About the Book
Some days, we wake up in the morning and feel like we are on top of the world. However, by the end of the day, we feel like the world has turned against us because we have gone through a trial, or a series of trials, in one day. By the end of the day, our head hurts, our stress level has increased, and we seek an outlet. For many, that outlet is food, drinking, smoking, or drugs. We find out that “Life is like a Box of Chocolates” and based upon other contributing factors, we do not know what to expect or more importantly what to do. We feel like our trial is unique and no one could possibly relate. We feel isolated and defeated because we do not know what to do when we face trials.
Box of Chocolates is designed to walk you through scenarios that are based on real-life events. The book enables readers to realize their problems are not unique. Readers will begin to realize their trials are similar to other people and they are not alone. The book consists of 365 scenarios that are categorized by WORK – FAMILY – LIFE issues for each day of the year. The book contains a five-step application process to reveal the provisions God has made for our every need. The scenarios included in the books can happen to anyone, so the reader is encouraged to depend on God and promises He has made to us through the Holy Bible.
Step two of the five-step process can be facilitated in a group or alone. The facilitated session enables participants to think about the “what if” and gives them an opportunity to proactively respond to issues they may face or someone they know may face. During the session, participants have the opportunity to respond to scenarios and share his/her life experiences.
About the Author
Nicole Smith was born and raised in
Nicole’s passion for writing began in elementary school when she would write skits and short stories. However, like many young children, the dream of becoming a playwright or author was not realized because of other paths she had taken in life. It was not until January 2005, when Nicole realized there was more to life than she could imagine. God began to show her visions of her purpose in life.
God led Nicole to write a simple, creative, spiritual book that everyone can relate to for spiritual awareness, growth, or encouragement. The writing of her first book (Box of Chocolates) did not come without trials in her personal life. The book was written during a very difficult time in her life. Nicole’s first true love is writing, but she never pursued the dream until God through the Holy Spirit gave her the words to write.
