                    Living with Illness
                    
                        
                        Living with illness certainly feels nothing like a blessing. In the 30 text and audio meditations and practices that comprise Days of Grace,  Mary 
Earle—who has suffered for years from chronic pancreatitis—suggests that illness might be filled with grace as well as 
pain, with Christ's presence as well as fear.

                A RAGING QUESTION
                
            We are taught to be loving and humble, so what are we to do with our anger?
            
        
             
                
                BROKEN, WE HEAL
                
            It is often by acknowledging our own wounds that we gain empathy enough to help others.
            
        
             
                
                IS GOD PRESENT IN ILLNESS?
                
            Though illness is never welcomed, there are ways to move past the pain and learn more about ourselves and God's love.
            
        
             
                
                RECOGNIZING DEPRESSION
                
            If you find yourself with several of the symptoms that indicate depression, and they last more than a few days, there is help.
            
        
             
                
                SURVIVING THE STORMS IN LIFE
                
            Our goodness or our faith cannot insulate 
us from the common 
experiences of life. Tragic events come into our 
lives regardless of who we are. 
And they sometimes strike so suddenly.
            
        
             
                
                THE GREAT TEMPTATION
                
            We all have to 
fight the temptation to try to run the world, or at 
least that part of the world 
that is close to us and that affects our 
daily lives.
            
        
             
                
                THE POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES OF GUILT
                
            Although no one wants to feel guilty, guilt can help us do those things that don't come easily.
            
        
             
                
                WINNING IS FOR LOSERS
                
            Knowing how to lose is a prerequisite to winning, because it is only through the mistakes that you make along the way that you learn how to win.
