Relationships seem to attract conflict don't they?

Every person in the world should experience the joy of a peaceful life. But we don't! We are full of emotional bruises, grudges, stress, and unresolved issues in our relationships~We are full of emotional bruises- grudges- stress, and unresolved issues in our relationships}. But things do not need to be this way. We can take control of damaging emotional issues and restore peace in our lives, friendships, families, and marriages. Joyce Meyer succinctly points out how the Bible contains wonderful promises for peace and accord.

In this revision of the best-selling Life Without Strife, readers will learn how to:

·Identify the telltale signs of trouble in a relationship
·Heal troubled relationships
·Keep conflict out of their lives

This book is a life changer. It is easily comprehendable and practical. If you want peace and balance in your life read this. I have even already given away a few copies. End your struggles, it's not worth it, this book is the perfect bridge. Thank God for Joyce Meyer! Relationships matter- If you care about your relationships and improving them- get this book! A powerful nugget she leaves is, "Rather than trying to make someone treat you fairly, pray for them, and trust God to take care of you." "Envy and jealousy are open doors for strife," she points out. By taking thoughts into captivity negative thoughts can be replaced with God-given thoughts that produce joy. She points out that the devil doesn't want the possessions of a person, but seeks to steal one's joy because the joy of the Lord is our strength.  Part of obtaining joy is to overlook other people's shortcomings. We all have them. She encourages you to be generous in granting mercy and being long-suffering. Forgiveness is really emphasized. It should be given frequently and even quickly. In one section of the book she talks about the mysterious way God works in one's life, that often we don't understand at the time what He is doing. The implication for relationships is that sometimes people need to have some slack in their lives as they can be struggling with issues that are unresolved.

Help the relationships in your care and pick this book up!

Conflict Free Living

Dear Jesus,

From your heart's deepest cry to life's joyful praises, nothing is off limits to Jesus. This book shows that it is your whole life that is needed to walk with God.

Knowing Jesus on a deeper, more personal level means sharing all aspects of your life with Him…every day. In Dear Jesus, Sarah Young exemplifies what it means to do this-to dialogue with the savior. She begins each of the 120 devotionals by sharing her intimate struggles and longings that weigh on the heart-being preoccupied with problems; being dissatisfied with oneself, and other spiritual issues. Jesus then responds in His loving way by giving guidance and encouragement, using Scripture as the foundation from which His words flow. Readers will be drawn into the presence of God through these spiritual letters of grace. I read this book and it really softened my heart. I want to live in the light and this is exactly what this book is all based around. Living in light, God's light in your life. Staying in His Light. This book is all about a conversation with God. I think what I like most about Sarah Young as a writer she really writes deeply, very personally, and helps you into a deeper " conversation " with God. Now that is a gift. have already Ms. Sarah's first devotional "Jesus Calling" and have enjoyed it immensely. This newest devotional "Dear Jesus" is just as good, if not better. Ms. Young is able to put in to words, the cry of our hearts as Christians and I truly believe her book was inspired by God. Her devotions lead me to the very heart of God and I love that she has included the actual scriptures in this devotional. If you loved her first devotional, I would highly recommend that you purchase this one as well. You won't be disappointed.

Eat the cookie, But the shoes? I like this book already.

Engrained in our culture is the belief that unbending discipline is the only sure way to success. You must go to the gym five times a week, never order the dessert, and don't even think about buying that dress you keep staring at in the store window. Breaking from such a regimented lifestyle is a huge sign of weakness, righ? Wrong!-and Joyce wants to tell us why...

Though setting rules in our lives are important, it's just as important that we break them from time-to-time. Structure is a powerful tool, but when diverging from your own goals is seen as catastrophic, it can have a hugely negative effect on us. Balance is a core value in life and every once in awhile we deserve to indulge in a guilty pleasure or two. So do not feel bad about straying from your goals every once-in-awhile and in fact, embrace it: eat the cookie and buy the shoes! Meyers' colloquial style is enjoyable, and her advice is sound. She provides examples from her own life to explain why both discipline and celebration are important factors in life, and even the need to celebrate having discipline around a problem area. A celebration can be a nice walk in the park and doesn't need to be something costly at all. Joyce Meyers Eat the Cookie ... Buy the Shoes" was just such a great experience for me. Joyce writes about the importance of celebration in life, as well as the importance of discipline. The titular cookie and shoes are metaphors for learning to keep a proper balance in life.

Balance is key. I have a pretty OCD personality so this book was REAL refreshing to me and my life !

Pick up Eat the cookie , buy the shoes!

Peace. We all want it don't we?

Life can get crazy in so many ways.

What an awesome and excellent book. Inspirational books can be hard to read because they require an open mind, honesty,and work. I usually do not finish an inspirational book and new ones just gather dust on my bookshelf.  In Pursuit of Peace is one of the best books I have read. I finished it in just a month's time. I took my time to read it and I even highlit and marked throughout the book. It is now amongst my books of great reference. I know I will need to reinfore the lessons. I love Joyce's honesty. She admits what are/were her challenges and what is taking her to over come them. This book along with Managing Your Emotions are the only books of hers I have finished and both are good. I recommend this book for people who are just plain tired of trying to be happy and live a joyous life. In Pursuit of Peace is an excellent book on the road to peace. Life is too short and peace makes the ride easier. Joyce Meyer is authoritative in her writing because she struggled with the very issues discussed in this book before learning how to appropriate the peace of God she says is available to us as Christ followers. In fact, she is honest enough to point out certain areas that are still challenging to her. Knowing the principles is the beginning-applying them is where the peace activation kicks in.

