I've experienced the ups and downs. Hit the rock bottom. This book somehow helped me get through it, it fills with insightful stories that encourage me to keep my faith. Life is full of surprises, there'll be a time when we have to meet with failure, we're failing everyone that loves and cares genuinely. As we sink and drawn into the lowest point, we seen nothing but black and shades of grey, messed up, shattered and falling apart.. We must not give up! Lessons in life are sometimes should be considered as the gift from God, that something way better beyond anything else you could imagine is waiting for you. The key is to believe, put faith above all, be sincere and Pray. God listen to your prayers. :)

I kept picking this up at my grandmother's house until she told me to just take it home and read it there. (Don't worry, I gave it back :)

3/5
While it isn't something I see ever picking up again, I liked a lot of the stories. They inspired me to pray more, and to trust God more. So often I forget and stop thinking about that God helps me every day and answers my prayers, even if it isn't with the answer I expect. I know all of this, of course, but knowing and actually doing...two different things. So, if you're looking for some light reading about sweet things that God made happen, I suggest reading this book, or something similar to it.

„Cāļa zupa dvēselei” stāstu apkopojumus atceros vēl no 1990. gadu vidus, tātad laika, kad tikai reizēm iegāju bibliotēkas „pieaugušo nodaļā”. Atmiņā tie palika kā ļoti sirsnīgi, bet koncentrēti stāsti, kurus par daiļliteratūru nenosaukt (lai gan jau tad domāju, ka pilnīgi noteikti tajos vismaz daļa ir piedomāts klāt, lai būtu lielāks efekts). Jāsaka, ka tie nu nemaz nav mainījušies, un vispār brīnos, ka vēl arvien tie tiek iespiesti, jo būsim godīgi – tādi stāstiņi ir pārcēlušies uz internetu un klejo pat draugiem.lv dienasgrāmatās, nerunājot pat feisbuka sienām un tumblru... Tieši šajā krājumā vairāk piesaistīja tieši to jēga – vairums stāstu ir kristīgu cilvēku liecības. Jāatzīst, ka daudz derīgāk būtu iegādāties grāmatu un lasīt to pamazām, jo tādā ātrumā un koncentrācijā, kā lasīju es, ļoti ātri zuda to iespaids un stāsti saplūda kopā – pārdozēju lasot. Bet jā, „Cāļa zupa dvēselei” tiešām ir zīmols, tu labi zini, ko sagaidīt no grāmatas un reizēm tādai paredzamībai nav nekādas vainas.

I absolutely adored this book I now have a nice collection of these chicken soup for the soul books that target angels. The topic of angels and guardian angels has fascinated me for ages. This is why these books intrigue me with true stories of encounters with their guardian angels and passed loved ones leaving messages and signs to let them know they are watching over them. I've had a few encounters of my own along with my mother so I feel a deeper connection to these books. They are definitely worth reading for both believers and non believers these books have a sense of comfort and peace to them definitely recommend these books. My mother got me into the chicken soup for the soul books through her Collection we used to read to eachother the mother daughter book, so when I found out about the angel related books in this series I had to buy them and I'm happy that I did

Beautiful and inspiring. It makes me happy to see how comforting the power of faith is. Some people may think that leaving things to God's will is like giving up—endless waiting. But what they don't see is the humility, strength, and unwavering patience it took to keep at it even when nothing makes sense.

For anyone who's in doubt, struggling to trust God, afraid to ask for help, or just wants to be cheered up in a way. :))) definitely worth the read

I loved this book, as I love all of the Chicken Soup books I've read so far. It is filled with 101 stories written by individuals who have had their prayers answered. The subjects of the stories vary and are all touching. This book is great for anyone who is beginning a spiritual journey or for someone who needs to be encouraged that God does answer prayers.

This is a lovely book with inspiration stories. These stories are beautiful and uplifting. It's an awesome book to read during this pandemic.

[Lina Budiarti · Rating 5 out of 5]

Setiap orang punya keinginan. Sampaiknlah melalui doa pada yang Maha Kuasa. Bagi-Nya, tak ada doa yang terlalu sederhana atau muluk2. Semua pasti terjawab.

[Brent Soderstrum · Rating 5 out of 5]

I used this book as my daily devotional.

101 stories of people who prayed for various things and how God answered their prayers. Not in their timing but His. Also, it was not always what exactly they had prayed for, but the result was often better than they could have hoped or prayed for.

Enjoy the Chicken Soup for the Soul books. They point to God operating in our everyday world; if we would open our eyes, we could see it.

[Taryn Spearey · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved all the stories in this collection of these short stories. They are stories about healing, divine intervention, miracles and much more.

If you are a Christian or someone who belives in answered prayers, this is a book you should read.

[Nadira Syahidah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ada 101 cerita dan pengalaman asli dari orang-orang di buku ini.
Ceritanya sedih tapi mostly bikin termotivasi bahwa doa-doa yang selama ini kita langitkan tuh ga akan pernah sia-sia.

God is in all of us.
No prayers left unheard.

Well, I have a story in it, so of course it's the most AMAZING book ever written. It is an uplifting collection of stories, and I've gifted it to many friends when they've been sick or going through a personal struggle.

[Carol Whitmore · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love the chicken noodle soup books and I think everyone should read them. This one specifically was really nice to read and I think it would help many people who have been praying their hearts out, to find some comfort.

[L.C. Tang · Rating 5 out of 5]

Organized into ten sections with 101 contributing stories and 352 pages of heart-moving stories about faith, miracles, hope, and the power of prayer. Encouraging and uplifting short stories. I particularly enjoyed section five, titled "Let Go and Let God." Check out www.chickensoup.com
