Life isn't always what you want . . . but it's what you've got!
If you need a fresh breath of joy in your life, this book is just the prescription for you. Barbara Johnson can help you look for "life's little sparkles," even in the midst of life's most crippling sorrows.
Barbara has the wit of an Erma Bombeck, but she is a survivor of four devastating experiences that equip her with the credentials to help others work through their own pain. Her husband was in a near-fatal accident and slowly recovered from severe, debilitating injuries. She lost one son in Vietnam, another son to a drunk driver, and a third to the homosexual lifestyle. And recently Barbara herself was diagnosed as having adult-onset diabetes.
But despite her difficulties, Barbara has learned that though pain is inevitable to us all, we can choose to pick the flowers instead of the weeds.
Barbara will teach you how to release that bubble of joy within you - to claim God's promise to "fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy" (Job 8:21, TLB).
