The God of the mountains is the God of the valley. This was meme that I saw on someone's Facebook status. It spoke to me, but I was in a time of such deep internal conflict that I just didn't recognize the depth of the truth it conveyed. I was contemplating suicide because my life had seemingly fallen apart. My view was obscured by a barrage of poor life choices so, I did not have time for some fortune cookie type of philosophy on someone's social media status. Also, this was shortly after a dark episode where I was on the verge of taking my own life. As I started this incredulous journey of rebuilding my life I met incredible people that have sowed seeds of wisdom into my life. Thus, in writing this book it is my aim to share insights I have received in a way that is grounded and congruent with Christian faith. This is not a book written by someone on the mountain top looking down on you with abject scrutiny, but just another person making his way through the valley on route to the mountain of hope. So, if you feel lost in this  valley of despair then I invite you to stroll with me on this journey as I reflect and share insights gained in my own journey. It's not some heroic comeback tale, but rather a transparent reflection of what it takes to rise above negativity and internal conflict that continues to torment those who are in search of that elusive break in life. In this book I reflect learning gained from on good and bad  decisions. I try to pull back the veil in a way that makes the experience relatable and also adds value through a God-inspired perspective. I may not have life figured out and that is the beauty of my journey. My boldness  to be imperfect and transparent about that truth. This book sets out to encourage all those who feel lost in the valley of despair. It is my sincere hope that this book delivers in it's goal to remind those still in pursuit of their dream of this simple truth - it is possible.All Rights Reserved

How to Find Purpose and Peace: Why Am I Here? by tacocat91

Why am I here? What is my purpose? What is the meaning of life? Why am I alive? It seems that since the dawn of time we have been asking ourselves this very question. Kings and philosophers have puzzled and theorized, and paupers and plebeians toil under the sun wondering if there's more to life. Even today we seem to be frantically running here or there trying to get the latest scoop, wondering if someone has finally figured it out. People look high and low, and they try a number of things only to still feel unhappy and dissatisfied. In my own life, the only thing that has made me truly happy and given me peace for my soul is God. He has been the chief help in combating my anxiety and depression. For me, God has been the foundation that I've placed my life around and have built my identity. I write about how I've found purpose, peace and how you can too! Jesus loves you and has an amazing plan for your life! Buckle up, and let's read about the purpose of your life and how to find real peace!

God-confident! by emmaroxas

If you have paid for a copy of this e-book, please demand for your money back because this is free. Please feel free to give out a copy of this e-book to everyone you know who needs it. I have written this for confused women who don't know how to value themselves. I've written this book for that young lady who doesn't see her worth. I have written this for that insecure girl who wants to take her own life because she feels her life isn't worth living anymore. May God use the words in this to breathe life into tired souls. What makes me qualified to write this kind of e-book? I can tell you that I was once very insecure about myself. I have been all that I've mentioned above. When I was a child, I had death wishes. When I grew into a teenager, I wanted to kill myself or wanted to disappear and be invisible. When I grew into adulthood, I was so insecure about my own self-worth that I let it stop me from living the life I was supposed to live. But I outgrew all of these because I grew confident - confident of God and myself. I won't say that I've reached the perfect level of confidence but I grew up a lot. In this e-book, I will talk about confidence and identity. I hope you will take the time to take this growth development with me. I have made this a God-book because after all - God is the source of confidence.

How I Found God by AndreaMaquelviski

Through this work Andréa Maquelviski shows that when you decide to enter the path of God, your self-knowledge automatically begins, awakening your conscience even more. God offers full self-knowledge that you won't find anywhere else. The abandonment of your old self and the beginning of a new road in search of the One who has always been, is and will be with you eternally. We just need to awaken and enter the path is awakening. Bon voyage! How I Found God is a personal account of the trajectory of the search and encounter with God, however, much more than talking about religion, it is going beyond. To go beyond yourself is to find yourself in God. A search, a path, an encounter, a reunion and a rebirth. It is the certainty of correct choices, of self-knowledge without makeup, masks or magic formulas. It is the achievement of walking that leads to the transcendental. That starts with simple everyday choices that will lead you to chaos or raise your level of consciousness, making you understand who you really are and who God is. Resignations, questions, doubts, problems, everyone knows that this is part of the path, it is the necessary polishing for an encounter with yourself and God, there is no way to escape this, unless you want to close your eyes and let your life pass by. in blank. It is when you and God merge into one heart, free from prejudices, ties, judgments, anything or thought that spoils this union. For God, there is no color or race, nothing, that cannot reach Him. His merciful heart welcomes ALL those who desire a sincere encounter with Him. This is more than a calling, it is an invitation to love!

