Keep going to it!,
This review is from: God's Words of Life for Dads (Hardcover)
This is a little "gift book" that I happened to stumble upon in the hospital gift shop the day after my first child was born 6 years ago. It is a little hard cover book that has a padded feel and a ribbon marker. It's just a little "gifty" thing. There is a place in the beginning for inscriptions.
But... the book may be one of the most important in my book shelf. I keep going to it when I face adversity. The little book works like a little pocket topical index for the Bible. Topics covered include: Anger, Commitment, Failure, Success, Money, Decisions, Fatherhood etc. etc. Each entry has its own little chapter. Each chapter is made up of Bible verses that correspond to the entry. Want to read Bible passages relevant when you feel like you have failed at something? Look up failure and read. The same with any topic. I end up going to this book almost as often as I go to my pocket edition of The Imitation of Christ (Dover Thrift Editions) or Saintly Solutions to Life's Common Problems: From Anger, Boredom, and Temptation to Gluttony, Gossip, and Greed Both these books are excellent, and certainly there is much to learn from the lives of the saints, but this little book is just Bible passages with a short reflection, and is an EXCELLENT place to go to for sustenance and wisdom in facing life's common challenges. I really think this little book is an underestimated and ignored TREASURE that should be in every father's bookshelf.
