At one point, author Joe Hoft-who's now a world-traveling executive brimming over with success-found himself living in his brother's basement without his wife or daughters. He was depressed and emotionally drained and broken; he felt like the biblical Job after he lost everything.
So how did he move through huge disappointments and turn life lessons into success? He cultivated relationships with the right people and, more importantly, learned how to live a life of gratitude for the matchless grace of God.
No matter your age or experience, you too can pursue a better life filled purpose and joy. Each chapter in Hoft's new book offers an uplifting word of encouragement or guidance, from the idea that "Life Is Miraculous" to the reminder that "God Is Always There." His words will encourage you to "Seek Awareness of God's Grace," "Cherish Your Time with Your Family," or even "Take It Easy." Ultimately, however, this inspirational revelation of personal yet global experiences encourages you to pray, let God guide your actions, and learn to see loss and struggle as blessings that lead to favor.
