Drawing on scriptural teaching, heart-to-heart storytelling and inspiring quotes, Dutch Sheets shows what God wants to reveal to us during difficult times. Sometimes life just isn't what we thought it would be. Whether it is the loss of a job, an unexpected diagnosis, a wayward child, or even the never-ending negativity of the nightly news, sometimes you just feel like giving up. But what can you do? It may seem too easy, but the answer is simple, and it starts with hope. In The Power of Hope Dutch Sheets shows you how to look to God during these difficult times and move into a place of motivation, desire, and accomplishment-in other words, to rediscover hope. Each chapter also contains meditations that allow you to: *Reflect on the message *Apply the inspirational truths to your life *Pray about your specific situation You can get through any trouble, rise above every disappointment, and re-enter life. Make plans to live!
