Heal from yesterday's pain and find hope for tomorrow with this inspirational guide — and learn how God's faithfulness is working for your good, even when times are tough.
If we are truly blessed to be a blessing, then we can take the lessons we learn in hardships and turn them around to help others navigate through their seasons of struggle. Hope and healing are the two words God has given us. Hope for tomorrow and healing from yesterday. Shaun Nepstad believes God wants to use our stories to bring hope and healing to others.
When it comes to life, we've all asked, "Is there more?" We want to believe there's more to life than what we're currently experiencing. But the problem is, so much in life promises more but doesn't deliver. There's actually only One who can deliver the "more" we need, and that is Jesus. He delivers more than what we ask for or can even imagine. Consistently. Without fail. No matter what our situation looks like. Don't Quit in the Dip inspires us to keep fighting. To keep believing. And to keep helping us experience God's full blessing.
“When the student is ready, the teacher will appear .” – is a phrase I have heard numerous times throughout my life. It’s never wrong! In this case, the “teacher” came in the form of a book named, Don’t Quit In The Dip by Shaun Nepstad.
The author refers to dip as seeing where you want to be, but no matter how hard you try, it seems you can’t get there. DING!! DING!! DING! I know that feeling all too well. It feels like you’re a hamster on a wheel – running with no destination in sight.
“Movement is not the same as progress… It makes you think you’re going places when you’re really just maintaining.” Shaun Nepstad
Please read the statement above a few times until it sinks in and motivate you to start making progress. There are so many treasures in this book! If you are using a highlighter – it will look like a colorful Christmas tree when you are done. I don’t particularly like marking in my books, but I couldn’t resist because there are so many passages that I will need to refer back to when/if the situation arises.
Author Shaun Nepstad shares stories of how the dip can happen to us and how we can overcome it.
I recommend this book to anyone who finds themselves in the dip of life. There is always hope if we stay focused on God’s plan for us.
