Jan walked in as a wife, and mere hours later, walked out as a widow.\nOver time, she found the healing only God can provide, summarized so tenderly in Isaiah 61: \"To give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.\"\nIn The Oil of Joy for Mourning, Jan shares the comfort and hope she received from a loving God. Because the first year after the death of a loved one often carries the most grief, these pages contain 365 devotional thoughts, offering a seed of support and healing for every day of that first difficult year. The book is not limited to the first twelve months of grieving, but speaks to widows and widowers even years later.\nIn Bible times, oil was both a balm for wounds, as well as a perfume. Whether you have lost a loved one yourself or want to encourage a grieving friend, let The Oil of Joy for Mourning bring the soothing and refreshing fragrance of hope. In these pages, the grieving can find a love letter from Jesus, the Master who came especially to comfort broken hearts.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1565633032\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1565633032.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Sheble, Jan\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
