Rose from Brier
A Priceless Treasury of Helpful Thoughts for those who are Ill
Amy Carmichael was inspired to write this book by reflecting that most books on comfort for sick people are written by those who are well. Thus they miss the mark. Even those written by those who have suffered, often the book is only presented after the author is well.  Rose from Brier is different.
Thus, from her own personal experiences she has gathered a priceless treasury of helping thoughts for those who are ill. This is why it speaks so plainly to the conditions many find themselves in. It is a book for all who suffer.

All Things For Good (Thomas Watson) (#17)
$8.75First published in 1663 by the title A Divine Cordial, Watson simply but profoundly explains how God does in fact make all things – good and bad things – work together for the good of His people. By far the most useful explanation of Romans 8:28 ever written.
Watson said that two of the greatest obstacles he faced as a pastor were:
1) To make unbelievers sad, so they recognize their need of God’s grace, and:
2) To make believers joyful, in their experience of God’s grace!He wrote this book to make an effort to undo the second difficulty: by explaining Paul’s teaching in Romans 8:28. As for his own experience, Watson wrote this the year after he and 2,000 other ministers were expelled from the Church of England, and thus exposed to much hardship and suffering. This is the rich exposition of a faithful man who lived in circumstances when only faith in the Word of God could bring him such a confidence.

A Lifting Up for the Downcast (William Bridge) (#1)
$9.75These thirteen sermons on Psalm 42:11, preached at Stepney, London, in the year 1648 are the work of a true physician of souls. In dealing with believers suffering from spiritual depression, Bridge manifests great insight into the causes of the saints’ discouragements such as great sins, weak grace, failure in duties, want of assurance, temptation, desertion and affliction.
A correct diagnosis is more than half the cure, but Bridge does not leave his readers there. He gives directions for applying the remedy. For example, in dealing with ‘great sins’ he says:  “If you would be truly humbled and not be discouraged; not be discouraged and yet be humbled; then beat and drive up all your sin to your unbelief, and lay the stress and weight of all your sorrow upon that sin.”
The general causes of spiritual depression are the same in every age. Downcast Christians today can find help here as surely as did past generations.

The Afflicted Man’s Companion: A Directory for Persons and Families Afflicted with Sickness or any Other Distress (John Willison)
$16.00Written with the kind intention (according to the author) “that the afflicted may have a book in their houses, and at their bed-sides, as a monitor to preach to them in private, when they are restrained from hearing sermons in public.” Originally published in 1737, it has been revised and reprinted numerous times in the 19th century by the American Tract Society.
As much as Job’s companions were miserable comforters, this volume is one that would have been of great comfort and consolation to that deeply afflicted man so long ago. We live in a world of sin and misery, and any book that can help those visited by affliction is worth its weight in gold.
