The Stress Cure: Praying Your Way to Personal Peace by Linda Evans ShepherdMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
We live in a world filled to the brim with advice, and when it comes to dealing with stress, there's plenty of advice to go around. Sleep more, eat better, avoid this, seek out that. But more advice on coping is not necessarily what the stressed and anxious person needs. What we need is a cure. Linda Evans Shepherd has discovered it.
The true remedy to stress, she says, is prayer. In this inspiring book, Shepherd shows readers how to recognize God's continual presence and yield their troubles to the Prince of Peace. Through captivating stories, explorations of fascinating biblical characters, and examples of deeper-than-ever prayers, she brings within readers' grasp the peace that passes understanding. Anyone who is overwhelmed by all of the urgent demands on their time will find in this book a lifeline to true peace.
--My thoughts. I will be adding this book to my shelves. I always love any books by Linda, and this one was no exception. The book says, praying your way to personal peace. It doesn't give anything that you can't really think of yourself, but get your bible out and get ready to dig in. One of my favorite things from this book, of many was, "the best way to develop a grateful heart is to learn how to walk in step with God."
There are areas for you to write down what you are learning and how God is speaking to you, journal areas basically and prayers if you can't think of your own, or to springboard yourself.
God be with you.
