over many years—this book is dedicatedwith gratitude and affection  \n# Introduction\n\nA good story of positive faith is always a powerfulpick-up for the spirit.To read how someone meta difficult situation,found a solution and attaineda creative outcome makes one realize that he canachieve a similar result in his own problems.It ishelpful,therefore,to study the manner in which aperson has gone about facing a difficulty.Add tothis the sequence of steps which brought about agood outcome and we tend to identify with suchexperiences.  \nEvery human being has a story,and if you lookdeeply into people's lives there are drama,tragedy,pathos,humor and victorious achievement rivalingany portrayed on the stage.Shakespeare said,  \n\"All the world's a stage,  \nAnd all the men and women merely players...  \nAnd those players are each of us as we confrontand deal with every situation that develops in our pas-sage across the years.We discover within ourselvesthe stuff of which romance is made.There is really  \nnothing quite so thrilling as the manner in whicheveryday people struggle,pray,think and work toproduce,out of great difficulty,those glorious resultsthat give luster to their earthly lives.  \nMy own basic interest has always been in people.Their life stories have ever fascinated me.Accord-ingly,my talks,articles and books have been filledwith narratives about people from every strata oflife.It has been my good fortune to encounter suchpersons in close association and under all kinds ofconditions.The person-centered illustrations I haveused have come from actual personal situations,rather than from academic material found in books.Vital,living people are portrayed as they walk andtalk and struggle and achieve.This has been thecentral theme of both oral and written materialpresented through the years.  \nMany of these moving human stories about plain,simple people and some famous personalities of ourtime have appeared in books we have published.However,there is a vast store of personal narrativethat has never been used in book form.These storieshave appeared in sermons or over radio,or havebeen seen in television presentations.Since suchhuman experiences of faith have been very inspira-tional to me personally,I decided to gather togethera selection of the best of them and publish a bookcontaining stories of positive faith.  \nThe advantage to the reader of such a volume  \nis that he can look there for spiritual experiencesto meet his present need.Accordingly,the chaptersare designed to help one seek guidance and insightfor himself as he reads of the experience of otherswho have found answers and attained victory.We","cbCaiofAiNyCMxUi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiofAiNyCMxUi","pdf",6499534,196,"English","# Introduction\n## Purpose of the collection\n## Reader guidance and spiritual benefits\n## Source
