  1. Wow, I think everyone should read this book! Stress does such a number on all of us (some more than others.) It gives proof that god wants us to have a good life and that he will provide for us because that is his promise - great news for people like me! I always fret over health and having the nec staples one needs to sustain. I'm really glad I read this review tonight, Thanks.
