Publisher's Synopsis
We all go through seasons of desperation and disappointments. Maybe we go to college with thoughts of making a difference in the world, but then after the first semester we start to wonder if we will even get a job. Perhaps it could be as simple as being married and fulfilling a dream of having a loving family. But then we approach 30 years of age and then 40 years and a season of depression seeps into every thought as reality hits us and now we struggle with what to live for. But then there are others who end up with the dream job or getting married to the prince charming or beauty queen, but then life doesn't end up the way we had hoped. We struggle to get up for work in the morning. The prince charming or beauty queen turns out to be a beast and we end up having a season of depression and we wonder if dreams are even worth having. I think we all know of someone who is struggling with disappointment. Maybe we have friends who are looking at the road they find themselves and are wonder if they should give up, keep going, or change directions. I imagine there are many self-help books with what they perceive to be the solution. So how does this book stand out? I feel the solution to the problem of disappointment is found in the Bible and specifically how we view God working in our lives. I refer back to my personal experience as I guide the reader through how I overcame, and still gain victory, through my seasons of disappointment. Let's go on a journey together as we enter into the realm of joy and away from the trap of depression.
