Here is a GOOD little book I encourage everyone to read.  This should take no more than an hour, but just a great resource of hope.  You can find this at your local library or you can buy online or from your local book store.  Max Lucado is one of my favorite authors.  He is one of the best spoken authors I have ever found.  He speaks in a simplicity that uses real life examples.  Anything of his you may read you will most likely enjoy.
