Excellent Information on how to stay focused on our spiritual path!
Format: Paperback
I accidentally purchased this book. I intended to get the actual book instead of the study guide.
I did order the actual book and it is incredibly helpful!
As a person in recovery for codependency, I have struggled all of my life with being nice and respectful to everyone no matter how I was treated. It is exhausting, and created so much anxiety and uncertainty. The insight from this book, has shown me how to stay calm , deliberate and focused on my spiritual path.
In recovery, Step 3, we are invited to make a decision to turn our will and life over to the care of God. This book has shown me what has been missing in my recovery. I have allowed toxic people to distract, belittle, humiliate me all in the name of being a Christian, and tolerating everyone and their toxic behavior. Even people in the church! This information has validated my need to be mindful and be strong in my faith, as I live out Gods plan for my life. I have put people before God...yep. No one is more important to me than God. Now I can live my truth and be more effective in Gods will for my life.
It truly seems to be my healing journey of putting God first in my life. It is a decision that is at the core of my existence! Thank you Gary Thomas for addressing the concerns of evil on our path and to be resilient and follow only that still small voice and silence the loud, obnoxious voices of those who add nothing to our life. Life giving read for me!
