Are you dealing with stress in your life? Or should I ask how much stress are you dealing with? Barb Roose has written an engaging book about handling life’s stressors with help from God using several spiritual practices. Barb is no stranger to stress, and she offers humorous and transparent glimpses into her life and how she has handled trials. Barb’s admissions of her failures to cope remind the reader of our humanity and our common struggles.
But using spiritual disciplines such as sabbath rest, prayer, Scripture, and surrender to God can take the focus off ourselves and put it on our loving God. Barb provides practical exercises and questions that engage the reader and force her to put life trials into God’s perspective.
I found this book to be easy to read and relate to, and the spiritual practices are truly helpful.
