G. K. Edward has seen too many people crippled by disappointments. He has dubbed disappointment the "silent killer" because it can destroy the joy, peace, and zest for life in a person's heart and shatter families and relationships.
Pastor Edward wrote this inspirational guide to share the insights he developed in his ministerial work and as a life coach and teacher. In compassionate, down-to-earth language, he tackles the problem of disappointment and explains how to regain hope and move forward.
After discussing how disappointment may affect you in the here and now, Edward explores how it affects you at an emotional and spiritual level. Whether you are disappointed in love, in your children, or in yourself, he explains, your feelings are often caused by the failure of hope. But you don't have to fall into discouragement and despair. Instead, you can make the conscious decision to stop your emotions from mentally affecting you.
In addition to offering practical advice about dealing with disappointments when they occur, Edward includes many Bible passages and examples of God's love to provide comfort and to help with your spiritual healing. With God's support and insight, you can regain your optimism and love of life.
