Book Description
I heard him staggering down the hallway, banging into the banister sloshing his drink of choice, most likely a gin and tonic, along the way. As he reached for her door, I felt my airways constrict and the walls of the room close in around me. My body stiffened, and my senses numbed, as I listened for the faint squeak of my bedroom door to open softly. I am, 17 year-old aristocratic-born Candace Spencer, and I quickly recognized the monster that prowled the darkness of my sanctuary. My breath faded as the muscular figures slithered into my room and onto my body. My nightmare only lasted a few minutes several times a week but I lost a part of my soul a little bit more during each horrific moment. I closed my eyes and lived one more death as he devoured me, but tonight I vowed it would end. The prominent and respected businessman revered by the community would not return to my bedroom again. Never again! I had no idea how long it had been away; a Spiritual Guide's time was measured very differently compared to human lifetime. Was it a day later or had one or twenty years passed? Right now I had my first assignment in my new form, Mari Santiago, a 16 year-old teenager struggling to survive her family's domestic violence and sexual assaults in the tough streets of New York. The Whispers Within reveals the parallel of two dissimilar lives between two teenagers: one alive and the other dead. Mari comes to know Candace in a manner she would have never dreamt. Candace, having lived life at the opposite economic strata from the inner city life Mari was accustomed to, is only equipped with whispers of encouragement to defeat Mari's demons. How will Candace handle returning to earth as a spirit when she did not deal with her own nemesis while alive? Will Mari be consumed by the demons that surround her or will Candace pave a way for Mari to flee them? Will they both come to know each other's demons? Will Candace's whispers be enough for Mari to conquer her demons while building a new life?

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
There exists a voice within each of us, a quiet whisper amidst the clamor of the world. It speaks not in words, but in feelings, intuitions, and deep knowing. This voice is our inner guide, our compass, always pointing us towards our truth. I recall a time when this inner voice was particularly strong. I was at a crossroads in my life, facing a decision that would have a profound impact on my future. Fear and uncertainty clouded my mind, each path seeming fraught with risk and the potential for regret. Yet, amidst this turmoil, a gentle voice emerged, urging me towards a path I had not considered. It was not a voice of logic or reason, but one of deep inner knowing. It felt like a pull towards a destiny that was meant for me, a path aligned with my true self. We are constantly bombarded with external noise, the opinions of others, societal expectations, and the relentless chatter of our own minds. This noise can easily drown out the subtle whisper of our inner voice, making it difficult to discern our own truth. At the crossroads of choice, this inner voice becomes paramount. It cuts through the confusion, providing clarity and direction. It speaks to our deepest desires, our values, and our innate wisdom. It guides us towards choices that are in alignment with our authentic selves. The inner voice is not always easy to hear. It requires stillness, presence, and a willingness to listen. It may come as a gentle nudge, a sudden insight, or a deep sense of knowing. The more we cultivate our ability to listen, the clearer and stronger this voice becomes. The inner voice is our compass, guiding us through the twists and turns of life. It is not infallible, but it always points us in the direction of our highest good. It may lead us down unexpected paths, challenge our preconceived notions, and push us beyond our comfort zones. This voice is not about seeking comfort or ease. It is about aligning with our truth, even when it is uncomfortable or challenging. It is about embracing growth, expansion, and the unfolding of our highest potential. Trusting this inner voice requires courage. It means letting go of the need for certainty and embracing the unknown. It means having faith in ourselves and the wisdom that resides within.

Book Description
Do you feel like you can’t “find God”? What if he is waiting for you right where you are? In this intimate and down-to-earth book, Danielle Bean encourages women of all stages of life to slow down and experience the little whispers of God that are present in their everyday moments. Danielle writes about real, heartfelt moments that every woman can relate to. The constant striving after achieving more can be relieved. Even more, the ability to do less with more intention can provide a growing awareness of God’s constant presence and interior peace (even if the exterior is still chaotic). Whisper is perfect for anyone looking to develop a more intimate relationship with the ever-present God. Grab a copy and a cup of tea (or a glass of wine) and dive in to learn from Danielle how to grow closer to God. “Danielle Bean has done it again! Whisper: Finding God in the Everyday is an invitation to be everyday mystics, finding extraordinary encounters with God in our ordinary days. If we will be attentive, there is space for grace to speak to our hearts, leading us closer to our Lord, even as we care for the many needs we encounter in the vocation of marriage and family life.” –Kimberly Hahn, wife, mother, author of Chosen and Cherished: Biblical Wisdom for Your Marriage “She had me at the title, but throughout Danielle’s book Whisper, I found God in baseball, broken pieces, and in ‘not overthinking it.’ This book is beautiful and intimate, itself a whisper from God.” –Sonja Corbitt, creator of LOVE the Word®️ Bible study method “Danielle’s encouragement and practical advice to simply rest and be still was exactly what I needed to read as a young mom who is a recovering busy perfectionist—and the words we all need to hear in a world that emphasizes doing instead of simply being. If you’re exhausted and looking for rest, this book is for you!” –Chloe Langr, author of Letters to Women: Embracing the Feminine Genius in Everyday Life
