Beauty for Ashes

Very good read for those who have or are having to deal with trauma.

I never received the book I was extremely disappointed and angry I didn't do anything about it

I have been going through emotional issues. Joyce understands and has helped

As someone who has dealt with past trauma, I found this book helpful. I recommend it

My dear friend, who had undergone sexual abuse by her uncle and grandfather before age 5, and again by her domineering husband at age 35, found healing truth, guidance, and steps toward recovery in this wonderful, bible-based, advice book by Joyce Meyer. Another of Joyce Meyer's books, "Managing Your Emotions Instead of Your Emotions Managing You" has helped continue her recovery and given her tools to deal with life in a healthy manner which helps her to realize joy - something which had eluded her until now.Managing Your Emotions Instead of Your Emotions Managing You

This is Meyer's Magnum Opus. It is one of the few books on Abuse on the market that actually focuses on a solution rather than the problem. I recommend this book highly to anyone who has suffered from systematic child abuse.

It amazes me that Joyce Meyers has used her horrible experiences to help others. She is an awesome testimony as to how God can use the bad things in your life for good.This book taught me so much about, first of all, how to use the Bible. I will never read the Bible the same again, the Bible is now a tool I use to live my life. Secondly, she taught me how to get past my past.I have bought this book for 2 friends! I highly recommend this book. Thank you Joyce and thank you God!!!!!

In my spirit I knew I was denying the fullness of God's grace. I was having difficulty overcoming certain strongholds in my life, but this book helped me to take a real look at my way of doing things and helped me to focus on areas where God was leading me differently. It isn't God's will that the enemy keep us tied in such bondage.One point that Joyce made that stays strong in my heart, 'for all the wrongs that people have done to you, No One BUT GOD can 'repay' you.' That person may truly be sorry, but NOTHING they can say or do will EVER make up for the injustice you suffered at their hand(s). And in the same respect, you can't make it up to someone that you have treated unjustly, either. Recompense (payback to both you and them) must come from God.I enjoyed this book very much. It is a must have for my book collection! I'm sure you will feel the same way, too!
