Msgr. David L. Greenstock |
$15.35 (paperback) |
"Here is a storehouse of Christian wisdom for people facing the most vulnerable and desparate times of their lives: the onseet of serious illness or the approach of death. These pages are also essential reading for Christian caregivers and for wise souls who want to prepare now for illness or death, either of which can come any day, even to those of us in perfect health. With refreshing clarity and fidelity to Scripture, the author, Msgr. David Greenstock, will show you how to let Jesus Himself give you strength. You'll learn how to make better use of the sacraments to gain spiritual sustenance; you'll even discover how to transform your sufferings into occasions for communion with God. Best of all, you'll learn how to resist the temptations that especially afflict sick people, and how best to pray, when you're sick, to the God who assures you He will wipe away all your tears."
