The Grave, a Poem

If you're looking for a planning resource to help you deal with funerals and weddings, this book is worth its weight in gold. Pastors are repeatedly called on to perform these ceremonies in an infinite variety of circumstances, yet there's no one-size-fits-all service, so it's a constant challenge to come up with meaningful and appropriate material that witnesses to the Lord's power. In this book an experienced minister shares a wealth of ideas that help you tailor services to individual needs, making these complicated occasions ones of impact and success for your ministry. The Funeral And Wedding Handbook shows you how to ... * Deal with difficult funerals ... suicides, infants, non-Christians, and many more * Effectively comfort the hurting * Plan memorable weddings from premarital counseling to the recessional march * Be prepared for the overlooked details and unexpected events that often arise during funeral and wedding services Robert Blair's book stands alone as a comprehensive resource for both ministers and caregivers. Though systematic, the book is filled with examples from Blair's 40-plus years in the ministry, which makes the book dynamic, credible, and filled with wisdom. Underlying this work is Blair's humble, but all-encompassing devotion to Christ. An essential resource for all involved in funerals and weddings, this book is one of a kind. Mike Inman Chaplain, Hospice of Siouxland Sioux City, Iowa I have found Robert Blair's The Funeral And Wedding Handbook to be very helpful. It is well-written, informative, practical, and contemporary for today's minister. It is a great resource book, both for students preparing for ministry and those who have for many years served the Lord's people during these very important stages in life. Having this book is like having a good friend who's always ready to answer the how to and what to questions that come up in these situations. I highly recommend it to all ministers.

Madge Lambert

A moving true story of love on the front lines. It was July 1944 when Madge stepped onto a troopship that was to carry her thousands of miles away from home. Only twenty years old and not long qualified as a nurse, she had signed up to serve in the Burma Campaign. She would be based on the Indian border, near the frontline where a fierce battle was raging between Allied forces and the Japanese. As Madge arrived in Chittagong, she wondered how she would adapt to the ever present danger of invasion and to life in a military hospital. She spent long, exhausting hours nursing the badly-injured young soldiers in her care, but found strength in her friendship with the other nurses. And then, one day, she met Captain Basil Lambert . . . Could their fragile, new found romance survive the terrifying final months of war? Heart-warming and poignant, Some Sunny Day by Madge Lambert is a story of courage, sacrifice and the power of true love.

A nurse. A soldier. A wartime love story.

The Grave. A Poem

Make your subconscious mind your bi**h! Did you know that over 80% of the decisions we make stem from our subconscious mind, at an emotional level? While we make decisions consciously, the truth is that the subconscious mind runs the show for most of us. In fact, it is as if we just run on autopilot and our conscious part of the brain just 'rubber stamps' the decisions or preferences from our subconscious mind. In simple terms, while we may seem to be consciously in control of our thoughts and actions, the truth is that our conscious mind is hardly even aware of what's happening, as the subconscious mind runs the show! We (our conscious self) are like puppets that our subconscious mind controls whether we are awake or asleep! Here an interesting fact; when you let your subconscious mind operate with no semblance of conscious control of what it concentrates on and makes habitual, the probability of your life being desirable (to you and others) is slim. When your subconscious mind rules you, you operate on impulse, which translates to lack of self-discipline, chronic procrastination, low productivity, you having bad habits, you not having high emotional intelligence and much more. If all this sounds familiar and you want to change all that, here is good news for you; you can turn the tables to your favor such that you make you lord over your subconscious mind instead of the letting it rule. How then can you turn the tables to your favor? This book will show you how. More precisely, with this this book, you will: Build a comprehensive understanding of your subconscious mind so that you know just how powerful it is and how much control it has over you Understand why being the one in control over your subconscious mind will work in your favor Find specific steps you can take to gain conscious control over your subconscious mind Understand the place of awareness in becoming lord over your subconscious mind How to use awareness to your advantage taking reins over your subconscious mind Know the rules of the game that you MUST adhere to if you are to increase your chances of success Understand how to grow your subconscious mind's 'muscle' to your benefit Discover other strategies you can use to make reprogramming your subconscious mind a lot easier and more effective Learn much, much more! By reading this book and taking action, you will be among the few that don't act out of impulse (which is your subconscious mind controlling your conscious mind). You will be more purposeful and directional in your actions so that you ultimately move closer to the version of yourself that you wish to become i.e. someone with good habits, who doesn't procrastinate often, someone who is productive, someone who is disciplined and such.

Subconscious Mind

Edward Young

The poetry of the Graveyard School - gloomy meditations on mortality, often composed in churchyards - was immensely popular in 18th-century England and was an important forerunner of the Romantic period and a major influence on the development of the Gothic novel. Yet, despite the unquestioned significance of the Graveyard Poets, critical attention has been scant, and until now there has been no critical anthology of their works. "The Graveyard School: An Anthology" features works by thirty-three authors and provides a broad and comprehensive examination of the phenomenon of Graveyard poetry. Included are seminal works, such as Robert Blair's "The Grave," Thomas Parnell's "A Night Piece on Death," and excerpts from Edward Young's "Night Thoughts," as well as once-popular but now little-remembered poems by authors like Mark Akenside, James Beattie, and James Hervey. Of particular interest in this collection is its inclusion and discussion of authors not normally associated with the Graveyard School, such as Alexander Pope and Washington Irving, as well as a number of female poets, among them Susanna Blamire and Charlotte Smith. Edited by Prof. Jack G. Voller, who provides an introduction and extensive annotations throughout, this volume of melancholy and macabre verse is certain to be welcomed by scholars and students of 18th-century and Gothic literature, as well as those readers interested in the darker side of literature.
