I’m a Brazilian christian. I praise the Lord for your life and ministry. I’ve purchased your book God is in the small stuff for your family and I was so blessed! I was just looking for something to help me to do my duties as a christian housewife in this world that lead us so far away from God’s ancient paths and when I saw your book on the shelf of my favorite bookstore. That moment I thought maybe there is hope for me. And now this word about cheerfulness… since I became a christian I long for being full of this joy. I ask God that people around me could see this joy in my eyes, but most of the time when I am in trouble I look sad. I wander and pray to learn the same secret Paul learned to be joyful in my union with the Lord no matter what happens to me. Thanks a lot. God bless you.
