Love, Patience and Understanding - Words from the Heart

By: Carol B. Pangalos

Love, Patience and Understanding - Words from the Heart helps us cope with many aspects in life that are unpredictable. Love teaches us to appreciate and value our family and friends while they are here with us. Life is short and we never want to have everlasting regrets once our loved one is no longer with us. We do not want to go through life asking, Why didn't I do that, or why wasn't I there to help when they were in need? Why was I too busy? In Patience we are taught to remain calm in many situations. Dealing with an aged parent, a crying child or a job that we dislike, can be very taxing on us. I find that when we are at the end of the rope, it is better to count to three, take a deep breath and exercise patience. Hopefully, by practicing this exercise the lack of patience will diminish. There may be times when we should do this exercise more than once a day. When we are patient, life around us seems much easier on everyone near and far. With Understanding we realize we are not the only one who has troubles or heartaches. To ask a question such as Why? and never receive an answer is very puzzling. Such a small word, yet so powerful never knowing the answer. The reader will gain insight of how we should count our blessings, appreciate our family and friends and never look back on what could have been. Look forward to tomorrow. A bright smile, a compliment and words of kindness, along with the soft touch of a kiss will bring comfort and peace to all.

Sistergirl Devotions

Keeping Jesus in the Mix on the Job

By: Carol M. Mackey

In November 1934 as the United States and Japan drifted toward war, a team of American League all-stars that included Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, future secret agent Moe Berg, and Connie Mack barnstormed across the Land of the Rising Sun. Hundreds of thousands of fans, many waving Japanese and American flags, welcomed the team with shouts of "Banzai! Banzai, Babe Ruth!" The all-stars stayed for a month, playing 18 games, spawning professional baseball in Japan, and spreading goodwill. Politicians on both sides of the Pacific hoped that the amity generated by the tour-and the two nations' shared love of the game-could help heal their growing political differences. But the Babe and baseball could not overcome Japan's growing nationalism, as a bloody coup d'état by young army officers and an assassination attempt by the ultranationalist War Gods Society jeopardized the tour's success. A tale of international intrigue, espionage, attempted murder, and, of course, baseball, Banzai Babe Ruth is the first detailed account of the doomed attempt to reconcile the United States and Japan through the 1934 All American baseball tour. Robert K. Fitts provides a wonderful story about baseball, nationalism, and American and Japanese cultural history.

We're Not That Different

Two Sisters' Religious And Spiritual Journeys

By: Carol Morgan

Were Not That Different: Two Sisters Religious and Spiritual Journeys takes a personal approach to comparative religion and spirituality. It promotes religious tolerance by examining how two women constructed their current spiritual and religious beliefs. During the 1940s and 1950s, Ann Morgan and Patricia Smith grew up in the same Catholic family and went to church faithfully. Patricia stayed with the religion and used it as her anchor in life. Ann became a nun, then left the convent and embarked on a spiritual quest towards New Age and the metaphysical world. In a world where many wars are fought over religion, it is important for people to gain the knowledge of other religions besides their own. Were Not That Different helps spread the information necessary to promote religious tolerance. And ultimately, it illustrates how two seemingly different schools of spiritual thought arent that different.

Preparing for the New Jerusalem

Seeing the Light at Last

By: Carol L. Briggs

WAKE UP, YOU SLUMBERING CHRISTIANS!...This author has never written a book before, and had never planned to...until the Lord woke her early one morning at 4:30 A.M....September of 2009...and very clearly said, "Type this title on your computer, PREPARING FOR THE NEW JERUSALEM." She immediately jumped up, turned on the computer, typed the title at the top of a "new document." and, has been on a spiritual whirlwind ever since.Her story may be very much like yours...encouraged to be self-sufficient, obsessed with getting a degree and then a career, marrying and juggling career and family 24/7. In their family, Sunday was the only time they even heard the name of Jesus mentioned (in the worship service sermon), and if she was tired and slept in on that morning, never heard that name all week long...let alone realized that she could have a personal relationship with her savior.However, read how all of the coincidences (good and bad) that were easily explained away at the time could actually, with hindsight, be traced back to the Lord being with her even from "before conception" and how it took her 45 years to wake up to that truth.After you read about her adventuresome teaching career around the world, her counsel to her brothers and sisters in Christ may touch just the right chord to give you a "wake up call" for Jesus in these last days.
