“AS a matter of fact, God isn't asking you to be thankful. He's asking you to give thanks. There's a big difference. One response involves emotions, the other your choices, your decisions about a situation, your intent, your 'step of faith.”
― Joni Eareckson Tada, A Place of Healing: Wrestling with the Mysteries of Suffering, Pain, and God's Sovereignty

Hey Tom,
I am finding this book challenging, yet faith-building. She takes you on a journey helping you see and feel life from her vantage point. We have gone through a lot of changes in our lives recently, and Joni's book is helping me see the big picture of God's sovereign hand in it all. I highly recommend it!