She begins this study with the issue of being able to recognize what you can change and what you can't change and acting on that discernment. Some of the very practical matters she discusses is that you have to take care of yourself if you're going to get along with other people. That includes something as basic as rest. I found her discussion on knowledge not being all its cracked up to be to really hit the spot. She pointed out that in some situations it is just better not to know certain things, for example if someone is saying something negative about you, it's better just to not know.

Get this and find ways to keep your PEACE

Anxiety. Worry. Stress.

It seems this is our culture , and if you aren't worried, stressed, well then you don't have much going on in your life now do you?

Is this a Biblical way to live life? No. That's hard isn't it. I know it's hard for me to hear when I think I have a right to be anxious or worried or STRESSED. But Jesus says to look at birds- how he takes care of them he even says look at the flowers even how he clothes them- he knows the hair count on our very heads? Wow. Remembering that in faith helps my anxiety fall away. The Art of Casting Your Cares and Resting in our God. Joyce Meyer explains why we should and how we can: -Trade our anxiety and worry for peace and joy. -Develop a childlike attitude of faith. -Rest in the arms of the Lord. And so much more! You will develop a deeper, more meaningful relationship with your heavenly Father as you understand how He cares for you. By following the leading of the Holy Spirit, your life will be filled with unlimited hope and overflow with His peace, so that you will finally Be Anxious for Nothing!

Difficult times, trials and tribulation are part of living in this broken world. However- God has provided a way for us to enjoy peace as a part of daily life. We can choose either to allow ourselves to be burdened with all that worry and anxiety or to live in the peace and joy the Father intended. In Be Anxious for Nothing, bestselling author Joyce Meyer teaches how to draw on the peace of God in the midst of negative circumstances instead of responding as do many people in the world with restlessness, fear and so much apprehension. She reveals the nature of the peace Jesus describes in John 14:27- a peace which is unlike anything the world knows- and how it can fill every area of your daily life. This book was truly an encouragement to me in my life. To attack life without fear and anxiety that can really hold me back to being and going what God wants me to be and do. Get your life back. Live like Jesus wants us to live- depending on Him and not on ourselves and that defeats that anxiety the worry- the stress.

I encourage you to get Be Anxious For Nothing and start being anxious... for NOTHING.

Punk is defined as a loud, rapidly pace, and aggressive form of rock audio that's widespread within the 70's and 80's. New punk releases have excellent influence like their father, the punk rock. The art of music, attitude and trend that would evolve into 'punk-rock' originated with the garage rock bands of the 1960s. Velvet Underground and the Stooges would pave the way for the mohawked, pinned punks of the seventies, with their uncooked sound and apparent embrace of the anti-image.

In the final month, at Annual Toy Fairs around the world, LEGO have unveiled the subsequent wave of releases in their well-liked Star Wars line. Due for release in August 2010 the LEGO sets are a mix of old and new with brand new sets and re-releases from the Original trilogy, the Prequel Trilogy and the Clone Wars.

Punk rock, as we know it now, initially surfaced in the mid 70's when the US, UK and Australia saw the arrival of quick, edgy, straightforward songs that shocked the music company to its core.

The Sexual Pistols would self-destruct right after just 1 studio album at the finish of a tour of the US. At the last element of a chaotic gig at the Winterland Ballroom on January 1978, Johnny Rotten addressed the crowd with "Ever get the sensation you have been cheated?" This appeared to be mocking the crowd. Rotten left The Pistols along with the band was no more. Though the Pistols would attempt to carry on under Malcolm McLaren's lead, the band's fate has concluded and the genre had its initial casualty.

Along with new sculpts of Boba Fett (with much more authentic blue jumpsuit coloring), Han Solo in Carbonite and Common Grievous there are previously unreleased minifigures of Aalya Secura, Empire Strikes Back bounty hunter Bossk and Clone Wars villain Cad Bane.

The sets themselves are also a mixture of new models and old.

With 297 pieces, model 8089, The Hoth Wampa Set combines the new figure of the powerful Wampa having a redesign of the snowspeeder. The Hoth Wampa set also comes with Luke Skywalker in Hoth gear (ready to be suspended inside the Wampa's meat freezer) plus a snowspeeder pilot and will retail for $39.99.

The latter contains a Carbonite mould that is usually attached to the Han Solo figure and carried by two other figures. Boba Fett's Slave 1 has been released twice just before along with the most recent version, model 8097, is more screen-accurate in both colors and design.

Model 8096 is Emperor Palpatine's Shuttle as seen in Episode Three, where it was put to use to rescue a scarred and burned Anakin Skywalker after his battle with Obi Wan Kenobi. The Shuttle is a very first time release from LEGO and contains figures of The Emperor, Anakin in transition to cyborg Darth Vader, a shuttle pilot and also a medical droid.

