{"product_id":"2940157161279","title":"Byways of Blessedness","description":"This book was first published in 1904. James Allen described this as \"A book for all. It aims to reveal the sublime principles which lie hidden in the common facts of daily life.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book expounds those right states of mind and wise modes of action which, when adopted under trying circumstances, bring about results fruitful of blessedness. The principles put forth are applicable to the common circumstances of daily life, in which all are frequently involved, and upon the wrong or right use of which all our misery or happiness depends; and those who put these principles into practice will very rapidly prove for themselves that circumstances are subordinate to the human will, and as the potter molds the unsightly clay into shapes of beauty, so the spiritual potter (he who has acquired the right state of mind) brings out of \"adverse conditions\" results that are precious, beautiful, and blessed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book instructs how to meet, understand, and master the everyday difficulties and trials of life. When trouble or dif?culty is fully understood, it is ?nally conquered and passes away. This book shows how every day can be made fully blessed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A brightly written book is Mr. James Allen's new volume, entitled Byways of Blessedness.\" --Light\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Mr. Allen's latest book appeals to us as being his best. Particularly are the chapters on 'Forgiveness' and on 'Silentness' full of wise thought, calmly yet impressively uttered. It is a useful book for a quiet hour.\" --The Christian Life\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A book which, with careful reading, Christians of all shades of creed will find beneficial, for it inspires to the pursuit of the loftiest ideals of holy, happy living. Moreover, the work is written in a terse, lucid, and forcible style, contains numerous clear-cut gems of rich thought, and is evidently the result of ripe experience and rare reflection. For these reasons, then, I heartily commend Byways of Blessedness. --Christian Million\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapters Include:\u003cbr\u003eRight Beginnings\u003cbr\u003eSmall Tasks and Duties\u003cbr\u003eTranscending Difficulties and Perplexities\u003cbr\u003eBurden-Dropping\u003cbr\u003eHidden Sacrifices\u003cbr\u003eSympathy\u003cbr\u003eForgiveness\u003cbr\u003eSeeing No Evil\u003cbr\u003eAbiding Joy\u003cbr\u003eSilentness\u003cbr\u003eSolitude\u003cbr\u003eStanding Alone\u003cbr\u003eUnderstanding the Simple Laws of Life\u003cbr\u003eHappy Endings","brand":"James Allen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47112406466800,"sku":"2940157161279","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940157161279_p0.jpg?v=1764091474","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940157161279","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
