Find peace, hope, and joy again.
“I could not put this book down. The words were like salve to my soul.”
Bad things happen in this world, and no one is immune. The cup you are served can be spilled or shattered at any moment. Then what?
In Drinking The Cup You Are Served, author Connie Hagen tells her own story of how life crashed around her—suddenly, unexpectedly, and cruelly. Even as a licensed counselor, Connie faced terrible circumstances over which she had no control.
As Connie slowly moved through years of struggle, she discovered practical steps she could take to live fully again, beyond any horrible circumstance. There are things you can do, too, to move forward in the wake of tragedy or trouble.
This book offers acknowledgment of your pain and food for your soul in the truth of God’s promises. You will come to understand that God is the one who can restore your soul—if you let Him. He is the light in your darkness and will sit with you in your pain and show you the way forward.
Whatever cup life has served you, be assured you can sit with it, drink from it, and move forward.
