Ask Him for Encouragement and Ask Him for Hope

"The days pass and oftentimes we forget—no we don’t even think about appreciation and gratitude. Jane Trufant Harvey has written a wonderful reminder for everyone to stop and take a deep breath, smell the flowers and say thanks to God for all the gifts given.

This little book, Ask Him for Encouragement passed into my life at just the right time. A crisis was brewing in my life and I was stuck on worry. Instead, I began reading the small reminders and then looking up and reading the Bible versus that accompanied each little saying and it soothed me, while putting my troubles into perspective.

Harvey’s little book allowed me to think about my life and grow closer to the Lord with her gift book. Thank you, Jane Harvey. Armchair Interviews says: A great gift for yourself or someone you care about."

"As a librarian and former owner of a children's bookstore in New Orleans, I have reviewed hundreds of books. I have written countless articles noting the applicability and worthiness of particular books to create curriculum. When Jane showed me her book Ask Him...I was immediately struck by its sweet simplicity. Straight from the heart come messages that are so familiar. She reminds us to take care of ourselves by surrounding ourselves in God's love. It will inspire young children, teenagers, and adults, young and old, to think about the simplicity and beauty of His love. For me, that is the business of writing -- the art of touching others."

Thank Him

“Jane, just wanted to let you know how I appreciate my Thank Him book.  Everyday it reminds me that there are many wonderful things to be grateful for.  I have sent one to my Mom who is fighting ovarian cancer and I know it helps her get through the day.  You are a true inspiration. 

Thank You”

“Thank Him! is a remedy for our inner vacuum cleaner-- that force the whisks us deeper and deeper into ourselves. That inner-pull can make us so serious, and so seriously unhappy. Jesus constantly reminds us that the path to happiness is a step outside of ourselves--a turn to the other. Thank Him lifts our hearts joyfully, gratefully to God and reminds us of all the little gems of grace that we encounter daily. Life is full of quirks and spins and turns and its all part of a big beautiful plan. Thank God for little reminders like Thank Him!”

“In a busy world of opportunities and blessings, gratefulness is sometimes overlooked.  “Thank Him” is a wonderful inspiring and beautiful reminder that I keep handy so not to forget.  More important to remember is that blessings are meant to be shared and by that act of sharing you discover the root of true happiness.  This book inspires one to do that.  Thanks Janie for sharing your gifts in writing this book.”

“Dear Jane,
Saints Alive! succinctly captures the wisdom and humanity of an incredible group of holy men and women whose words speak to us today.  The short quotations provide us with quick jolts of human comfort, spiritual inspiration, and practical advice -- while making us realize that these saints struggled with the same issues that face us today.  The book’s format makes for easy presentation that can remain visible for as long as one chooses.  I value the copy that was given to me.”
Brother Ray Bulliard, FSC

“Saints Alive! is a constant reminder of our call to dignity and even heroism in everyday life. The saints' quotes are so credible because they were lived out. They represent a community of real life witnesses to faith, hope, and love who had the same problems that we do and who practiced what they preached. Their tried and true words ring out like a clear bell in today’s world as these special souls pray for us in heaven.  In our busy world we are tempted to coast through daily existence, but the saints bring us to our senses and remind us to live richly, to drink deeply and even just to calm down. Saints Alive is a great gift and hopeful sign!”

"Dear Janie,
Bless you, How serene a feeling to know our challenges in life are not new.  Those before us have experienced them also.  “Saints Alive” is a book of encouragement.  I cherish the secrets of true happiness and inspiration found in this book...simply said, simply lived.  My gratitude goes to Jane, my friend, for sharing her gifts in bringing this book to us simply and beautifully written."