You know about Francis Chan's book Crazy Love, even you make know his new one Forgotten God.

Forgotten God has become a part of my top five new favorites and I had no idea that there was even a Forgotten God workbook. Did you?

I came across this workbook that comes alongside this book that I really appriciated.  I could of just read this workbook on it's own, it is so powerpacked. In this workbook companion to Forgotten God, author Francis Chan reminds us of the true source of the church’s power—the Holy Spirit. Chan contends that we’ve ignored the Spirit for far too long, and that without Him, we operate in our own strength, only accomplishing human sized results. Offering a compelling invitation to understand, embrace, and follow the Holy Spirit’s direction in our lives the workbook is designed to initiate and facilitate both individual study, and small group discussion, interaction and practical application of the message of Forgotten God. The workbook will stand alone, or can be used alongside the Forgotten God DVD Study Resource. Francis’ thought-provoking teaching makes this a valuable workbook resource for individual study, a seven-week small group study, churches, youth groups, and college campus ministries—and perfect for retreat weekends. This book is written in such a interesting and powerful way. Francis Chan's way of communicating is pretty straight forward which I think most of us appriciate in this day in age. If you're looking to join a small group or even start one and don't know where to start I would suggest this interactive workbook. I haven't come across a workbook like this. It's real and to the point and seems natural. Such a challenging work from Francis Chan to us.

This workbook would be perfect for small groups to dig deeper into the legendary Forgotten God book.

Pick this book up whether you've read the Forgotten God book or not!

A major factor in the massive success of Amazon's Kindle reader has definitely been the huge number of Kindle titles available for customers to choose from. Currently, Kindle owners can take their pick from more than 725,000 paid titles. There are also 1.8 million out of copyright books which can be downloaded to the Kindle free of charge.

Apart from making so much reading material available for Kindle users, Amazon has also made every effort to allow readers to enjoy Kindle books even if they don't have a Kindle reader. This has been achieved by the release of a number of free Kindle apps which allow Kindle books to be read on a variety of different devices.

At the moment, free Kindle apps exist for the Windows PC, the Apple Mac, the iPhone, the iPad, the Blackberry smart phone and any device which runs Android. At first glance, it almost appears as if Amazon is setting up in competition to itself, but the truth of the matter is that each of these apps acts as a retail outlet for Kindle books.

The latest announcement from Amazon is that Kindle users will soon be able to “lend” each other Kindle books. Amazon has not confirmed the exact date - but it should start prior to the year end.

Users will have the possibility of lending Kindle books that they've enjoyed to their friends and family for a fortnight at a time. The "borrower" can read the book on their Kindle reader - just as if it was one of their own purchases. The original buyer won't be able to access the book for the duration of the loan. Just like a real book in fact.

Some books will be incapable of being lent out. Whether or not a particular Kindle book can be lent will be decided by the publisher. It will be interesting to see how different publishing houses react to this.

Amazon has also confirmed that it will its current free Kindle apps will be extended to include newspapers and magazines as well as Kindle books. The Apple devices will be activated first, followed by desktop applications and Android devices.

Over the last year or so, the ebook reader and ebook market has really taken off. Although the ebook market is still developing and is in an early stage, the public already seems to have grown accustomed to ebooks. This latest development by Amazon brings ebooks even closer to the functionality of conventional books. Apart from marking the pages with a dog-ear, you can now do just about anything with an ebook that you would do with a conventional book. It’s a big step forward for ebook readers and ebooks readers which will help them to become even more widely accepted by the public.

Known throughout the world for his thought-provoking insight and reassuring advice, Max Lucado provides readers with another life changing resource with his new book Fear Not.

Although the book is relatively short, it offers several inspirational quotes from both the Bible and Lucado’s previous works that will help readers overcome the fears that hamper everyday life.

The Fear Not Promise Book is a complement to his previous book Fearless. This little book is packed with materials to encourage readers to overcome any fear or obstacle that may pop up in their lives.

The book is divided into six sections: God is with You, God is Never Surprised, God Provides and Guides, God is in Control, God Cares about You, and God Loves and Forgives.

Each section focuses on common areas of life and provides Lucado’s personal insight on how to overcome these fears. On each page of this book there are several verses that support Lucado's advice and show readers that God not only understands our fears, but it always able to overcome them.

One of the most striking passages in Fear Not can be found on page 16. Lucado promises readers that “You will never go where God is not. You may be moved in life, enlisted, commissioned else where, even hospitalized, but the main truth to this is, you can never go where God is not.”

This simple yet profound idea offered me a great deal of personal comfort and satisfaction as it is often easy to forget that God is always with us. With everything that is seemingly going wrong in today’s world, it is easy for one to worry about their future.

But Lucado’s book shows that in times of great trouble, God can do his very best work.

Fear Not by Max Lucado encourages readers to trust in God’s promise to take care of us and help us overcome whatever life throws our way. Its small size allows for one to carry it wherever they go and its simple layout lets readers pick it up and receive God’s comfort at any time.

This book is a must have for anyone seeking comfort in today’s harsh world.
