with, I have been a writer, a poet, only in recent years. Construction was my means of financial gain for many years. A motorcycle accident put an end to my old world. When I awakened from a coma, everything was different. After a while I began to write, to formulate a reason for my existence. My friends have labeled me a spiritual soul, and some even like me now. I believe we all are faced with choices, some good and some not so good, that would define human nature. This book is a look at human nature in many different approachesfrom a sailors standpoint to a baseball players way of life. And there it is: a man or woman trying to find their way through all the obstacles, trying to stop or disillusion us on our way to the hereafter. I hope every reader will find something uplifting in my words.
