Chicken Soup for the Christian Soul

Chicken Soup for the Christian Soul
Chicken Soup for the Christian Soul is a collection of stories and quotes from different authors, such as Corrie ten Boom, Dick Van Dyke, and Mother Teresa. One in particular was the story called The Last Straw by Paula McDonald. This story was about a mother who was trying to teach her children the real meaning of Christmas. The method she used was the act of kindness one to another but she done it in a way that her children would understand. These great stories were themed on love, forgiveness, faith, hope, and charity that will deepen your compassion for others.
Not only does this book have wonderful stories it has great quotes. One quote that stuck out to me was a quote from Mother Teresa. “Let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, money can be got, but they need your hearts to love them. So, spread your love everywhere you go; first to all in your home. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next-door neighbor.”
This book will warm your heart and remind you that you are not alone no matter how low or painful your circumstances may be. It will give you the satisfaction that God is always watching over his children.