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy by Beautiful_Tragedy8

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

𝑳𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝑺𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒄𝒌| Vision of Love Book 2 by nenewritesometimes

Vision of Love Book 2 *read book 1 before this* You're special to me. You're the only one who I wouldn't mind losing sleep for, the only one who I can never get tired of talking to, and the only one who crosses my mind constantly throughout the day. You're the only one who can make me smile without trying, bring down my mood without the intention to and affect my emotions with every action of yours. I can't explain with just words how much you mean to me, but you're the only one I'm afraid of losing and the one I want to keep in my life. You could say were love struck. feb 2021-mar 2021

iMotivate | ✓ by xurxmoon

"Hi, and welcome to iMotivate.com, a place where I'm here to support and help as much as I can for anyone who needs someone to listen to. I'll give you life advice, encouragements and also might be a friend to all of you. No matter what age, race, or religion you are, and where you are from, I will still be here for you. You can call me P and if you need any help, you can message me through this website, just click on the "send a message" button or you can email me at imotivatesupport@gmail.com. Don't be shy to send a message, I won't mind at all (unless it's inappropriate, that's unacceptable and will be blocked or deleted) but if you even want to drop a 'hi', go ahead!" Petra Hollis is an optimist and she is also the creator of the website "iMotivate.com" where she helps in motivating people no matter what age or where they are from. Everyone look up to her there and see her as their idol. But here's the catch. Out of the website and in real life, Petra is not really an optimist. She tries to be but it's hard if she spends her days getting bullied by the students at school. It becomes worse when one of her bullies found out she is the creator of the well-known iMotivate.com and her bullies suddenly became so keen on torturing her until there's no positivity left in her just to watch her shatter. How will Petra keep on motivating when she's crumbling apart herself?

A Practical Guide to the Logic, Philosophy and Thoughts of Christianity by SamuelGan

Why do so many people on this planet believe in a divine being? Is it logical to believe in one? There are so many claims by so many religions, so which is real and logical? Religious sects cannot even agree amongst themselves on doctrines, how can there be a One true divine being then? Why do Christians believe this? Can 'evolution' and 'God' co-exist? This book uses logic and modern day examples to explain the numerous questions that may flood atheists, agnostics and Christians alike. The first section deals with the logic of a divine being, the second deals with specific issues in Christianity, and the third section contains some of the personal psalms and reflections on things that a Christian might face and struggle. Each section contains a collection of articles, some academic, some reflective, and some argumentative. As society progresses in the direction of science and technology, logic and scientific validation plays an increasing role in everyday thought processes. In the scientific and logical world, religion, faith, and beliefs get continuously challenged. Many once-faithful Christians may begin to question their Christian beliefs, or get confused on the validity of the numerous doctrines and teachings of various Christian sects. Similarly, the agnostic is thrown into confusion amongst the claims of many religions and their sects on the 'Truth'. On the other end of the spectrum, the hard-core atheist begins to question the intelligence of more than 50 % of the world population that believe in some sort of divine being(s). The book utilizes logical arguments, and expositions of modern day examples in hopes to bring a clearer picture to issues dealing with a divine creator, the search for the truth, and certain issues in Christianity.

A Beautiful Mess. by KhanyiiJM

We never notice something is missing until it's gone. We never know about the void until we know what was supposed to fill it. We never know the magnitude of the impact until it's felt. We never have regrets until we make mistakes. We never see rainbows unless there was a storm. We can never make peace without there being a conflict first. It might all sound bad at first but keep in mind that there's always good where there's bad. There's always truth where there's lies. Theres always life where there's death. And theres always love where there's hate. Put this all together and you have A Beautiful Mess...

Finding Myself ✓ by sihle0071

[COMPLETELY EDITED AND FINISHED.] "Being abused your whole life isn't nice. Being told that you are not worthy and being punished for all the little mistakes is not nice.

Join a girl as she navigates her way through her last year of highschool, dealing with abuse while she tries to find herself in the midst of everything. Will she be able to overcome the obstacles that come her way or would she crumble and give up on life.
