New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst unveils her heart amid shattering circumstances and shows readers how to live assured when life doesn't turn out like they expected.

What do you do when God's timing seems questionable, His lack of intervention hurtful, and His promises doubtful?

Life often looks so very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a moment, but others shatter us completely. We feel disappointed and disillusioned, and we quietly start to wonder about the reality of God's goodness.

Lysa TerKeurst understands this deeply. But she's also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Lysa invites us into her own journey of faith and, with grit, vulnerability, and honest humor, helps us to:

  • Stop being pulled into the anxiety of disappointment by discovering how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations.
  • Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes.
  • Discover the secret of being steadfast and not panicking when God actually does give us more than we can handle.
  • Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us.
  • Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God's truth.

Soft, Good Smelling, Cleans Great!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
This is easily my favorite facial cleanser I have used TO DATE. The first thing I always notice with hygiene products is the scent, and you can trust me when I say it's the best smelling scent you'll recieve on any Male product. Scent - The best way to describe it would be Pine, vanilla, with a refreshing kick. It is SO nice! Cleansing - This is, surprisingly, one of the best facial cleansing products I've ever used. It goes on gently, and does not have that "burning" sensation that some products leave on your face. It washes off softly and leaves my face feeling VERY smooth. The only small problem I've run into is a little bit of dryness left on my cheeks, but my skin is VERY sensitive so it's understandable. A very small amount of moisturizer fixes that easily! Conclusion - It cleans my face very gently, and leaves it feeling clean, smooth, and hydrated! The scent is fantastic, unique, but not too strong. I recommend this to ANYONE! And would be an amazing gift!!!

Fantastic facial cleanser
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
This stuff is really good. I've been using it for a year now. I usually hate facial cleansers like Cetaphil because they dry your face out and smell like farmers soap. This one has a light musky smell and really makes you feel refreshed. I will keep buying this stuff as long as they keep making it.

Just buy some!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
Have been looking for a new product to replace my previous expensive cleanser, and couldn't be happier with this. A little bit does the job and feels great. Along with the matching moisturizer it's a win win combination! 70 year old male.

Awesome
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
Might go to facial cleaner for every day use. All the products from marlowe are awesome no exception. The scent kind of has a slight pine to it. I have bought several times now
