I stumbled upon this book by what I thought was an accident. Although now, I am not so sure it was an accident... over the past several months, I have really been having some inner struggles with my faith. don't get me wrong, I believe in God, and Jesus, and Heaven but don't feel like I have the relationship with God that my heart is seeking... I have been having lots of conversation with those around me and their churches and beliefs and have been thinking about possibly attending some different churches to figure out where I fit in. I read this book in a few hours, and felt moved. It gave me the courage I needed to seek the faith that I want and I feel I am finally being proactive. This Sunday, we are attending a new church and feel it is a huge step in this journey of "finding my faith."
I really feel like I have some amazing influences surrounding me right now and that makes this desire for a stronger faith even greater. Thanks to you!
"Seek the Lord while he may be found: call on him while he is near."
-Isaiah 55:6-7
Elizabeth, I luv this and your heart for "wanting more". I read pieces of this book (a family member owned it) but I've heard great things about it. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah! God is good isn't He? He can use a 4 year old to show His glory. Amazing.
