When the trials of life seem too much to bear, joy can feel beyond reach. However, with words of encouragement and hope, author Ganel-Lyn Condie reassures readers that joy is not only possible but also well within our grasp as we choose to turn to the Lord with our burdens. The next in the popular With God series, I Can Choose Joy with God is a powerful compilation of essays written by women of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that offers a compelling look at the struggles they faced and how they found joy even in their darkest hours. From parental concerns to financial hardships to debilitating anxiety, these personal accounts demonstrate the incomparable strength that can be harnessed through faith in a loving Heavenly Father. Though no one can avoid being tossed by the tempestuous sea of mortality, everyone can find true joy as they hold tight to the lifeline of salvation Jesus Christ provides.

Life can be tough and there are times that are tougher than others. I love the title of her book which is a reminder that we have a choice when times are tough, and we can choose joy at any time during our trials. It might take a while, and it's certainly not easy, but we can get there.

There are five parts to this book: Gifts, Marriage, Health, Family, and Mission, and each part has two stories. The women who share their stories are honest about their feelings and how they handle their trials. They are short so there are lots of details left out, but there is still enough to truly feel what each of them have gone through.

We all have trials and burdens in our lives, and how we handle them defines who we are. I liked this book because these women are wonderful examples of how to handle tough situations. Even though their situations and experiences are vastly different, the answer is the same for each of them. This is an inspiring book that I would recommend to everyone!
