Description
My intention in writing this book is to share with you the intimacies of my heart, and to share with you the events and insights leading up to a personal, powerful, and life-changing experience of God's unconditional love. My heart aches for those with whom I share the hurt, those who have been surpressing spiritual pain within their own and often times repressed experience. My hope is that in sharing my struggle to let go and let God be God, and do what God does best, namely to love and to heal those who will come to Him with all of their brokenness and need, that you too might come closer to peace in your own life.
Can you find identity in one of these groups?
* Those who have been hurt by fear and insecurity based upon a harshly taught understanding of God's law without real knowledge of His love;
* Those having sadly experienced divorce and the guilt coming from that failure with its painful confusion as to what really happened;
* Catholic women troubled by the Catholic Church's teaching on birth control and its affect on their peace of mind;
* Those troubled by the Catholic Church's requirement of integral sacramental confession as the only ordinary means of receiving forgivness for sin;
* Protestants and Evangelicals counting on Baptism alone, apart from any growth in personal righteousness, as affecting their eternal reality.
Did you find yourself listed above?
The question everyone needs to answer is this, can I receive God's mercy and love and can I return that love to Him? This capacity is evidence of and at the very heart of salvation!
