Promises of Hope for Difficult Times by Jane Kirkpatrick
Please try again later. With panache, humor, and compassion for the hurting, Diana Savage reaches into your sagging soul and lifts it from despair to trust. Savage writes from the viewpoint of a formerly wounded soldier offering comfort to fellow warriors. Her candor is an arm around your shoulder as she shares about pain inflicted by well-meaning mentors, untying the knots of wrong teaching, and the death of her infant son.
She shows you how to trust the Lord for healing from your own sorrows and pains. And she helps you smile in the process. Nearly every chapter gave me a chuckle or a smile for a sweet companion to its wisdom and encouragement. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. With a winsome style and a compassionate understanding of the heart's hurts, Diana's short devotions bring, hope, encouragement and joy to readers.
We've all been hurt, but Diana's devotions point us to God and the assurance that no matter what happens, God is not only with us, he has a sense of humor too. These are devotions I will read and reread, because they help renew the heart lifting truth that God's blessings are new every morning. Refreshingly honest and straight from the heart devotions that will encourage and inspire you!
Written by one who has "been there" and experienced the healing touch of Jesus, they made me laugh, they made me cry, they gave me renewed hope for tomorrow. After reading this, I bought another one for a gift. The encouraging words are helpful. First, Diana is an expert in helping broken hearts heal. She has worked to help many people through her writing, is a well-known speaker, and is an accomplished blogger. She has shared the same journey we are all on.
She does it with heartwarming stories and the Word of God. For pastors, this book is extremely helpful. Her meditations are riddled with great stories that can be used as illustrations in sermons, counseling, and devotions. The pastor can know that the book he is giving out contains wise counsel and solid instruction. Ministers are constantly looking for books to help them in their journey. When this book arrived in the mail, I had to wait two days before my wife finished it so I could even read it. This book offers just that.
Ministers themselves need something to give them a reminder that God is with them at all times. I just finished reading Diana's book and am happy to recommend it to anyone who has ever felt alone and discouraged - or just simply needs to be encouraged! Diana has a unique way of weaving humor into every chapter and there were many of her illustrations that I could personally relate to.
I am reminded when reading another person's story - that we are all connected here on earth by our stories and the way in which we navigate through hardship, loss and pain, either in a good way - or bad way, ultimately defines us. To find someone come through the many battles of life a victorious winner and positive role model and leader - is just nothing short of a miracle. I marvel reading her accounts and the way in which she has drawn on the strength of God to carry her through even the darkest of circumstances.
I know you will be blessed reading this! Diana Savage's book engages from the torn edges of a heart around a glowing flower on the cover to the enticing chapter titles inside. Savor one chapter a week? I doubt I can wait that long to read the next one, but I will try. Because Diana gives enough in just a couple of pages to contemplate in deep thought. Her powerful message of the promise of hope and encouragement from God has already lifted me from Chapter 1: I am looking forward to the meditations in four parts and eagerly embrace Diana Savage's lovely writing style.

Editorial Reviews
This is the first of her non-fiction books I read, and I must say it was amazing! The author lays her heart open wide and becomes vulnerable and transparent in sharing her very private struggles in being a caregiver to her husband. I applaud her courage to do so and help thousands of other facing the same challenges. Just one year before my husband died my mother passed away. I had cared for her in my home for 4 years. W I have long been an avid fan of Ms. When I received the book last year I had no idea I would lose my precious husband just a few months later.
I never dreamed when it came in the mail what a great source of comfort it would be to me those nights I lay in bed crying. Each short devotional started with a scripture and must say each one was just what I needed at the moment. Kirkpatrick would share a personal story of her experiences. She was completely honest about how the fatigue and stress sometimes brought about feelings of exasperation, anger, and at times even resentment.
I had experienced some of those at one time or another in caring for my mother, and was struggling with guilt I could not reconcile. She helped me realize that I was not some horrible person for having them. This book is a must read for all those being a caregiver and all the struggles and confusion that go with it. This would make an excellent gift for anyone you know who is a caregiver. It is a small book but very powerful. I would like to thank Jane Kirkpatrick for the opportunity and privilege to review this book.
I received this book free from the author.
