When living with a chronic illness, the feeling of No one gets it! can shift from an occasional fustration to a constant grievance, steering one's spiritual walk onto shaky ground. In Why Can't I Make People Undersatnd?, Lisa Copen, founder of rest Ministries, provides unique insight into why people crave the understanding of those around them when they are suffering with a chronic condition. This book reveals and adresses the hidden aggravations many chronically ill people deal with and answers tough questions: * How does your attitude affect wheather you get the understanding you seek or not? * Should you pray for others to change their attitude about your illness? * Why do some prayers get answered, but with poor results? * How should you respond when people say hurtful things about your chronic illness? * Is it okay to get mad at God and express your tree feelings? * How can your relationship with Christ help all of the above become less important?
