Synopsis:
Do you long for something more in your relationship with God?
The good news is that “something more” does not mean “doing more.” God is not waiting for you to get your spiritual life “right.” He wants to be with you right where you are.
The real question is not “What does God want from you?” but “What does God want for you?”
Sharon Jaynes understands what it’s like to have a “glory ache”—a longing to experience God’s presence on a daily basis. She also knows how easily working for God can get in the way of intimacy with God. And she’s discovered that we tend to make our faith journey much too hard.
In A Sudden Glory, Sharon uses Scripture and story to help you erase the line between your “spiritual life” and your “daily life” as you enter the sanctuary of God’s presence even in the middle of your busy, messy day. Here you will find your eyes opened to moments of sudden glory in which the Creator assures you of His love as you live and move and have your being in Him. Here you will discover true freedom—the freedom of experiencing God in a deeper and more intimate way than ever before.
Includes Bible study and discussion guide.
My Review:
What a way to start reading about God and the relationship He would gladly lavish with you.
Author Sharon Jaynes has put together an awesome book that will tell you what God wants from us and how to understand how to go about getting it.
Do you long for more, ache for more, search for more of God? Well this book is put together to tell you how to get just that.
The synopsis explains a lot about the book and I certainly to not want to give any thing away, but I will say that I enjoyed every page of this amazing book. The scriptures and the time spent in prayer along with it was Well Spent! I also thought that putting the Bible study and discussion guide along within the book was awesome.
Pick it up today and please let me know what you think.
So due to the above, I am giving this book a Breath of Life ratings of:
Five Clock Rating!!!
Disclosure: I did not receive this book for my honest opinion and review. But these opinions are my own and yours may differ.
