What if I told you all diets work? They do; they just are not sustainable. Over the last few decades, people have become larger, unhappier, less active, sicker, and aging quicker. Why is this? It boils down to choices. Choosing healthier ways of living doesn't just include diet and exercise. Weight gain is a result of the choices we make based on our circumstances. We lose and we gain over and over again. Inside this book, you will be guided through all aspects of living healthier and happier lives, and in return, there will be weight loss.

Letters from God is God himself telling her what to write for him. She was only about the age of eighteen when this started. She would get the urge to write whenever the Lord would tell her to write. This whole book is truly only from God because she didn't finish school, only went to sixth grade. She can't read or write too well. Monica knew it was God instantly from the first time she wrote down one of her little letters from God in her phone, and when she stopped and read it, she knew it was God writing for her with her own hands because it was nothing like how she usually talks or spells.

As the eldest child born to a single mother, I was parentified at a young age. On the weekends when my mother worked as a nurse at the local hospital and all I wanted to do was be a kid, I was responsible for my younger brother and sister. That included everything from getting them dressed to feeding them and making sure they were safe. Growing up, I became increasingly more and more convinced that I never wanted children of my own. Instead, I concentrated on establishing a career and experiencing a life that did not include children.

This is a true story. What started as a personal memoir about the author's life took an unexpected and sudden turn. After all was said and done, the book actually contains very little about the life of the author. What you will find in this audiobook is hope.

Be challenged and inspired as you listen to this gripping true story of a prisoner turned pastor, serving His God and countrymen in war-torn Ukraine. Despite the very real danger to himself and his family, Zhenia took food to the starving people in front-line villages, brought VBS to their children, and ministered to the Ukrainian soldiers. He dodged bombs, drones and gunfire to serve the Lord, often living, as he described it, "on the edge of eternity."

Living with my mother and stepfather, I had everything I needed. I had dreams, but everything was pitch-black. I would wake up and see nothing. However, when I moved to my grandmother's house, I began to have dreams that I could see clearly, though I didn't understand them. I would tell others about my dreams, but they didn't understand either. As I got older, the dreams never went away. I gave my life to Christ in 1998, and before the foundation of my life, I had an assignment to carry out, which I discovered in 2003.

Life is a journey, and like any successful journey, we need to know our destination. Any successful journey requires preparation. If we are going by roadway, we will need a GPS or a road map.

Sometimes, we come to a point in life where we want answers and don't really know where to look or who or what to trust. Hopefully, in listening to this book, you will receive answers to some questions you might have or maybe some ideas that will give you direction as you move forward in life.

Unfortunately, many people, impacted by their own negative emotions and also letting the emotional stress of others compound theirs, equate to uninvited guests occupying some of the valuable real estate of your mind, with no benefit to you. Adym Dantz teaches you to both mitigate and annihilate the health-destroying effects of negative human emotions that drain you and explicitly shows you that through Christ, you were given victory over all life's circumstances according to Colossians 2: 9-10.

It's time for the body of Christ to rise up and walk in the freedom that Jesus paid for us to have. Satan has no more power over us because Christ has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of God's dear Son. Christ has also given us "all things" that pertain to life and godliness. The work has already been done. The Bible justifies that we are healed, delivered, and set free.

Plunging into darkness, you look for a lifeline. I came forth from the mental hospitals fighting; drugged and almost committed for life. Flashbacks and putting the pieces together, memories unearthed. Unwanted are the memories, yet they come, crying out to God to not be forgotten. The mental system is designed to lock one in without recourse. And then comes the realization that to be alive is to breathe the air without restraint. To know that after the journey of waiting, my truth has set me free. I am Hilary Nili, and I survived.

The Spirit-filled life is a lifelong adventure into the depths of God's Love. Jesus is the Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, desiring to inundate everyone who comes to Him with Living Water from His Well, which never runs dry. He is waiting at the Well for anyone who will come, just as He waited when he met the Samaritan woman at Jacob's Well many years ago here on Earth. He said to her, "Whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life."

Marriage was intended for the couple to experience God's glory lavished on each other by each other and, in turn, poured out on the world around them. God's glory in marriage is nothing but His absolute compassion and mercy, slowness to anger, unfailing love, impeccable faithfulness, kind forgiveness, and His refusal to excuse guilty actions.
