    About this ebook

    Are you feeling hot one minute and cold the next but no fever? You may be going through a season of menopause. Are kids driving you crazy? You may be parenting while menopausal. Perhaps you feel the need for extra prayer. In this atypical devotional, you will find comfort in knowing you are not alone. These real-life stories will cause you to laugh out loud or snicker to yourself as you see them playing out in your mind.
    This collection focuses on the uncomfortable physical realities of menopause symptoms including hot flashes, unusual hair growth, and mood swings. But understanding, acceptance, and appreciation of profound changes in life can be applied to any change in our physical, social, or emotional circumstances. Angela shares personal examples that reveal critical strategies for managing change: a sense of humor, reliance on scripture, and an unflinching faith.
    “If you giggle, blush, weep, or reach for a fan, you may be experiencing menopausal symptoms or you may simply be enjoying her excellent writing” (Debbie Taylor, author, Sweet Music in Harlem).
    “Menopause Ain't No Joke ain't no joke! LOL. I have read many devotionals and Christian books in my lifetime, but nothing compares to this lighthearted yet uplifting and humorous take on the insights and experiences of Christian writer Angela Verges. Sit down, relax, and expect to be enlightened, encouraged, and delightfully amused!” (Sheila Thomas, editor and publisher, Prayer and Praise Magazine).
