How much of our Christian work has been abortive because we have persisted in initiating it for ourselves, instead of ascertaining what God was doing, and where He required our presence! We dream bright dreams of success. We try to command it. We call to our aid all kinds of expedients, questionable or otherwise. At last we turn back, disheartened and ashamed, like children who are torn and scratched by the brambles, and soiled by the quagmire. None of this had come about if only we had been, from the first, under God's unerring guidance.

Explore 12 scriptural truths that, if experienced, can awaken the church to the greatness Jesus intended for her.

This book has helpful and insightful information on how to excel in life by unleashing the full power of motivation and courage. The circumstances surrounding my dropping out from college were such that I had no immediate control over. Ten years after I dropped out from college, there was a void in me which nothing seemed to fill until I went back to pick up my academic pursuits from where I left off. All I wanted at first was to go back and complete my college education, but once I found myself back on my feet, reunited with my books, I could not stop until I got a degree. Going back to school after such a long time and going all the way to get a master's degree wasn't all that easy, but I found the right motivation to keep pushing until all my academic dreams had come true.

Even when finding oneself engaged in interstellar war, good form must be observed.

Kein Tag hat sich stärker ins kollektive Gedächtnis gebrannt. Die Bilder, die Geschichten, die Konsequenzen. Doch die Worte derer, die den 11. September tatsächlich erlebt haben, fehlten fast zwanzig Jahre lang. Garrett M. Graff hat diese Worte gefunden, er hat alle Dokumente, alle Interviews zusammengetragen, hat die Stimmen der Einsatzkräfte, der Zeugen, der Überlebenden versammelt und daraus eine überwältigende Erzählung kompiliert - vielstimmig, erfahrungsecht, im O-Ton.

À Bordeaux, Daniel Darret, ancien combattant de la branche militaire de l'ANC, mène une vie modeste et clandestine, hanté par la crainte que son passé ne le rattrape.

Spannend geschrieben ist dieser Bericht über die letzten Jahre des Kaisers der Franzosen. Die Biographie setzt ein mit der Abdankung Napoleons 1815 und seiner Verbannung auf die kleine Mittelmeerinsel Elba. Freilich: Die Autoren sind keine modernen Historiographen. Vielmehr wurden die Texte 1901 veröffentlicht, rund 30 Jahre nach der deutschen Reichsgründung und unter der Ägide des Kaisers Wilhelm II. Es dürfte reizvoll sein aufzuspüren, an welchen Stellen man das der Biographie anmerkt.
