[Karin · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is my second time with this book because I didn't finish it the first time. I didn't finish it because I was in such a place of hopelessness that it was too much for me to even think about the possibility of having hope again. Several months later, though, I had worked through several issues and decided to try reading this book again.

I'm so glad I did.

Hope is easy to lose and not always easy to find again. This book not only helps you find hope (based in biblical principles), it also gives examples of once-hopeless people in the Bible who went on to have great faith and do great things.

If you're struggling to stay hopeful in certain circumstances in your life, this might be a good book for you. If it's too much, put it down for a few weeks (or months), then go back to it. This book was originally to hard for me to read but ended up being very encouraging.

Rated G.

Once I allowed myself to just receive the heart of this message, the book awakened all sorts of lovely things in me. I am so full.

Después de un años y medio de la pandemia conectar con la esperanza es algo complicado, pero este libro que a mi gusto lo llamaría manual te reconecta con la esperanza con historias reales y citas bíblicas.

Es un libro muy recomendable, de fácil lectura.
