Описание: Sometimes we need to stop being so concerned about doing everything perfectly and learn to find things that make us smile. This book contains some very serious short stories dealing with such things as suicide, depression, death, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. But life is not all bad. We need to look for the beautiful things God has blessed us with and find ways to be servant leaders for others. We can turn a test into a testimony.
